应用锥形束CT对种植区牙槽骨质量分类方法的改良研究

目的    应用锥形束CT（cone beam CT，CBCT）测量种植区牙槽骨质量并结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法对骨质量分类方法进行改良，以期为提高牙槽骨质量分类的准确性提供指导。方法    选择2015年10月至2017年10月在呼和浩特市口腔医院种植科进行种植修复的196例患者术前CBCT影像资料，应用 Invivo5诊断设计软件测量306个种植位点的牙槽骨皮质骨厚度和松质骨密度（皮质骨与松质骨的CT值差值），以Lekholm和Zarb分类法为基础结合测量数据对骨质量进行改良后的量化分类。结果    牙槽骨皮质骨厚度为0.18 ~ 2.89 mm，中位数为0.92 mm。皮质骨与松质骨的CT值差值为88.5 ~ 667.8 HU，应用百分位数法找到33.3%和66.6%对应的数值分别为297.8 HU和356.1 HU。依据此数据结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法将196例患者的306个种植位点骨质量分为4类，其中Ⅰ类骨种植位点46个（占15.0%），Ⅱ类骨104个（占34.0%），Ⅲ类骨114个（占37.3%），Ⅳ类骨42个（占13.7%）。结论    结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法，应用CBCT测量种植区牙槽骨质量并进行分类方法的改良，可为临床医生术前评估牙槽骨质量提供一定参考。

Comparison between conventional CT and grayscale inversion CT images in the assessment of the post-operative spinal orthopaedic implants

AimTo compare the accuracy of the inverted greyscale CT versus the conventional CT in the assessment of post-operative spinal orthopaedic implants and osseous fusion.Methods50 patients who had CT as part of their routine spinal implant follow up were evaluated for the presence of fusion, fracture and loosening with conventional CT and with greyscale inverted CT images. 3 independent observers assessed the images 2 months apart. Diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the conventional and greyscale inversion images relative to the reference standard were calculated. Agreement with the reference standard was assessed using Cohen's kappa for conventional and greyscale inversion images.ResultsCorrect classifications increased when using the greyscale inverted CT images for each reader compared to conventional CT images (40–46, 39 to 42 and 41 to 44 (out of 50)). Inverted images demonstrated better agreement with the reference standard than conventional grayscale images for assessment of fusion (kappa of 0.588 for inverted CT versus 0.484 for conventional CT) and loosening (kappa 0.386 for inverted versus 0.293 for conventional). Sensitivity was increased for assessment of fusion and loosening. McNemar's test performed for assessment of sensitivity differences showed statistical significance (p = 0.038 for fusion and p = 0.0313 for loosening).ConclusionGreyscale inversion CT is a useful adjunct which has advantages (improved sensitivity and better agreement) over conventional CT imaging in cases of fusion and loosening of metallic implants following spinal instrumentation. We recommend the use of both the greyscale inversion CT images and conventional CT imaging when assessing post-operative spinal orthopaedic implants.     

A comprehensive 3D CT based classification of intertrochanteric fracture

IntroductionDespite advancements in surgical techniques complications like implant failure is very common after the fixation of intertrochanteric fractures. Classifying these complex fractures based on plain radiographs underestimates the complexity of these fractures which in turn leads to complications. We propose a comprehensive classification of the intertrochanteric fractures based on 3D Non Contrast Computed Tomography (3D NCCT) scan.Material and methodsA total of 102 patients (51 males and 51 females) with intertrochanteric fractures were included in this study conducted over a time period of 22 months in a Tertiary care center in North India. NCCT proximal femur of the intertrochanteric fracture patients was done to formulate a new CT classification system and classify all fractures. Intra and inter-observer reliability was tested using kappa variance.ResultsNew classification system was proposed which included 3 main and a total of 6 groups. All the fractures were classifiable into the new system. Kappa variance of the study showed a good intra and interobserver reliability (0.95 and 0.90) proving clinical agreement of the classification.ConclusionThis new 3D-CT based classification has the advantages of being easy, comprehensible with high intra and inter-observer reliability. This 3DCT based classification can prove to be useful to detect occult intertrochanteric fractures undetectable in plain radiographs as well as choosing the optimum treatment plan.

Manejo y seguimiento radiológico del paciente post-COVID-19

Most of the patients who overcome the SARS-CoV-2 infection do not present complications and do not require a specific follow-up, but a significant proportion (especially those with moderate / severe clinical forms of the disease) require clinicalradiological follow-up. Although there are hardly any references or clinical guidelines regarding the long-term follow-up of post-COVID-19 patients, radiological exams are being performed and monographic surveillance consultations are being set up in most of the hospitals to meet their needs. The purpose of this work is to share our experience in the management of the post-COVID-19 patient in two institutions thathave had a high incidence of COVID-19 and to propose general follow-uprecommendations from a clinical and radiological perspective.     

多层螺旋CT定量评估慢性阻塞性肺疾病病情的价值

目的探讨多层螺旋CT(MSCT)定量评估慢性阻塞性肺疾病病情的价值。方法选取2017年8月～2018年7月在湖州市第一人民医院就诊的73例慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者作为研究对象,按照病情轻重分为Ⅰ组(轻度患者17例)、Ⅱ组(中度患者32例)、Ⅲ组(重度患者24例),并选取同期于该院体检的健康者20例为对照组。所有研究对象均行MSCT低剂量扫描,观察比较各组管腔面积(Ai)、支气管壁面积百分比(WA%)、管壁厚度与体表面积比值(T/BSA)、壁厚度与直径比值(TDR),同时予以肺功能检查,采用定量CT气道分析软件分别测量气道相关参数,并用Siemens Pulmo软件Pearson定量分析其相关性。结果对照组、Ⅰ组、Ⅱ组、Ⅲ组的FEV1均呈逐渐下降趋势,FEV1/FVC呈逐渐上升趋势,差异均有统计学意义(P0.05)。对照组、Ⅰ组、Ⅱ组、Ⅲ组的WA%、T/BSA、TDR比较,均呈逐渐上升趋势,Ai呈下降趋势,差异均有统计学意义(P0.05)。FEV1与WA%、TDR之间呈负相关(r=-0.291,P=0.000;r=-0.473,P=0.000),FEV1/FVC与WA%、TDR之间呈正相关(r=0.285,P=0.000;r=0.472,P=0.000)。结论 MSCT扫描及定量分析可为COPD患者气道病变情况提供可靠的评估信息。
