经颅多普勒超声检测对脑出血患者预后的预测价值

目的探讨经颅多普勒超声(TCD)检测对脑出血患者病情程度及预后的预测价值。方法选择首次发病且发病24h内入院的54例脑出血患者,分别于入院第1、7、21d进行床旁TCD检测,并分别对TCD的主要指标平均血流速度(Vm)及脉动指数(PI)与脑出血体积、神经功能缺损评分(MESSS)、日常生活能力评分(BI)进行相关分析。结果TCD异常主要表现为高阻力、低流速的血流频谱。连续监测发现,降低的血流速度逐渐增高,同时增高的脉动指数则逐渐降低。出血量、MESSS评分与大脑中动脉的Vm呈负相关,与PI呈正相关;而BI与大脑中动脉的Vm呈正相关,与PI呈负相关。结论TCD指标异常程度有助于判断脑出血患者的病情及评估预后。     

假肿瘤性胰腺炎10例影像诊断

本文报告了10例假肿瘤性胰腺炎（PseudotumorousPancreatitis），结合文献报道分析了该病的临床表现、影像学征象、手术探查结果和病理表现。笔者认为：本病在组织学论断前难以和胰腺肿瘤鉴别，对年龄较轻且无黄疸的患者可作经皮穿刺活俭及随诊明确诊断，对年龄较大或有黄疸者应考虑手术探查。     

Ultrasonography of rotator cuff tears: a review of 500 diagnostic studies

Ultrasonography of the rotator cuff has been shown to be of value in diagnosing rotator cuff tears. This report summarizes our experience with our first 500 diagnostic examinations. All patients were examined in the hyperextended internal rotation view with commercially available high-resolution real-time ultrasound equipment. Patients were diagnosed as having a rotator cuff tear if a focal echogenic lesion or a defect within the rotator cuff was identified. This study confirmed the value of ultrasonography for the diagnosis of rotator cuff tears. Accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity all exceeded 90%, and correlated with surgical findings. This was better than arthrography in the same patient population. Ultrasound is an accurate noninvasive method of examining the rotator cuff for the presence of tears. We suggest that rotator cuff ultrasonography is the procedure of choice for the diagnosis of tears if adequate instrumentation is available.     

Asymptomatic metachronous metastatic renal cell adenocarcinoma to the gallbladder

Summary A case of asymptomatic metachronous metastatic unilateral renal cell adenocarcinoma to the gallbladder detected five years after resection of the primary renal neoplasm is reported here. The lesion was diagnosed by contrast enhancement of a gallbladder mass on abdominal computerized tomography scan and by color Doppler sonographic study of the gallbladder, both of which demonstrated the vascular supply to the intraluminal gallbladder mass. The biological behavior of renal cell adenocarcinoma is reviewed. Guidelines for the evaluation of intraluminal gallbladder masses are suggested.     

Three-dimensional color Doppler sonography and uterine artery arteriography of fibroids: assessment of changes in vascularity before and after embolization.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy of three-dimensional color Doppler sonography and uterine artery arteriography in depicting changes in fibroid vascularity before and after embolization. METHODS: Preembolization and postembolization three-dimensional color Doppler sonography and selective uterine artery arteriography were retrospectively compared in 15 patients who underwent uterine artery embolization for treatment of symptomatic fibroids. Three-dimensional color Doppler sonography was performed by using a scanner with color power angiographic imaging capability. Vascularity was quantified by using an estimation of power-weighted pixel density as described by our group in previously published studies. Uterine artery arteriography was performed by using a standard selective microcatheter embolization technique. For purposes of comparison, fibroids were classified as either hypervascular or hypovascular relative to myometrial vascularity before and minutes to several hours after uterine artery embolization. Changes in fibroid vascularity (i.e., from hypervascular to hypovascular) as depicted by three-dimensional color Doppler sonography were compared with those shown on uterine artery arteriography and classified as being in agreement or disagreement. RESULTS: In 13 (87%) of 15 patients there was agreement; in 2 (13%) of 15 there was disagreement. In both cases of disagreement, three-dimensional color Doppler sonography showed collateral flow not depicted by uterine artery arteriography The mean reduction in quantitated vascularity after uterine artery embolization was 44% (range, 19%-78%). CONCLUSIONS: Three-dimensional color Doppler sonography accurately depicts fibroid vascularity and in some cases can reveal collateral flow not depicted by uterine artery arteriography.     

彩色多普勒超声血流图在心脏手术中的应用(附19例病例分析)

在心脏手术中应用多普勒彩色超声心动仪直接探测和观察19例患者,其中风湿性心瓣膜病11例、先天性心脏病7例、左心房粘液瘤1例。风心病及左房粘液瘤患者手术前、中检查的结果基本一致;先心病术前诊断符合率为84.2％(5/7),术中诊断符合率为100％。本文对检查结果作了分析讨论,并提出符合我国情况的有关检查设想。     

超声显像与膀胱镜对膀胱肿瘤的诊断价值

对经手术和病理证实的８３例膀胱肿瘤进行超声显像和膀胱镜检查的对比性分析。结果表明，膀胱镜对膀胱肿瘤的诊断符合率为９７．５％，略高于超声显像符合率的９５．２％；但对膀胱肿瘤的术前分期，膀胱镜检查尚存在局限性，而超声显像可弥补膀胱镜检查的不足。本文超声显像对膀胱肿瘤的术前分期准确率达８９．５％。超声显像对小于０．５ｃｍ的小膀胱肿瘤之检出率不如膀胱镜高。因此在常规检查以及对肿瘤的术前分期时，应以超声显像作为首选，同时结合膀胱镜检查，可进一步提高膀胱肿瘤的术前诊断正确率。     

Role of transrectal ultrasonography in the evaluation of azoospermic men with low-volume ejaculate.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the incidence of distal ejaculatory system defects with transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) among patients evaluated for azoospermia. METHODS: Forty-two patients with low-volume ejaculate and azoospermia were evaluated by physical examination, serum follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone level determination, karyotyping, selective screening for cystic fibrosis mutations, and TRUS. RESULTS: On physical examination, in 29 patients (69%), either 1 (12 patients) or both (17 patients) of the vasa deferentia could not be palpated. In the group of 17 patients with bilateral involvement of the vasa deferentia, the ultrasonographic imaging universally showed bilateral absence or hypoplasia of the seminal vesicles with bilateral agenesis of the vasa deferentia and nonvisualization of both ejaculatory ducts. In the patients with a unilateral abnormality on physical examination, the ultrasonographic imaging showed absence of the ipsilateral seminal vesicle in 7 patients and the hypoplastic seminal vesicle in 5. In the group of 13 patients with normal physical examination findings, a variety of obstructive causes were diagnosed by TRUS examination. CONCLUSIONS: According to this study, TRUS appears to be a sensitive method for evaluating the anatomy of the distal ejaculatory system. Its safety and low costs make it a good alternative to the other invasive and expensive methods.
