HIFU在牛肝组织中形成线形凝固性坏死的剂量投放研究

In Vitro Study on Dosage Level of HIFU for Formation of Line-shaped Lesion in Bovine Liver

探讨高强度聚集超声(High ntensity focused ultrasound,HIFU)在牛肝组织中形成线形凝固性坏死的剂量投放策略。首先在辐照深度2cm处用声强(ISAL)6500W/cm2的HIFU定点辐照牛肝1s得到一横径W为3mm的点状凝固性坏死。采用单个点状凝固性坏死相互叠加形成线形凝固性坏死时,相邻的两个单次辐照的空间间距D分别为1、2、2.5、3、4.5、5mm。当采用直线扫描形成线形凝固性坏死时,扫描速度V分别为1、3、6、7mm/s,往返次数为1。辐照结束后沿长度方向剖开,直视下观察最大剖面的损伤形态、范围、程度和损伤的完整性。结果表明,当D≤W时,采用单个点状凝固性坏死相互叠加能在牛肝中形成一个完整的线形凝固性坏死,当D>W时不能在牛肝中形成一个完整的线形凝固性坏死,且中间有正常组织的残留。当运动速度V为3mm/s,往返次数为1,采用直线扫描方式能在牛肝中形成了一个边界清楚、能量分布均匀、中间没有正常组织残留的完整的线形凝固性坏死。实验结果证实:依据单个点状凝固性坏死的声辐照和其大小确定形成线形凝固性坏死的辐照参数并进行剂量投放能够在组织中形成线形凝固性坏死。

The dot-shaped coagulative necrosis induced by a single HIFU exposure can be considered as a basis for HIFU ablation of tumour. For complete ablation of tumour mass with HIFU, the crucial point is to create a complete line-shaped lesion by way of dot-shaped coagulative necrosis. At the beginning of this in vitro study, a dotshaped coagulative necrosis with focal width （W） 3mm was induced in ox liver by HIFU （acoustical intensity （ISAL） 6500W/cm2 ; exposure time Is） at focal depth 2cm. And then, we investigated the formation of line-shaped lesion under two different modes, namely, multiple dot-shaped coagulative necrosis overlapping and linear scanning. Under multiple dot-shaped coagulative necrosis overlapping mode, line-shaped lesion is formed by the combination of multiple dot-shaped coagulative necroses. With acoustical intensity （ISAL） 6500W/cm^2 and exposure time ls for each single exposure, different intervals （D） between two successive single exposures （1mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3ram, 4.5mm, 5mm） were applied to obtain line-shaped lesion. Under linear scanning mode, the intensity （ISAL） 6500W/cm^2 and cycle 1 were set constant, and various scanning speeds （V） 1mm/s, 3mm/s, 6mm/s, 7mm/s were adopted to create line-shaped lesion. After the procedures, the tissues were dissected to obtain the maximum section of the line-shaped lesion. The results were as follows： under multiple dot-shaped coagulative necrosis overlapping mode, a complete line-shaped lesion could be formed when D≤W, while an incomplete line-shape lesion was formed when D〉W; under linear scanning mode, a complete line-shaped lesion could be formed using the scanning speed 3mm/s and cycle 1. The results validate that the complete line-shaped lesion can be created with the dosage and exposure parameters optimized for the dimension of a single dot-shaped coagulative necrosis as shown in this study.
