It is of clinical importance to dif- ferentiate HCA from other liver tumors, especially hepatocel- lular carcinoma （HCC）. This study aimed to evaluate the char- acteristic features of HCA by conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound （CEUS） findings. METHODS： Twenty-six patients （10 males and 16 females; mean age 36.2＋5.0 years） with 26 histopathologically proven HCAs were retrospectively identified. According to the maxi- mum diameter of HCAs, they were divided into three groups： 〈30 mm, 30-50 mm, and 〉50 mm. Ultrasound examinations were performed with C5-2 broadband curved transducer of Philips iU22 unit （Philips Bothell, WA, USA）. For each lesion, a dose of 2.4 mL SonoVue~ （Bracco Imaging Spa, Milan, Italy） was injected as a quick bolus into the cubital vein. Lesions＇ echogenicity, color-Doppler flow imaging and contrast en- hancement patterns were recorded. RESULTS： Grayscale ultrasound revealed that most of HCAs were hypoechoic （73.1%, 19/26）. Spotty calcifications were detected in 26.9% （7/26） of the lesions. Color-Doppler flow imaging detected centripetal bulky color flow in 46.2% （12/26） of the HCAs. CEUS showed that 73.1% （19/26） of the HCAs displayed as rapid, complete and homogenous enhancement, and 53.8% （14/26） showed decreased contrast enhancement in the late phase. There was no significant difference in enhance- ment patterns among different sizes of HCAs （P〉0.05）. Centripetal enhancement with subcapsular tortuous arteries was common in larger HCAs.展开更多

To this end, we generalize a laminar water hammer equation of Wang et al. （J. Hydrodynamics, B2, 51, 1995） to include arbitrary initial condition and variable viscosity, and obtain its solution by Green＇s function method. The pre- dicted characteristic WH behaviors by the solutions are in excellent agreement with both direct numerical simulation of the original governing equations and, by adjusting the eddy viscosity coefficient, experimentally measured turbulent flow data. Optimal WH control principle is thereby constructed and demonstrated.展开更多
