New endoscopic ultrasound techniques for digestive tract diseases: A comprehensive review

Endoscopic ultrasound(EUS) is one of the most important modalities for the diagnosis of digestive tract diseases.EUS has been evolving ever since it was introduced.New techniques such as elastography and contrast enhancement have emerged, increasing the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of EUS for the diagnosis of digestive tract diseases including pancreatic masses and lymphadenopathy.EUS-elastography evaluates tissue elasticity and therefore, can be used to differentiate various lesions.Contrast-enhanced EUS can distinguish benign from malignant pancreatic lesions and lymphadenopathy using the intravenous injection of contrast agents.This review discusses the principles and types of these new techniques, as well as their clinical applications and limitations.

Visco chop-a new technique for nucleus separation for soft cataracts in femtolaser assisted cataract surgery

【正】INTRODUCTION Femtosecond laser technology,introduced clinically for ophthalmic surgery as a technique for creating lamellar flaps in laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK),has recently been developed into a tool for cataract surgery.Preliminary experience for femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery show appropriate safety and efficacy,and possible advantage over conventional cataract surgery[1-4].The ability of the femtosecond laser to fragment the lens results in the need for less ultrasound energy to be expended inside the eye.Several studies indicate that less effective phacoemulsification time is needed to emulsify the lens

Three-Dimensional Rigid-Plastic FEM Simulation of Bulk Forming Processes with New Contact and Remeshing Techniques

Some techniques such as die surface description, contact judgement algorithm and remeshing are proposed to improve the robustness of the numerical solution. Based on these techniques, a three-dimensional rigid-plastic FEM code has been developed. Isothermal forging process of a cylindrical housing has been simulated. The simulation results show that the given techniques and the FEM code are reasonable and feasible for three-dimensional bulk forming processes.

Adjustable muscle plication:a new surgical technique for strabismic patients with high risk for anterior segment ischemia

【正】INTRODUCTION Anterior ciliary arteries provide 70%of the vascular supply of the anterior segment.A significant interruption of the vascular flow of these arteries increases the risk for anterior ischemia.Although the frequency of this special condition is low after strabismus surgery(1:13 000)[1],its effects may involve substantial visual problems[2].We report the successful outcome of a new surgical approach for strabismus management in a case of high risk for anterior ischemia.Specifically,we show the correction of the horizontal ocular deviation by means of an adjustable muscle

New technologies and techniques to improve adenoma detection in colonoscopy

Adenoma detection rate(ADR) is a key component of colonoscopy quality assessment, with a direct link between itself and future mortality from colorectal cancer. There are a number of potential factors, both modifiable and non-modifiable that can impact upon ADR. As methods, understanding and technologies advance, so should our ability to improve ADRs, and thus, reduce colorectal cancer mortality. This article will review new technologies and techniques that improve ADR, both in terms of the endoscopes themselves and adjuncts to current systems. In particular it focuses on effective techniques and behaviours, developments in image enhancement, advancement in endoscope design and developments in accessories that may improve ADR. It also highlights the key role that continued medical education plays in improving the quality of colonoscopy and thus ADR. The review aims to present a balanced summary of the evidence currently available and does not propose to serve as a guideline.

A NEW COPY TECHNIQUE·FOR SPECIMEN GRATING IN MOIRE METHOD

A special X-radiography,used in obtaining the deformed specimen grating in in-plane moire method is introduced.The density of gridline is up to 50 lines / mm.This method is suitable not only for the copy of grating in fiat surface but also for that in curved surface.From unfolding the copy and superposing it with a reference grating,the moire effect arises.By processing this moire fringes with the digital image processing unit, the strain distribution would be obtained.Furthermore,the u-and v-displacement fields could be separated by the optical processing of this copy.The measurment sensitivity and accuracy become better simultaneously because of the fringe multiplication.Thus,this method makes it possible to measure the elastic-plastic strain precisely in any developable curved surfaces,for example, the surface of shaft,rotary-wing,cylindrical shell and cone shell etc.

New autologous material for the frontalis suspension technique:superficial temporal fascia

The frontalis suspension technique, which is a well-known surgical procedure, has been used for congenital ptosis for many years [1]. Several autologous and foreign grafts or materials have been preferred for this suspension, such as collagen, tensor fascia lata, palmaris longus tendon, deep temporal fascia, catgut, prolene, silicone, stainless steel, and supramid suture . Each of these have their own advantages and disadvantages; however, the superficial temporal fascia has not been used for the frontalis suspension method before.

New technique for identifying varieties resistance to rice blast

After 8 yrs lab experiments and field tests, an advanced technique for identifying varieties resistance to rice blast was developed by a research group in Plant Protection Institute, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences. With this technique, the inoculum was prepared on a maize-rice-straw-agar media which was suitable for sporulation of most rice blast pathogen isolates. To avoid possible virulence variation during the vegetative growth, the conidia were harvested and preserved for later different sets of resistance evaluation tests. A simple and precise new method—smear inoculation was used for infection. The experi-
