Natural course includes mechanical complications due to mass effect, myocardial infarction and aneurysmal rupture. Aneurysmectomy can be considered when it induces such complications. We demonstrate complete set of diagnosis, treatment and post-operative imaging of a huge SVG aneurysm that was successfully treated with surgical resection.展开更多

The paper reviews some obvious advances of fMRI in studies of acupoint specificity, and research methods and progresses of the resting state brain functional network in recent years, and raises the thinking about leading the resting state fMRI and the brain functional network into acupuncture-related studies, in the hope of probing into the effect and modulation of acupuncture on the default network, promoting development of acupuncture mechanism studies and strengthening scientific basis of acupuncture and moxibustion theories.展开更多
