Application of multi-planar reconstruction technique in endovascular repair of aortic dissection

BACKGROUND Endovascular repair of aortic dissection is an effective method commonly used in the treatment of Stanford type B aortic dissection.Stent placement during the operation was one-time and could not be repeatedly adjusted during the operation.Therefore,it is of great significance for cardiovascular physicians to fully understand the branch status,position,angle,and other information regarding aortic arch dissection before surgery.AIM To provide more references for clinical cardiovascular physicians to develop treatment plans.METHODS Data from 153 patients who underwent endovascular repair of aortic dissection at our hospital between January 2021 and December 2022 were retrospectively collected.All patients underwent multi-slice spiral computed tomography angiography.Based on distinct post-image processing techniques,the patients were categorized into three groups:Multiplanar reconstruction(MPR)(n=55),volume reconstruction(VR)(n=46),and maximum intensity projection(MIP)(n=52).The detection rate of aortic rupture,accuracy of the DeBakey classification,rotation,and tilt angles of the C-arm during the procedure,dispersion after stent release,and the incidence of late complications were recorded and compared.RESULTS The detection rates of interlayer rupture in the MPR and VR groups were significantly higher than that in the MIP group(P<0.05).The detection rates of De-Bakey subtypesⅠ,Ⅱ,andⅢin the MPR group were higher than those in the MIP group,and the detection rate of typeⅢin the MPR group was significantly higher than that in the VR group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the detection rates of typesⅠandⅡcompared to the VR group(P>0.05).The scatter rate of markers and the incidence of complications in the MPR group were significantly lower than those in the VR and MIP groups(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The application of MPR in the endovascular repair of aortic dissection has improved the detection rate of dissection rupture,the accuracy of anatomical classification,and safety.

Fatigue life prediction of workpiece with 3D rough surface topography based on surface reconstruction technology

The fatigue performance of a workpiece depends on its surface quality.In traditional fatigue life prediction,the effect of surface quality is commonly accounted for by using empirical correction factors,which is imprecise when safety is of great concern.For surface quality,the surface topography is an important parameter,which introduces stress concentration that reduces the fatigue life.It is not feasible to test the stress concentration of different surface topographies.On the one hand,it is time-consuming and high-cost,and on the other hand,it cannot reflect the general statistical characteristics.With the help of surface reconstruction technology and interpolation method,a more efficient and economic approach is proposed,where FE simulation of workpiece with the reconstructed surface topography is used as a foundation for fatigue life prediction.The relationship between surface roughness(Sa)and fatigue life of the workpiece is studied with the proposed approach.

Accurate resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma using eOrganmap 3D reconstruction and full quantization technique

BACKGROUND For treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma(HCCA),the rate of radical resection is low and prognosis is poor,and preoperative evaluation is not sufficiently accurate.3D visualization has the advantage of giving a stereoscopic view,which makes accurate resection of HCCA possible.AIM To establish precise resection of HCCA based on eOrganmap 3D reconstruction and full quantification technology.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 73 patients who underwent HCCA surgery.All patients were assigned to two groups.The traditional group received traditional 2D imaging planning before surgery(n=35).The eOrganmap group underwent 3D reconstruction and full quantitative technical planning before surgery(n=38).The preoperative evaluation,anatomical classification of hilar hepatic vessels,indicators associated with surgery,postoperative complications,liver function,and stress response indexes were compared between the groups.RESULTS Compared with the traditional group,the amount of intraoperative blood loss in the eOrganmap group was lower,the operating time and postoperative intestinal ventilation time were shorter,and R0 resection rate and lymph node dissection number were higher(P<0.05).The total complication rate in the eOrganmap group was 21.05%compared with 25.71%in the traditional group(P>0.05).The levels of total bilirubin,Albumin(ALB),aspartate transaminase,and alanine transaminase in the eOrganmap group were significantly different from those in the traditional group(intergroup effect:F=450.400,79.120,95.730,and 13.240,respectively;all P<0.001).Total bilirubin,aspartate transaminase,and alanine transaminase in both groups showed a decreasing trend with time(time effect:F=30.270,17.340,and 13.380,respectively;all P<0.001).There was an interaction between patient group and time(interaction effect:F=3.072,2.965,and 2.703,respectively;P=0.0282,0.032,and 0.046,respectively);ALB levels in both groups tended to increase with time(time effect:F=22.490,P<0.001),and there was an interaction effect between groups and time(interaction effect:F=4.607,P=0.004).In the eOrganmap group,there was a high correlation between the actual volume of intraoperative liver specimen resection and the volume of preoperative virtual liver resection(t=0.916,P<0.001).CONCLUSION The establishment of accurate laparoscopic resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma based on preoperative eOrganmap 3D reconstruction and full quantization technology can make laparoscopic resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma more accurate and safe.

GIS as an Information Infrastructure for Recovery and Reconstruction after the Great East Japan Earthquake

This study considers the regional characteristics of the Tohoku region and the extent of the damage caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake and makes proposals for recovery and reconstruction of the areas affected by this disaster as well as for a reduction of the impact of natural disasters that may occur in the future with GIS （geographic information systems） as a social infrastructure positioned at the heart of the information infrastructure. Due to the fact that social media that used ICT （information and communication technology） was useful in the days directly after the disaster, it can be said that it is necessary to investigate the provision of an information infrastructure that uses ICT to reduce the impact of disasters. Therefore, this study proposes the construction of a geographical information database using GIS and the provision and sharing of information using social media GIS after discussion of the relationship between the development of the computerization of Japan and GIS as a valid example of using information systems for recovery and reconstruction after the Great East Japan Earthquake.

Three-dimensional digital technology-assisted precise tumor resection and reconstruction of the femoral trochanter and postoperative functional recovery:a retrospective study

Background The trochanter of the femur is a common site for bone tumors.However,locating the specificboundary of bone tumor infiltration and determining the surgical method can be challenging.The objective of thisstudy was to review the diagnosis,treatment,and surgical outcomes of patients with tumors or tumor-like changesin the femoral trochanter after computer-assisted precise tumor resection and hip-preserving reconstruction ofthe trochanter.Methods From January 2005 to September 2020,11 patients with trochanteric tumors(aged:18–53 years;sixmales and five females)were treated in Guangzhou First People’s Hospital.The cases included aneurysmal bonecyst(n=1),giant cell tumor of bone(n=2),fibrous histiocytoma of bone(n=1),endochondroma(n=1),andfibrous dysplasia of bone(n=6).For patients with trochanteric tumors,computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scanning were performed before operation to obtain two-dimensional image data of the lesion.Athree-dimensional digital model of bilateral lower limbs was reconstructed by computer technology,the boundary of tumor growth was determined by computer simulation,the process of tumor resection and reconstructionwas simulated,and the personalized guide template was designed.During the operation,the personalized guideplate guided the precise resection of the tumor,and the allogeneic bone was trimmed to match the shape of thebone defect.Results All 11 patients underwent accurate resection of the tumor or tumor-like lesion and reconstruction ofthe hip.In eight cases,the lesion was confined to the trochanter,which was fixed with large segment allogeneicbone,autologous iliac bone,and proximal femoral anatomic plate.In three cases,allogeneic bone,autologousiliac bone,and femoral reconstruction nail were used to fix the tumor under the trochanter.Postoperative Xray examination showed that the repair and reconstruction of the bone defect was effective,and callus bridgingbetween the allogenic bone and autogenous bone was observed 6 months after operation.All patients recoveredtheir walking function 3–6 months after operation.The duration of the follow-up period ranged from 6 monthsto 6 years.A patient experienced recurrence of endochondroma;pathological examination revealed chondrocyticsarcoma.The remaining 10 patients were treated with segmental resection and reconstruction.The operationtime ranged 2.5–4.5 h(average:3.2 h).Intraoperative blood loss ranged from 300 to 500 ml(average:368 ml).The local recurrence rate was 9.1%,and the overall survival rate was 100%.The average Musculoskeletal TumorSociety score was 27(excellent and good for eight and three patients,respectively).Conclusions Three-dimensional computer skeleton modeling and simulation-assisted resection and reconstruction of femoral trochanteric tumor is a new surgical technique,which might markedly improve the surgical effect,shorten the surgical time,increase the overall survival rate of patients with tumors,reduce the local recurrencerate,assist in the digitization and programming of femoral trochanteric tumor surgery,and improve surgicalaccuracy.

Study on the key technology of spectral reflectivity reconstruction based on sparse prior by a single-pixel detector

By studying the traditional spectral reflectance reconstruction method, spectral reflectance and the relative spectral power distribution of a lighting source are sparsely decomposed, and the orthogonal property of the principal component orthogonal basis is used to eliminate basis; then spectral reflectance data are obtained by solving a sparse coefficient. After theoretical analysis, the spectral reflectance reconstruction based on sparse prior knowledge of the principal component orthogonal basis by a single-pixel detector is carried out by software simulation and experiment. It can reduce the complexity and cost of the system, and has certain significance for the improvement of multispectral image acquisition technology.

RESEARCH ACTIVITIES ON LAND USE/COVER CHANGE IN THE PAST TEN YEARS IN CHINA USING SPACE TECHNOLOGY

Land use/cover change, which in China is characterized by urbanization resulting in a decrease in arable land in the east along with a large area of grassland being cultivated in the west, has been accelerated by rapid economic development in the last years. All of the above changes will affect sustainable development in the next century. The Chinese Academy of Sciences is conducting a study of land use/cover change over the last ten years based on the integration of remote sensing and GIS technology to establish a multitemporal database covering all of China. Fundamental data for land use/cover for the year 1996 has already been developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In order to reconstruct fundamental land use/cover data for the year 1986, a central data processing and analyzing system and a regional data acquisition, processing and analyzing system have been established and are joined together as a network. After the 1986 database is established, the comparative research on the reduction in arable land, urbanization, desertification, changes in forest and grassland, and lake and wetland land use/cover change will be carried out. In addition, a transect for a key regional comparative study was selected along the Changjiang (Yangtze) River. The driving forces of these changes also will be extracted. The result of this study will be not only make a contribution to global land use/cover change research, but will also support decision making for sustainable national development.

Current surgical practices of robotic-assisted tissue repair and reconstruction

This paper systematically reviewed and analyzed the recent publications of robotic-assisted surgeries in the field of tissue repair and reconstruction.Surgical robots can elevate skin flap more accurately and shorten the time of tissue harvest.In addition,robotic-assisted surgery has the advantage of minimal tissue trauma and thus forms minimal scar.The utilization of surgical robots reduces the occurrence of complications after oral radical tumor resection while achieving cosmetic sutures.Robotic-assisted radical mastectomy could radically remove invasive breast cancer lesions and achieve breast reconstruction in the first stage through the small incisions in the operation areas.Surgical robots enable precise microvascular anastomosis and reduce tissue edema in the surgical field.Robotic-assisted technology can help appropriately locate the target tissues at different angles during sinus and skull base surgeries and accurately place tissues during urethroplasty.The robotic-assisted technology provides a new platform for surgical innovation in the field of tissue repair and reconstruction.However,the uncertainty in the survival rate after tumor radical surgery,the increase of operating time,and the high costs are barriers for its clinical application in tissue repair and reconstructive surgery.Nevertheless,robotic-assisted technology has already demonstrated an impact on the field of tissue repair and reconstruction in a meaningful way.
