Objective:To explore the high-frequency ultrasonographic and clinical features of superficial intravascular tumors.Methods:Thirteen superficial intravascular tumor patients who underwent ultrasound examination form Beijing Jishuitan Hospital during 2016-2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The location, anatomic blood vessels, shape, size, boundary, internal echo, blood flow and clinical characteristics of the tumors were analyzed.Results:Among the 13 cases, most of the tumors were oval like or long strip, and a few were round like. All 11 cases of primary intravascular tumors showed hypoechoic mass; 2 cases of intravascular metastasis or recurrence showed solid hypoechoic with hyperechoic mass. Arterial blood flow spectrum was detected in 12 cases. Two patients with glomus tumor showed typical tenderness at the fixed point. Two patients had a history of bone tumors in the upper or lower extremities.Conclusions:High frequency ultrasound can clearly recognize the location of the superficial intravascular tumors, describe the morphological characteristics and sonographic features of the tumor, then help to make a more accurate qualitative diagnosis.

Purpose An automatic evaluation technology based on artificial intelligence and three-dimensional ultrasonography (3D US) is proposed for hip US inspection plane selection. This study aimed to evaluate the consistency of the alpha angle as measured using 3D US to select the section plane and two-dimensional ultrasonography (2D US) to manually select the Graf image, as well as to explore the feasibility of diagnosing developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) using 3D US and reconstruction technology. Methods A total of 216 infant hips were included and assessed by doctors using 3D US layer-by-layer. The researchers used a computer to identify the coronal images that met the Graf standard and then compared the alpha(X) values obtained with the alpha(G) values measured artificially by 2D US. Results Compared with 2D US, 3D US more clearly showed the relative positions of the ilium, ischia, and pubis. The measured alpha value of the optimal section obtained by 3D US showed good agreement with the measured alpha value of the standard Graf section. Conclusion The artificial intelligence and 3D US-based automatic evaluation technology for section selection and inspection for DDH showed good agreement with the Graf method based on standard sections.

Objective:To measure the pubo-femoral distance of hips of the infants diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ by high frequency ultrasound.Methods:A total of 1 084 infants(2 168 hips) diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ by ultrasonography were collected in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2019 to May 2020. The ultrasonographic examinations included Graf method and pubo-femoral distance measurement. The 95% medical reference value was adopted to confirm range of normal values of the pubo-femoral distance. And the differences of the pubo-femoral distance between different gender, age and bilateral hip were compared.Results:The pubo-femoral distance of hips diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ was (0.27±0.06)cm, the pubo-femoral distance of males was(0.27±0.06)cm, the pubo-femoral distance of females was (0.27±0.07)cm. The 95% medical reference value was 0.15-0.38 cm. The 95% medical reference value of males was 0.15-0.39 cm, and the 95% medical reference value of females was 0.13-0.41 cm. There were no significant differences between the sexes or between the age(all P>0.05). The difference between the bilateral hip joints from the same infant was statistically significant[(0.274±0.064)cm vs (0.265±0.064)cm, P<0.05]. Conclusions:The 95% medical reference value of hip diagnosed with Graf type Ⅰ is 0.15-0.38 cm.
Background: Although plain radiology is the primary method for assessing joint space width (JSW), it has poor sensitivity to change over time in regards to determining longitudinal progression. We, therefore, developed a new ultrasound (US) measurement method of knee JSW and aimed to provide a monitoring method for the change of JSW in the future. Methods: A multicenter study was promoted by the Professional Committee of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound, the Ultrasound Society, and the Chinese Medical Doctor Association. US study of knee specimens determined the landmarks for ultrasonic measurement of knee JSW. The US of 1,272 participants from 27 centers was performed to discuss the feasibility and possible influencing factors of knee JSW. The landmarks for US measurement of knee JS, the inflection point of medial femoral epicondyle and the proximal end of the tibia, were determined. Results: The mean knee JSW1 (medial knee JSW) was 8.57 +/- 1.95 mm in females and 9.52 +/- 2.31 mm in males. The mean knee JSW2 (the near medial knee JSW) was 9.07 +/- 2.24 mm in females and 10.17 +/- 2.35 mm in males. The JSW values of males were significantly higher than those of females, with a statistical difference. JSW values were negatively correlated with age and body mass index (BMI) to different degrees and positively correlated with height. Conclusions: The novel US measurement method can be used to measure knee JSW.

Objective To discuss the value of femoral head coverage (FHC) in the follow-up of infants with developmental dysplasia of the hip(DDH). Methods Two hundred and seventeen DDH infants(434 hips) diagnosed by clinical examination and ultrasonography were chosed as treatment group, and then received the brace treatment and followed up with ultrasonography. Four hundred and sixteen infants(832 hips) with normal hips diagnosed by clinical examination and ultrasonography were chosed as control group. The ultrasonographic examination included Graf method and FHC measurement. The infants in the treatment group were followed up with ultrasonography examination up to the age of 6 months. Results The FHC in the control group was (59.69±4.36)%. In the treatment group, 302 hips were diagnosed to be DDH.Among them, 36 hips were Graf type Ⅱa, 132 hips were Graf type Ⅱb, 69 hips were Graf type Ⅱc, 8 hips were Graf type D, 41 hips were Graf type Ⅲ, and 16 hips were Graf type Ⅳ. The FHC of these hips were (51.33±5.18)%, (53.07±3.94)%, (44.52±5.32)%, (38.70±5.85)%, (27.23±6.82)% and 0, respectively. After treatment, 222 hips became Graf type Ⅰ, 49 hips were improved, and their FHC increased. Twenty-eight hips were not significantly improved after treatment, but the FHC of most hips (including 14 hips of type Ⅱb, 3 hips of Ⅱc and 4 hips of type Ⅲ) increased. Three hips of Graf type Ⅲ aggravated to Graf type Ⅳ, and the FHC decreased to 0. Conclusions The FHC has important value in the follow-up of infants with DDH.

Objective To summarize the clinical and electroencephalogram features of neuronal ceroid lipofus-cinosis (NCL). Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical phenotypes and electroencephalogram features of pa-tients diagnosed with NCL in Department of Pediatrics,Peking University First Hospital from February 2000 to August 2015 were conducted. Results Among the 30 patients,18 were male and 12 were female. The age of onset was between 9 months to 7 years old. The first symptoms included seizure in 22 patients,psychomotor developmental delay or regre-ssion in 7 cases,and visual loss in 1 case. Clinical manifestations included psychomotor regression in 29 cases,epilepsy in 28 cases,visual impairment in 19 cases,ataxia in 20 patients,and positive pyramidal tract sign in 13 cases. Twenty-one patients accepted fundus oculi examination. Seven patients were found with macular degeneration,8 cases with optic nerve atrophy,2 cases with retinal pigment degeneration,and 8 patients were normal. Brain atrophy were found in all 30 cases,including diffuse brain atrophy in 14 cases,only cerebellar atrophy in 6 cases,and cerebral atrophy with periven-tricular T2W high signal in 10 cases. Video electroencephalogram(EEG)examination was performed in 27 patients and their backgrounds were diffuse slow waves. Seven patients didn't have physiological vertex sharp waves or sleep spin-dles. Generalized epileptiform discharges were captured in 6 cases,focal epileptiform discharges in 15 cases. Both of generalized and focal epileptiform discharges were captured in 6 cases. Generalized slow wave burst in 4 cases,and in-termittent photic stimulation evoked epileptiform discharges in 3 cases. Ten patients were observed with clinical sei-zures,including 4 cases of myoclonic episodes,3 cases of atypical absences,3 cases of focal seizures,1 case of atonic and one of tonic spasms. Peripheral blood enzyme examination was taken in 13 patients,among whom 8 patients were identified with tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP1)deficiency and 1 patient with palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1) deficiency. Twenty-eight patients accepted skin and/or muscle electron microscope examination. Osmiophilic granular was found in 2 cases,curvilinear bodies in 15 cases,fingerprint profiles in 2 cases,curvilinear and linear bodies in 1 case,fingerprint profiles and osmiophilic granular in 1 case. NCL-related gene detection was conducted in 3 patients, with 1 patient identified with CLN6 compound heterozygous mutations and 2 patients with TPP1 homozygous mutations. Thirty patients were classified into 3 groups based on the onset age,enzymatic examination results and pathological examination of skin and muscle,including 5 cases of infantile NCL,20 cases of late-infantile NCL,and 5 cases of juvenile NCL. Conclusions The clinical features of NCL included multiple types of epileptic seizures (among which myoclonus was the most common type),psychomotor developmental delay or regression,vision loss,ataxia,and positive pyramidal tract sign. Its MRI was characterized with brain atrophy. EEG showed diffuse slow wave activity,with focal and/or generalized epileptiform discharges. Specific enzyme examination,and skin or muscle pathology or gene test could help to make diagnosis.
Objective:To investigate the change of fatty liver stiffness by real time shear wave elastography (SWE),and to obtain the diagnostic threshold of fatty liver by comparing with conventional two-dimensional ultrasound and MR mDixon sequence which were used to detect the liver fat content.To analyze the correlation between fatty liver stiffness and fat content.And to assess the value of ultrasound SWE technique in diagnosis of fatty liver.Methods:28 healthy volunteers were examined by conventional two dimensional ultrasound,SWE and MR mDixon sequence.The consistency between the observers of SWE technique was examined by the Bland-Altman plot.The repeatability within the observers of the SWE technique was examined by calculating Pearson correlation coefficient r1、r2.The consistency of the ultrasound SWE techniques,MR mDixon sequence and traditional ultrasound in the detection and grade of fatty liver were analyzed to obtain the diagnostic threshold (kPaMean) combined with the scatter plot.To analyze the correlation of two imaging methods by calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient.The correlation of two imaging methods were analyzed by calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient.Results:Bland-Altman plot showed that 24 cases were within the 95 % agreement limit in 26 healthy volunteers.Intra-group correlation coefficients were r1=0.917,r2 0.921 (P<0.05).Kappa values of kPaMean =4,5,6 were calculated respectively.When Young's modulus diagnostic threshold (kPaMean) was seted at 5kPa,Kappa value=0.819 >0.75 (P<0.05).Pearson correlation coefficient was r hardness-0.877>0.85,r velocity=0.867>0.85,with a significantly statistical difference (all P<0.05).Conclusion:SWE imaging technique can be applied to the measurement of fatty liver with good stability,it can be used not only in clinical detection of fatty liver,but also can provide information about liver stiffness in patients with fatty liver,and it has a high correlation with liver fat content detected by MR mDixon sequence.
