Objective To review the value of imaging assessment of stem cell transplantation in treatment for liver cirrhosis.Methods The related literatures in recent years were collected,and the applications of different radiological techniques and strategies of stem cell transplantation in treatment for liver cirrhosis were summarized.Results Stem cell transplantation in treatment for liver cirrhosis was feasible and effective. Radiological assessment could supply the prompt and accurate information for clinic to choose the proper therapeutic method.The curative effect could also be accurately assessed by radiological techniques.Conclusion Radiological examination is important for the assessment of stem cell transplantation in treatment for liver cirrhosis.
Objective To review the value of imaging assessment for perioperative period of liver transplantation. Methods The related literatures in recent years were reviewed, and the applications of various kinds of radiological techniques in perioperative period of liver transplantation and radiological strategies of major complications after liver transplantation were summarized. Results Transplantation has become an effective option for treatment of patients with irreversible severe liver dysfunction. Radiological assessment supplies prompt and accurate information for clinic to increase the success rate and reduce the complications. So it plays an irreplaceable role. Conclusions Radiology assessment is important for screening donors and recipients before liver transplantation, following up and monitoring the complications. The doctor of imaging department could grasp the different imaging appearance in perioperative period of liver transplantation.
Lung ground glass opacity (GGO), which is associated with the pathology of the lung adenocarcinoma, is drawing more and more attention with the increased detection rate. However, it is still in the research stage for the imaging interpretation of GGO lesions. In this paper, we reviewed and analyzed the new classification of lung adenocarcinoma corresponding to the interpretation of GGO imaging feature, which emphasizes on how to determine the GGO lesions comprehensively and quantitative determination of the invasive extent of GGO.
Coronavirus disease 2019 that started in Wuhan, Hubei Province in December 2019, has spread rapidly across China. Radiography provides an important basis for clinical diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 and plays a crucial role in fighting against the epidemic. In the face of public health emergencies, how to quickly set up a team for accurate prevention and control in the first time and how to carry out radiological examination and diagnosis ina scientific, orderly, safe and efficient manner are the key measures to support the hospital in effectively responding to the epidemic. This paper summarized the innovative management experience of the radiology department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University in the prevention and control of nosocomial infection and discipline construction in the fight against the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of the application of team-based learning (TBL) pedagogy and traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) pedagogy in radiology education.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, WanFang Data, CNKI and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the application of TBL and LBL pedagogy in radiology education from inception to March 31st, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies; meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata/SE 16.0 software.ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 721 participants were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that TBL significantly improved students’ theoretical assessment scores (SMD=1.70, 95%CI 1.05 to 2.36, P<0.001), practical assessment scores (SMD=2.00, 95%CI 1.02 to 2.98, P<0.001), preference to the curriculum design (RR=1.53, 95%CI 1.19 to 1.97, P=0.001), agreed to more effective promotion in aspects of teamwork ability (RR=2.46, 95%CI 1.69 to 3.59, P<0.001), self-directed learning ability (RR=2.41, 95%CI 1.33 to 4.39, P=0.004), and clinical practice ability (RR=2.09, 95%CI 1.46 to 3.00, P<0.001) compared with LBL pedagogical method. However, no significant difference was found in the subjective evaluation of theoretical knowledge between two pedagogies.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that TBL pedagogy based on active learning and team cooperation has obvious advantages over traditional LBL mode in radiology education. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify above conclusions.
