ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:It remains hard to judge characterization of lesion tissues using two-dimensional sectional image at present. Medical three-dimensional reconstruction technique could obviously improve work efficiency and accuracy of medical working staff on disease diagnosis. OBJECTIVE:To develop a three-dimensional medical visualization system can rebuild three-dimensional model of corresponding parts by reading DICOM data, and observe the appearance of affected hip joint using reconstructed models. METHODS:A three-dimensional (3D) medical visualization system was developed using the MFC in a PC with Windows XP operating system, development environment VC++6.0, VTK 5.6 instal ation, and necessary settings were made. Precise procedures are as fol ows: ① create a drawing object; ② create a drawing window, and draw objects was added in draw window; ③ read the CT image sequences, and set the path of the read image sequence; ④ isosurface (generate triangular facets) were extracted using MC algorithm, depending on the gray, skin and bones. Data of the input image sequence were set;gray value of tissue contour was set; ⑤the establishment of a V-belt objects and data mapping object; ⑥ graphics rendering, to receive the properties of the geometric data, and a different colors and transparency of bones and skin were set; ⑦ the viewing position was set to observe the position of the object and focus; ⑧ to create a human-computer interaction function. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:VC++6.0 and VTK could meet the needs of medical 3D visualization systems development. Developed 3D visualization system software could perform 3D reconstruction through reading CT images of DICOM format files. Thus, the relevant parts of the reconstructed 3D model could be observed by rotating, zooming, and panning so as to visual y observe the bone structure of hip joint, fractured appearance and type. It provided a reference for relevant therapy and operation.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:It is difficult to adjust the anteversion angle of cementless hip joint. Some areas rely on the intraoperative three-dimensional navigation technique to ensure the accuracy of the anteversion angle, but its high cost limits the promotion prospects. OBJECTIVE:To design a kind of artificial femur head, which has special functions to freely adjust the anteversion angle of artificial femur head during operation and lock prosthesis handle to prevent femur prosthesis dislocation and looseness, and to intuitively display the special design concept of this kind of artificial femur head through the three-dimensional dynamic image aided by computer. METHODS:According to the design idea, AutoCAD software was used to get the design drawings for artificial femur head. The three-dimensional modeling was performed by 3DMax software in order to observe the form and degrees of verisimilitude of model. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The AutoCAD software was used to draw out the design drawings of artificial femur head according to the design requirements and design idea:the prosthesis handle had three lock hole channel and its basal part was for scale, and rotating the scale could change the anteversion angle of prosthesis neck;the shape of the prosthesis neck was dentate cylindrical. The 3DMax software was used to build the three-dimensional model of the artificial femur head, and the design, form and degrees of verisimilitude of the model comply with the design requirements. The whole structure of the three-dimensional model of artificial femur head is clear and the design is reasonable, which can provide a theoretical reference for further design of artificial femur head.
ABSTRACT
A DNA fragment encoding mouse B Lymphocyte Chemoattractant (BLC, MV10Kda) was obtained by PCR. The amplified fragment was inserted into prokaryotic expression vector PQE30. Recombinant protein was expressed in E. Coli XL-1 blue and purified by affinity chromatography on a nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid gel matrix. Then it was identified by sequence analysis and Western blot analysis. The fragment inserted into prokaryotic expression vector PQE30 was identified to be BLC gene fragment by sequence analysis. And a specfic band was shown by Western blot analysis. These findings provide the evidence that the recombinant protein obtained and purified in this study using gene engineering method is mouse B Lymphocyte Chemoattractant.
