ABSTRACT
[Objective]To study the professor LIU Zhe's clinical experience of the treatment of fatty liver with acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine.[Method]From the aspects of fatty liver's etiology and pathogenesis acupuncture points and clinical medication to state professor LIU's personal understanding and clinical experience about treating fatty liver, then summarize the principle of selected acupuncture points and the drugs regularity of professor LIU's treating different types of syndrome of fatty liver. [Result]Professor LIU has rich clinical experience, he thinks fatty livers' secondary symptoms are the excessive damp-heat and the interaction of phlegm and static blood, the primary symptoms are spleen deficiency, liver's qi stagnation and the stagment of water results from the kindney sufficiency, he distinguishes different types of syndrome from sign, tongue pulse and so on, focusing on simultaneous treatment of primary and secondary symptoms.Remarkable effects are acquired by combination acupuncture with Chinese medicine.[Conclusion]Professor LIU applies acupuncture and Chinese medicine to treat fatty liver has remarkable effects, which is worth of a deep study and spreading.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the curved planar reformation (CPR) imagings of bony canals in craniofacial region with multislice spiral CT.Methods CPR of the bony canals in craniofacial regions were performed in 267 cases by using Philips Mx8000 multislice spiral CT,including facial nerve canal (FNC) in 217 cases,optic nerve canal (ONC) in 28 cases,mandibular canal in 9 cases,carotid canal in 7 cases, jugular foramen in 4 cases and hypoglossal canal in 2 . Scanning parameters were as followed : 120 kV , 200~250 mAs , collimation 0.5mm, pitch 0.625 or 0.875,scan time 0.75s/ring, matrix 512?512.Collimation and reformation interval were 0.5~1.0 mm and 0.2~0.5 mm separately, except for FNC,in which were 0.5 mm and 0.2 mm separately.Reformation matrix was all 1024?1024.Results Of all cases , the images of CPR in 11 were unsatisfied because of the head shaking during the scanning, in other 256 cases , images could show the whole length of canals clearly. In FNC,178 cases were normal , 18 cases had congenital abnormal in the external , middle or inner ear accompanied with changes of length , course and position. 8 cases of otomastoiditis accompanied with cholesteatoma involving facial canal. In 21 cases of temporal bone trauma accompanied with traumatic facial palsy, fracture lines or bony fragments of the FNC were found in 9 cases. 2 cases of facial nerve tumor and 2 cases of jugular foramen schwannoma accompanied with facial canal destruction.24 cases of ONCs were normal. Fracture lines or bony fragments of ONCs were found in 3 cases. Narrowing of ONC was found in 1 cases of fibrous dysplasia.Normal carotid canal was seen in 2 cases, there were 2 cases of carotid canal fracture.1 cases of bony destruction of carotid canal caused by cholesteatoma of petrous apex. Jugular foramen was normal in 2 cases. Destruction and enlargement of jugular foramen were found in 2 cases of schwannoma. In 1 cases, hypoglossal nerve canal was normal. Destruction and enlargement of hypoglossal nerve canal were found in the other cases of schwannoma. Mandibular canal were normal in 4 cases and was involved in 2 cases by mandibular osteomyelitis and mandibular fracture,respectively, and 1 case by mandibular tumor. Conclusion The bony canals in craniofacial regions can be shown clearly by CPR with multislice spiral CT . It can provide more valuable informations than that of the axial scan and multiplanar reformation in the diagnosis of diseases of craniofacial region and was the important supplement of routine CT scan.
