ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the consistency and diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for detecting microvascular invasion (MVI) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the validity of deep learning attention mechanisms and clinical features for MVI grade prediction.@*METHODS@#This retrospective study was conducted among 158 patients with HCC treated in Shunde Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University between January, 2017 and February, 2020. The imaging data and clinical data of the patients were collected to establish single sequence deep learning models and fusion models based on the EfficientNetB0 and attention modules. The imaging data included conventional MRI sequences (T1WI, T2WI, and DWI), enhanced MRI sequences (AP, PP, EP, and HBP) and synthesized MRI sequences (T1mapping-pre and T1mapping-20 min), and the high-risk areas of MVI were visualized using deep learning visualization techniques.@*RESULTS@#The fusion model based on T1mapping-20min sequence and clinical features outperformed other fusion models with an accuracy of 0.8376, a sensitivity of 0.8378, a specificity of 0.8702, and an AUC of 0.8501 for detecting MVI. The deep fusion models were also capable of displaying the high-risk areas of MVI.@*CONCLUSION@#The fusion models based on multiple MRI sequences can effectively detect MVI in patients with HCC, demonstrating the validity of deep learning algorithm that combines attention mechanism and clinical features for MVI grade prediction.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the accuracy and generalized robustness of three predictive models of knowledge-based treatment strategies for radiotherapy for optimized model selection.Methods:The clinical radiotherapy plans of 45 prostate cancer (PC) cases and 25 nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) cases were collected, and analyzed using three models (Z, L and S model), proposed by Zhu et al, Appenzoller et al and Shiraishi et al, respectively, to predict the dose-volume histogram (DVH) of bladder and rectum on PC cases and that of left and right parotid on NPC cases. The prediction error was measured by the difference of area under the predicted DVH and the clinical DVH curves (|V (pre_DVH)-V (clin_DVH)|), where a smaller prediction error implies a greater prediction accuracy. The accuracies of these three models were compared on the single organ at risk (OAR), and the generalized robustness of models was evaluated and compared by calculating the standard deviation of the prediction accuracy on different OAR. Results:For bladder and rectum, the prediction error of L model (0.114 and 0.163, respectively) was significantly higher than those values of Z and S models (≤0.071, P<0.05); for left parotid gland, the predicted error of S model (0.033) did not present significant difference from those values of Z and L models (≤0.025, P>0.05); for right parotid gland, S model (0.033) demonstrated significantly higher prediction error than those of Z and L models (≤0.028, P<0.05). Regarding different OAR, S model showed a lower standard deviation of prediction accuracy when comparing to Z and L models (0.016, 0.018 and 0.060, respectively). Conclusions:In the prediction of DVH in bladder and rectum of PC, Z and S models were more accurate than L model. In contrast, Z and L models demonstrated higher accuracy than S model in the prediction of left and right parotid glands of NPC. In respect to different OAR, the generalized robustness of S model was superior than the other two models.

ABSTRACT

A new head and neck location frame for positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) cross-modality medical image fusion in radiotherapy was developed. The solid mark bars of N form in the old designed CT location frame were replaced by closed hollow pipes which could be filled with different developer solutions before CT or PET scan, respectively. Nine points of external marker used for registration and fusion were obtained in CT images and PET images, respectively. The locations of the two sets of nine points showed the method of registration to be effective and accurate in achieving the PET and CT image fusion. This method, based on its characteristics of simple structure and easy-to-use, can be of wide application in clinical setting.

ABSTRACT

We have designed a sort of multi-functional bone forceps for use as orthopedic surgical instruments to grip, bend and cut the spicula. It is labor-saving and easily installed. Its left and right clamp bodies are connected by a rivet to hold the spicula, and the pressure-regulating shank is connected with the clamp seat body at the right top of the clamp body by a rivet. It is used to curve the spicula. At an appropriate location on the pressure-regulating shank is a pin-cutting chip. On the right body rotating disc-clamp, there is a rectangular open cutting groove to be in use for cutting the specula with the role of pin-cutting chip. Being characterized by the use of mechanical leverage, the manipulations of holding and bending are less arduous. After achieving the 90-degree bend, the operator can cut off the specula successfully. The operation is easy to perform and labor-saving; the forceps can further meet the actual clinical demand.

ABSTRACT

This is the design of a mechanical systems for use in the balanceable system of ambulance, which can keep the medical service bed at the ambulance level, whatever the terrain is. A level detector will detect the level state of the bed and turn it to a signal. The central processing unit will use this signal to analyse and control the movement of the motor. By this design (which uses the rolling rail as a drive transmission and makes three supports of the bed go up and down), the bed will keep level. With the use of this design, the balanceable system of ambulance can counteract 35 degrees. The error is controlled within +/- 1 degree. And the response time is within 0.3 s. The method of registration can be effective for keeping the bed at the ambulance level, and for reducing the chance of making the patient get hurt on the way to hospital.

ABSTRACT

In the end of last century, there was a leap in the technological quality of radiotherapy, which is incarnated in three new technologies: Stereotactic radiation surgery (SRS), three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). However, the achievement of these technologies has a close relationship with the precise orientation of tumour. Especially, in terms of body stereotactic precise radiation therapy, its body mechanical orientation system is the kernel to guarantee the accuracy of radiotherapy. This paper presents a novel mechanical orientation system for body precise radiotherapy. It is characterized by flexible adjustment, deft removal, easy disassembly and accurate orientation using apart structure to substitute old integer structure and adopting single segment Z shape orientation marker staff. The new mechanical orientation system guarantees the effect of tumour radiotherapy, which is worthy to be recommended for clinical use.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the application of the genetic algorithm with two populations in optimization of both IMRT beam weight and orientation.Methods The genetic algorithm with two populations was used to optimize IMRT beam weight and orientations with three dimensional pencil beam dose calculation model. The algorithm was implemented in Visual c#. Net. And the results were analyzed. Results The modest change of the beam orientation resulted in more conformal dose distribution in target volume, and large high dose area was included. Further more, genetic algorithm with two populations gave such a clinically acceptable computation time. Conclusion Little change had distinct influence on dose distribution when there were few beam orientations. The genetic algorithm with two populations was an effective and global optimization method because of its parallel, robust and global. It provided satisfying results when used to optimize IMRT beam weight and orientations

ABSTRACT

CT laser simulation positioning system is a necessary auxiliary device for radiotherapy. Its main purpose is to position patients by simulating different kinds of treatment machine. In order to demarcate the mark of the iso-center, it is common to use the laser positioning device to indicate the iso-center. The kernel technology of the laser positioning system is the controlling of the step progress motor by using the MCS, which is to control the movement of step progress motor using the wheel of the motor. This design uses MCS-51 to control step progress motor by the way of exporting the rectangle wave form through I/O port of 8255 chip. The system configuration is simple, the operation is convenient and the positioning is precise.
