ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of DR corneal suture ring localization and CT 3D reconstruction localization of orbital foreign bodies. MethodsRetrospective analysis was performed on patients （51 cases） suspected of ocular foreign bodies admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 At the same time， DR corneal suture ring localization and CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization of orbital foreign bodies were performed， and the detection rate of foreign bodies by the two methods was calculated to analyze the location of ocular foreign bodies. ResultsThere were 38 cases of intraorbital foreign body identified by DR corneal suture ring localization method， and 46 cases of intraorbital foreign body identified by CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization method. The accuracy of CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization method was 90.20%， which was higher than that of DR corneal suture ring localization method 74.51% （P<0.05）. Intraocular foreign bodies in 23 cases could be distinguished by DR corneal suture ring localization， and 25 cases by CT 3D reconstruction localization. The maximum diameter of intraocular foreign bodies that could be distinguished by CT 3D reconstruction localization was （2.65±0.14） mm. The diameter of intraspherical foreign body was （2.94±0.36） mm （P<0.05） lower than that which could be distinguished by DR corneal suture ring localization method. The results of DR corneal suture ring localization of orbital foreign body showed no difference compared with the results of CT 3D reconstruction localization （P>0.05）. Forty cases of high density images inside and outside the eye could be clearly distinguished by CT 3D reconstruction. By using DR corneal suture ring localization method， 23 cases were confirmed to be intraocular high-density shadows， and 15 cases could not be confirmed to be intraocular high-density shadows （P < 0.05）. ConclusionsFor the location of intraorbital foreign bodies， CT three-dimensional reconstruction can be used as a conventional method for locating ocular foreign bodies with high resolution and accuracy， and can detect fine metal particles inside the eyeball. Meanwhile， for a few small foreign bodies in the iris root， ciliary body and lateral suspension ligament， it is necessary to locate orbital foreign bodies with DR corneal suture ring.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To provide basic data for clinical application and individualized design of lumbar disc prostheses by measuring the anatomical parameters of lumbar intervertebral discs and endplates in healthy adults with CT three-dimensional reconstruction technology.@*METHODS@#A retrospective analysis was performed on 200 males and 200 females with normal lumbar spine who were admitted to the imaging center or outpatient department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from September 2019 to December 2020. The age ranged from 20 to 60 years old, with an average of (40.61±11.22) years old. The measurement segment was L1-S1 intervertebral disc, and the measurement indicators included the axial anteroposterior diameter and transverse diameter of the intervertebral disc, sagittal anterior, middle and posterior height, coronal left and right height, intervertebral space angle, and transverse and anteroposterior diameters of the upper and lower endplates of each vertebral body.@*RESULTS@#①In terms of gender, the anatomical parameters of L1-S1 disc axial diameter, transverse diameter, sagittal anterior, middle and posterior height, left and right coronal height and intervertebral space angle were all higher in males than in females(P<0.05), and the anatomical parameters of upper and lower endplates of L1-S1 vertebral body were higher in males than in females(P<0.001). ②In comparison of sagittal height of anterior, middle and posterior intervertebral discs, the sagittal height of L1-L5 intervertebral discs was middle-high > anterior-high > posterior-high(P<0.001), while that of L5S1 intervertebral disc was anterior-high > middle-high > posterior-high (P<0.001). ③In the comparison of left and right coronal height, there was no statistical significance in the left and right coronal height of L1-S1 disc between male and female(P>0.05). ④The L1-S1 intervertebral spaces angle between male and female increased with the increase of vertebral body segments. ⑤The anterior and posterior diameters and transverse diameters of upper and lower of L1-S1 vertebral bodies endplates were height in males than in females(P<0.001).@*CONCLUSION@#The results suggest that gender differences should be considered in the design of adult lumbar disc prostheses. The anatomical parameters of the lumbar intervertebral disc varied with the increase of the vertebral body sequence, suggesting that different anatomical parameters of the intervertebral disc should be considered in the design of the artificial intervertebral disc, and the changes in the height of the sagittal position suggest that the design of the intervertebral disc should be wedge-shaped.

Objective To research the anatomical classification of suprascapular notch based on CT 3D reconstruction and its clinical significance. Methods A total of 300 suprascapular (left 142, right 158) data were collected from Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University were measured based on CT 3D reconstruction. The suprascapular images were reconstructed by CT 3D technique, and the scapular morphological classification was made and geometric data were measured. Results Five types of suprascapular notch were found. Type I (V, a total of 138 cases, 46%) was the most common, followed by type II (U, a total of 125 cases, 41. 7%), type III (V, a total of 20 cases, 6. 7%), type IV (O, atotol of 10 cases, 3. 3%) and type V (Ω, a total of 7 cases, 2. 3%), in addition, found W-shaped, double O-shaped each 1, because of the number was rare, it was not included in the classification. The average depth and width of the left suprascapular notch were (5. 58±1.42) mm and (10. 22±3. 24) mm, and the right scapula were (6. 02± 1. 87) mm and (10. 81±3. 35) mm, respectively (P < 0. 05). The width of the incision of type I and type II was wider than that of the other three types, which were (12. 46±3. 20) mm and (9. 95± 2. 68)mm, and P<0. 05. In addition, the length of the vertical point from the lowest point of the suprascapular notch to the base of the scapula was different. Type I (the shortest) was about (12. 52±2. 56) mm, and type III (the longest) was about (14. 48±4. 29) mm. There was a statistical difference between type I and type III (P<0. 05). Conclusion Based on the result of CT three-dimensional reconstruction, the suprascapular notch is divided into five types, which are V-shaped, U-shaped, V-shaped, O-shaped, and ft-shaped. The probability of suprascapular nerve compression in V-shaped and O-shaped is more, on the contrary, the shape of the √-shaped and U-shaped compression is small.
ABSTRACT
One of the uncommon congenital variations is intrathoracic rib which a normal, a bifid, or an accessory rib lies within the thoracic cavity that is founded accidentally. Clinically, in most cases they are without symptoms; however, it may cause intrathoracic problems therefore it is important for radiologists and physicians to identify to prevent of excessive intervention and treatment during imaging diagnostic techniques of thoracic problems. In this report, we provide the case of a rare presentation of an intrathoracic rib in a 3-year-old boy arising from the inferior portion of a second rib based on findings from computed tomography. To our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of this type of intrathoracic rib that demonstrated with computed tomography.

ABSTRACT
Objective To obtain the CT image 3 D reconstruction of head and neck region of the first Chinese visible human. Methods The CT data of head and neck region of the first Chinese visible human were processed with Siemens 3 D Virtuoso VA(R2.6) software in SGI Graphics Computer Workstation. The 3 D reconstruction of head and neck surface and skeletal structure were carried out and studied. Results The face and neck were well reconstructed. The nose, lips, ears and chin could be clearly shown. The skeletal structures in the head and neck region were fairly reconstructed and displayed very well and even the fine structures in skull base such as foraman ovale and foramen spinosum could be seen. Many anatomic structures such as pituitary gland, brain stem, cervical marrow, sphenoid sinus, nasopharynx could be displayed in detail on the 3 D reconstruction section. Conclusion This study has realized the CT image 3 D reconstruction and visualization of head and neck region of the first Chinese visible human and provided morphologic data for further studies of 3 D structures, comparative studies of anatomy and imaging of the head and neck.
