ABSTRACT
@#AIM:To compare the accuracy of Toric intraocular lens(IOL)alignment using the Verion image guided system and conventional manual marker. <p>METHODS:Prospective randomized controlled study. A total of 56 eyes of 47 age-related cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with Toric IOL implantation in our hospital from June 2016 to December 2019 were randomly divided into two groups:In the image-guided group, Verion navigation system collected anterior segmental images before surgery, and Toric target was set to 27 eyes in axial direction. In the marker group, Toric target was marked at 0° and 180° levels before surgery, and Toric target was marked in 29 eyes in axial direction according to the labeling ring. At 1h, 1wk, 1 and 3mo postoperatively, the anterior segment of patients with dilated pupil was photographed. Photoshop software was used to analyze the deviation between the actual axial direction and the target axial direction of the two groups, and the patients' naked eye visual acuity(UCDVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCDVA)and residual astigmatism were recorded. <p>RESULTS: At 1h and 3mo postoperatively, the deviation between the actual axis and the target axis of IOL in the navigation group was less than that in the marker group(1.5°±1.8° <i>vs</i> 3.1°±2.1°; 1.9°±1.6° <i>vs</i> 3.3°±2.4°, all <i>P</i><0.05). There was no difference in UCDVA(LogMAR)between the navigation group and the marker group(0.04±0.08 <i>vs</i> 0.06±0.07, <i>P</i>=0.338)and there was no difference in residual divergence(-0.39±0.32 <i>vs</i> -0.45±0.31D, <i>P</i>=0.491)between two groups at 3mo after operation.<p>CONCLUSION:Verion digital marking and manual marking showed high accuracy in marking Toric IOL axial direction. Although the navigation group showed no advantage in UCDVA and residual astigmatism, the IOL misalignment in navigation group was significantly smaller than the marker group, and Toric IOL axial direction was implanted more accurately under Verion digital marking.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the clinical value of image navigation technique in nasal endoscopic repair of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea. Methods Retrospectively analyse the clinical data of 10 cases with cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea who underwent nasal endoscopic repair who were admitted to hospital from March 2014 to June 2017 and discussing the diagnosis of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea, preoperative and intraoperative leakage location,repair effect,complications and other indicators. Results All cases were cured by one treatment under imaging-guided transnasal endoscopic repair without any complication and recurrence during the 0. 5 to 40 months of follow-up visits. Conclusion Image-guided system application is essential in the endoscopic repairment of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea by exactly locating the rhinorrhea.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the accuracy and validity of Toric intraocular lens (IOL) alignment by VERION image guided system.Methods In this retrospective study,75 eyes of 75 patients who underwent phacomulsification combined with Toric IOL implantation were enrolled from June 2016 to May 2017.Before operation,anterior segment images of all patients were collected using VERION image guided system,and target axis of IOL implantation was set.Horizontal axis was marked using 1 mL syringe needle under the slit lamp.During the procedures,the IOL was implanted referring to the target axis under VERION system or the slit lamp randomly,and there were 42 eyes with IOL implantation guided by VERION system (VERION group),and 33 eyes guided by slit lamp (slit lamp group).The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of each patient was recorded at day 1,1 week,1 month,and 3 months after operation.Anterior segment images were taken after mydriasis,and all the images were analyzed by Photoshop software.Finally,the BCVA at various time points after operation and the deviation value of actual axis and target axis was compared in both groups.Results The proportion of eyes with BCVA ≥ 0.8 at day 1,1 week,1 month,and 3 months after operation was 61.9％,78.6％,71.4％ and 76.2％ in VERION group,respectively,and 69.7％,78.8％,81.8％ and 75.8％ in slit lamp group,respectively,and there was no statistical significance between VERION group and slit lamp group (all P ＞ 0.05).The difference value of target axis marked by VERION system and by slit lamp was (3.04 ± 1.99) °.No significant differences were seen in the IOL actual axis and target axis between the two groups at various time points (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion It is accurate and stable of VERION image guided system for toric IOL axis marking.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the setup error and area registration error during lung cancer radiotherapy by using the on board imager (OBI) of the linear accelerator. Methods Totally 50 lung cancer patients underwent image-guided radiation therapy. Then OBI system was used for the scan validation by electronic portal imaging device (EPID) and cone beam CT (CBCT), and comparative analysis was executed on the setup errors of EPID and CBCT. Results The translation errors of EPID were (-1.62 ±1.58), (2.12 ±1.49) and (4.52 ±2.42)mm respectively at Lat, Vrt and Lng directions, while those of CBCT were (-1.27±1.25), (1.43±1.57) and (3.12±2.62) mm respectively. The registration errors at Lat, Vrt and Lng directions and rotation angle of lung tissue were (-1.27±1.25), (1.43±1.57), (3.12±2.62)mm and (0.5±1.6)° respectively, and those of target area were (-1.56±1.78), (1.68±2.39), (3.42±2.73)mm and (0.8±1.9)° respectively. CBCT and EPID had statistical differences (P<0.05) in setup error validation as well as setup errors at Vrt and Lng directions. There were no significant differences (P>0.05) when CBCT self-registration was involved in selecting different areas. Conclusion CBCT and EPID can both used for the setup validation of lung cancer, while the former behaved better than the latter.
ABSTRACT
Acoustic tumor which originates from the vestibular nerve is the most common neoplasm to be found at the cerebellopontine angle. The surgical approaches currently used for the acoustic tumor are the middle cranial fossa, the translabyrinthine, the suboccipital, and the combined approaches depending on the size, location, and growth rate of the tumor and the hearing level, age, and general health condition of the patient. The complex and variable anatomy and the proximity of important structures encountered during acoustic tumor surgery especially when using the middle cranial fossa approach, may make it a tough job even for the experienced surgeon. Recently, developed image-guided system may be an important step in reducing the incidence of the complication. In the present research, authors used image-guided system during acoustic tumor surgery via middle cranial fossa approach, and with good result.

The success of total hip replacement relies on detailed preoperative pla nning and reliable localization during operation.Currently,great advances have been made in the research and application of localization s ystem.The traditional preoperative planning is based on plain radiographs of the p elvis and femur as well as the profile outline of each prosthetic component.Now image-gu ided system(IGS)is used to perform virtual implantation.Surgeons used to localize during total hip replacement only wi th eyes or unreliable localization d evices,but now they begin to use imag e-guided system for surgical navigation during operation.[
