Objective To determine the affected factors of intraorbital hemodynamic results in diabetic retinopathy (DR) and the risk factors related to the occurrence of DR. Methods Posterior ciliary artery (PCA), central retinal artery (CRA), central retinal vein (CRV), and vortex vein (VV) of 68 patients with DR were measured by color Doppler flow image (CDFI). Thirty-one hemodynamic parameters, including systolic velocity, diastolic velocity, mean velocity, resistive index, pulsatility index and accelerative velocity of ophthalmic artery (OA), and other variates (blood pressure, blood sugar, gender, age, duration of the disease, and so on) were collected and clustered in a principal components analys is following a forward, stepwise logistic regression on these components. Results Nine principal components were extracted from 37 original variates, reflecting the velocity of OA, velocity of PCA, resistance of OA, velocity of CRA,resistance of CRA, resistance of PCA, time-related factor, venous drainage factor and gender factor, respectively. In the result of logistic regression, resistance of OA, velocity of CRA, resistance of PCA, time-related factor, and venous drainage factor were the risk factors related to DR. Conclusion The first risk factor affecting DR is time, and intraorbital hemodynamic abnormity influencing the development of diabetic retinopathy may be the increase of resistance of OA, decrease of velocity of CRA, decrease of resistance of PCA, and increase of venous drainage.

OBJECTIVE :To investigate ocular vessel flow velocity in normal eyes by color Doppler imaging(CDI). METHODS: Ninety people (180 normal eyes)had flow velocity measured by CDI in three vessels,ophthalmic artery (OA),central retinal artery(CRA) and posterior ciliary artery (PCA),and the relations between velocity and affecting factors were analysed. RESULT: The diastolic and systolic velocity of OA,CRA and PCA were (31.7plusmn;10.9)cm/s, (7.2plusmn;2.6)cm/,s, (10.2plusmn;3.4)cm/s, (2.8plusmn;1.2)cm/s and (11.3plusmn;3.6)cm/s, (3.2plusmn;1.4)cm/s respectively. The velocity of OA had possitive correl-ativity with RBC,HCT and negative correlativity with age,while it revealed no relationship with sex, laterality of right or left eye,and normal IOP. CDI of ocular vessels in normal eyes is a triangle with three peaks and double sunkens in its frenquency spectum, revealed highly resistant,and both the pulsatility and resistive indexes were relatively high. The width of each frequency band basically was the same,and there was no obvious frequency window. CONCLUSION: The ocular application of CDI might lay the foundation of a comparatively comprehensive knowledge of the ocular hemodynamics. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13: 99-101）
Objective To probe the significance of application of ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) in the diagnosis and management of the iris and ciliary tumors. Methods UBM (Mode 840, Humphrey, 50 MHz 5 mm×5 mm) was done in 34 cases (35 eyes) of iris and ciliary body tumors, and some of the affected eyes underwent B-scan or Doppler ultrasound and CT scan. Histopathological examination of the resected tumor tissues was performed in 21 eyes of the operation. Results Among this series of 35 eyes with iris and ciliary body tumors detected by UBM, the characteristics of locality and solidity of the tumors, i,e., anterior chamber in plantation cyst, cyst behind the iris, and solid tumors of iris and ciliary body, of 21 eyes undergone surgical treatment revealed the same results both in UBM and histopathological examinations. Conclusion UBM can supply precise informations in diagnosis and treatment of tumors of iris and ciliary body. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2002, 18: 128-130)
Objective To search and review the best clinical evidence to direct the use of ultrasound. Methods After developing clinical questions, we searched the following databases for evidence: PROQUEST (1984 to 2004), SUMSEARCH (1980 to 2004) and The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2004). The key words were “repeated ultrasound exposure and children development (outcome)”. Results We found 3 systematic reviews, 3 randomized controlled trials, 1 cohort study and 1 case-control study. Most of the trials concluded that the effects of ultrasound to fetus were to be identified, some of the trials showed that ultrasound exposure could have an effect on fetus growth and language ability after delivery. Conclusions The pregnant women should avoid ultrasound as much as possible.
Objective To summarize ultrasonography, CT and (or) MRI imaging features of cystic liver lesions so as to improve its diagnostic accuracy. Methods The literatures relevant imaging studies of different types of cystic liver lesions at home and abroad were searched. Then with the etiology as clue, the imaging fetures of ultrasonography, CT and (or) MRI plain scan and enhancement scan were summarized. Results The cystic liver lesions had many types, their imaging findings were different and existed overlaps. The diagnosis and differential diagnosis of atypical cases were difficult. ① For the simple hepatic cyst, it was a round cystic mass with water-like echo, density and signal. The boundary was clear, and there was no separation in the cyst, without contrast enhancement. The sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing were higher by ultrasonography and MRI as compared with CT. ② For the bile duct hamartoma and Caroli diease, they were manifested as multiple cysts, widely distributed in the whole liver, without enhancement for the most lesions. The multiple cystic lesions without communicating with the bile duct was the key sign of differential diagnosis for these two dieases. ③ Enhancing mural nodules were more common in cystadenocarcinoma than cystadenoma. The accurate diagnosis of biliary cystadenoma depended on combination of ultrasonography, CT, and MRI findings. ④ For the cystic liver metastatic tumor, it was multiple cystic neoplasms in the liver parenchyma or around the liver. CT was the main method for the diagnosis, and which showed that the density was lower than that of the liver parenchyma, peripheral ring-enhanced lesion as enhanced scan. It was easy to distinguish with simple hepatic cyst by MRI. ⑤ For the cystic hepatocellular carcinoma, it presented as a multilocular cystic solid tumor. The presence of tumor thrombus in portal vein could help to the diagnosis. ⑥ For the undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma, CT plain scan showed the cystic low density mass with clear boundary, the edge with calcification, enhanced scan showed that the soft tissue composition presented continuous strengthening sign. There was no specific signal in MRI plain scan, and the periphery of the tumor was slowly strengthening. ⑦ For the liver abscess, it was easy to diagnose because it had different characteristic features in different pathological phase, but it was misdiagnosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma when its symptoms were atypical. ⑧ The ultrasonography and the CT were the optimal methods for the hepatic cystic echinococcosis and the hepatic alveolar echinococcosis respectively. The significances of imaging were to determine the activity of hydatid cyst and to identify anatomy structure among alveolar echinococcosis, bile duct and blood vessel, and judge invasion or not, MRCP was important for diagnosis. Conclusions Abdominal ultrasonography could be used as the first choice for diagnosis of cystic liver lesions, CT and MRI could be used as effective supplementary methods for it. A combination of various imaging techniques is key to diagnosis. Moreover, number and morphology of lesion, and solid component or not are important imaging features of diagnosis and differential diagnosis of cystic liver lesion.
