Red/Near‐Infrared Emissive Metalloporphyrin‐Based Nanodots for Magnetic Resonance Imaging‐Guided Photodynamic Therapy In Vivo

Near‐infrared emissive (NIR) porphyrin‐implanted carbon nanodots (PCNDs or MPCNDs) are prepared by selectively carbonization of free base or metal complexes [M = Zn(II) or Mn(III)] of tetra‐(meso‐aminophenyl)porphyrin in the presence of citric acid. The as‐prepared nanodots exhibit spontaneously NIR emission, small size, good aqueous dispersibility, and favorable biocompatibility characteristic of both porphyrins and pristine carbon nanodots. The subcellular localization experiment of nanodots indicates a lysosome‐targeting feature. And the in vitro photodynamic therapy (PDT) results on HeLa cells indicate the nanodots alone have no adverse effect on tumor cells, but display remarkable photodynamic efficacy upon irradiation. Moreover, MnPCNDs containing paramagnetic Mn(III) ions, which possesses good biocompatibility, NIR luminescence, and magnetic resonance imaging and efficient singlet oxygen production, are further studied in magnetic resonance imaging‐guided photodynamic therapy in vivo.     

医用重离子回旋加速器引出系统设计

紧凑型回旋加速器作为重离子医学专用装置同步加速器的注入器,其引出系统设计所用的磁场为TOSCA模型计算磁场。通过单粒子轨道计算确定引出系统的元件类型及基本参数;通过多粒子跟踪确定最终的元件参数和束流参数。为了提高引出效率,改善引出束流品质,在引出位置磁场梯度较大的位置,安放了一块C型磁铁,以改善此处的磁场梯度。同时,为了消除此C型磁铁对主磁场的影响,在此区域安放了一对线圈。计算结果表明引出系统的设计能够保证引出束流的强度和品质符合同步加速器的要求。     

硼中子俘获治疗的蒙特卡罗方法模拟

Global Existence for a Parabolic-hyperbolic Free Boundary Problem Modelling Tumor Growth

In this paper we study a free boundary problem modelling tumor growth, proposed by A. Friedman in 2004. This free boundary problem involves a nonlinear second-order parabolic equation describing the diffusion of nutrient in the tumor, and three nonlinear first-order hyperbolic equations describing the evolution of proliferative cells, quiescent cells and dead cells, respectively. By applying Lp theory of parabolic equations, the characteristic theory of hyperbolic equations, and the Banach fixed point theorem, we prove that this problem has a unique global classical solution.     

Mechanical and dynamic aspects of voice production as related to voice therapy and phonosurgery

Laryngeal framework surgery can change the position and tensionof the vocal folds safely without direct surgical intervention in the vocal fold proper. Some 23 years of experience with phonosurgery have proved its usefulness in treating dysphonia related to unilateral vocal fold paralysis, vocal fold atrophy, and pitch-related dysphonias. Meanwhile, much information about the mechanism of voice production has been obtained through intraoperative findings of voice and fiberscopic examination of the larynx . Based on such knowledge together with information obtained through model experiments, the human vocal organ was reconsidered mainly from the mechanical view point, and the roles of voice therapy and singing pedagogy were discussed in relation to phonosurgery. The vocal organ may not be an ideal musical organ and is rather vulnerable, but its potential is enormous.

基于Faster-RCNN和Level-Set的桥小脑角区肿瘤自动精准分割

桥小脑角区（CPA）肿瘤的精准分割在手术治疗、放疗中有重要影响,本文结合更快速区域卷积神经网络（Faster-RCNN）和水平集（Level-Set）方法对CPA肿瘤的自动分割进行了研究.首先,采集317名CPA肿瘤患者的T₁WI-SE序列磁共振图像,使用基于Faster-RCNN主干网络VGG16提取特征,结合区域建议网络（RPN）进行学习训练,建立带有CPA肿瘤位置信息的定位模型,再应用Level-Set对肿瘤进行精准分割.本文对比了不同CPA肿瘤区域勾画范围对分割结果产生的影响,并以精确率、召回率、均值平均精度值（mAP）和戴斯系数（Dice系数）等指标评估了模型定位和分割的性能.实验结果表明,结合Faster-RCNN和Level-Set建立的模型能更有效对CPA肿瘤进行精准分割,减轻临床医生的负担,并提升治疗效果.     

噻胺酮麻醉剂对鼠S180肿瘤31P MRS的影响

三个不同领域实际问题相结合的教学方法探讨

通过建立肿瘤增长动力学模型,研究肿瘤增长动态规律时发现:肿瘤增长的全过程与龚珀兹增长曲线描述的经济增长过程完全相符;进一步给出了龚珀兹增长曲线与描述种群的增长与调节的逻辑斯蒂增长曲线完全相似.将上述三个属性完全不同的实际应用问题打包传授给学生的授课方法是有别于孤立地介绍三个具体问题的,学生的学习效果也会不同.
