Radiology Department

【Growth Process】

In 1964, Fuyang First People's Hospital introduced a fluoroscopy machine with only 30mA, which was the beginning of the radiology department. In 1974, the first radiology department was established on the hillside of the old hospital area, covering an area of about 180m2. The first radiography machine XG200 and a KE200 were officially introduced. This was also the first radiography machine in Fuyang, and the radiation diagnosis and treatment system originally formulated for this purpose is still in use today. In 1982, a new 540m2 computer room was built, and a 500mA film camera and darkroom fluoroscopy were introduced. In 1998, a Japanese Shimadzu 1000mA line machine was purchased. In 2003, the old hospital built a new radiology department, covering an area of about 1,700 m2. In the same year, a fully imported GE4 row CT was purchased. In 2006, CT-guided chest biopsy began. In 2007, a digital CR and mammography machine were purchased. In 2008, a 0.35t magnetic resonance was purchased. Start MRCP and other angiography. In 2011, the entire hospital’s PASC system digital workstations were implemented. In 2012, the Imaging Consultation Center was established. In 2014, a 16-slice CT machine was replaced, and CTU and partial vascular CT enhancement were carried out. In 2015, it moved to a new hospital, purchased and used five DRs (1 Philips, 4GE), a 64-slice CT, and a mobile DR, and began to perform CT coronary angiography. In 2019, the imaging consultation center was reorganized and upgraded with the Radiology Department of our hospital as the center. In the same year, a 16-slice CT was purchased. In March 2021, the long-awaited 1.5T magnetic resonance machine was purchased and installed, filling the vacancy of high-field magnetic resonance machines, relying on the magnetic resonance machine to carry out many new projects, and at the same time speeding up the appointment time for MR. At the same time, the mammography machine was updated, and digital mammography examinations were carried out. Due to the epidemic, a 16-row cabin CT was purchased. In 2021, it was awarded the key discipline of Fuyang District - Radiation Medicine. At the end of 2022, due to the epidemic, 60-row CT and X-ray machines for fever clinics were urgently purchased. The radiology department made a huge contribution during the epidemic, and the number of CT examinations reached a historical peak of 1,100 per day.

The first director, Lu Jinyu; the second director, Chen Rongda; the third director, Xia Jiren, deputy director Wang Naijun, later Lu Gang, and then Lu Jinshan; in 2006, Lu Jinshan was appointed director and He Jie was appointed deputy director. Director; In 2014, He Jie served as the director, and Luo Xingcai served as the deputy director; in 2018, He Jie served as the director, and Luo Xingcai and Chen Guoqiang served as deputy directors; in 2020, He Jie served as the director, and Luo Xingcai and Zhu Yufeng served as deputy directors.

【Current status of subject】

The Radiology Department became an independent laboratory in 1974. From one radiologist to the present day, it has 26 technicians, 23 diagnosticians and 4 nurses. Among them, there is 1 senior technician, 4 deputy senior technicians and 13 intermediate technicians in the diagnostic team; 1 deputy chief technician and 7 intermediate technicians in the technical team. The department currently has 4 16-row CT machines, 1 60-row CT machine, 1 64-row CT machine, 6 DR machines, and 1 1.5T magnetic resonance machine. The department performs about 300 DR examination sites, about 700 general CT examination sites, about 40 enhanced CT examination patients, and about 60 MRI examination patients every day. As an auxiliary department, the radiology department is an important means of diagnosing diseases and a strong clinical backing. The use of the hospital-wide PASC system in 2011 has brought the radiology department closer to other departments. Since the introduction of 16-slice CT in 2014, the Radiology Department has carried out various types of CT angiography, and the three-dimensional reconstruction of blood vessels helps doctors intuitively understand the location of lesions. Aneurysms, pulmonary artery obstruction, and vascular variations are all invisible under CT angiography and three-dimensional reconstruction. After the introduction of 64-slice CT, coronary angiography is also a problem. In recent years, artificial intelligence has also become one of the focuses of the radiology department. The diagnosis of pulmonary nodules and pneumonia, and the measurement of lung volume have all demonstrated its power. After the introduction of the new 1.5T magnetic resonance machine, a large number of new technologies have been developed For new projects, many examinations that previously had to go to Hangzhou can now be completed locally in Fuyang, which is convenient for patients and has made an important contribution to the development of the hospital's technical strength. We are also constantly learning and researching to improve our own capabilities. We have been working hard to improve business capabilities and speed up discipline construction. Currently, the Radiology Department has published more than 20 academic papers, including 4 SCI articles and 6 district-level research projects.

【Diagnosis and treatment scope】

X-ray photography of various parts of the body, bedside photography, esophagography, and upper gastrointestinal tract photography. CT plain scan of all parts of the body, enhanced CT scan, and enhanced CT examination of blood vessels such as the brain, neck blood vessels, pulmonary artery, aorta, limb arteries, and portal veins. Whole body magnetic resonance (MR) examination. Angiographic examination, genitourinary system angiography, digestive system angiography, gastric and duorectal angiography, oral enterography, barium colonography, intussusception air enema repair, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), "T" tube angiography, sinus tract and fistula angiography, and lower extremity venography. Diseases suitable for X-ray examination: X-rays can be applied to most parts of the body. Radiographs can observe lesions in the lungs, pleura, mediastinum, heart, and large blood vessels. Diagnosis of bone fractures and joint dislocations and review of bone and joint deformities and fractures. It can be used for the diagnosis of opaque foreign bodies in soft tissues of limbs, esophagus and gastrointestinal tract. Abdominal plain radiography can determine whether there is pneumoperitoneum after gastrointestinal perforation and whether there is intestinal obstruction. Used to understand the shape and location of larger stones in the urinary system and opaque contraceptive rings. Photographs can be used to examine thicker parts of the human body, such as the spine, skull, pelvis and other diseases. Diseases suitable for CT examination: Central nervous system: intracranial tumors, abscesses and granulomas, parasitic diseases, traumatic hematoma and brain injury, cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Head, neck and facial features: orbital space-occupying lesions, early sinus cancer, small middle ear cholesteatoma, ossicular destruction and dislocation, slight destruction of the bony labyrinth of the inner ear, congenital ear developmental abnormalities and early detection of nasopharyngeal cancer; cervical spine trauma , intraspinal tumors, intervertebral disc herniation and developmental abnormalities, etc. Chest: lung cancer, mediastinal tumors, interstitial and parenchymal lung lesions, pleura, diaphragm, and chest wall lesions. Pulmonary vasculature, coronary artery disease, coronary artery disease, heart valve and macrovascular disease. Abdomen and pelvis: liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, peritoneal cavity and retroperitoneal space, urinary and reproductive system, especially space-occupying, inflammatory and traumatic lesions; gastrointestinal lesions with outward invasion and adjacent and distant metastasis. Musculoskeletal system diseases: CT shows bone changes, such as destruction and hyperplasia, in more detail than X-rays. Diseases suitable for MRI examination: Nervous system: The display of the brainstem, infratentorial area, foramen magnum area, spinal cord and intervertebral disc is obviously better than that of CT. It has high diagnostic value for brain demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis, cerebral infarction, brain and spinal cord tumors, hematoma, congenital anomalies of the spinal cord and syringomyelia. It is very helpful in the diagnosis of lesions that invade the bone marrow, such as tumors, leukemia, infection, and metabolic diseases; intra-articular lesions, such as knee meniscus and ligament damage, avascular necrosis of the femoral head; soft tissue, and breast diseases, especially breast cancer.
