The early diagnosis and treatment of spinal fractures and paraplegia by CT scan is investigated in depth and its clinical value is discussed in this paper. In this paper, a novel circulatory generation adversarial network, Spine-GAN, is proposed for the diagnosis of various spinal diseases. The algorithmic model can fully automate the segmentation and classification of multiple spinal structures, such as intervertebral discs, vertebrae, and neuroforamina, simultaneously to intelligently generate a complete clinical diagnosis. The innovation of this method is that Spine-GAN not only overcomes the high variability and complexity of spinal structures in MRI images but also preserves the subtle differences between normal and abnormal spinal structures and dynamically learns obscure but important spatial pathological relationships between adjacent structures of the spine, thus overcoming the limitations of small datasets. Spine-GAN enables accurate segmentation, radiological classification, and pathological correlation representation of the three spinal diseases. Specifically, Spine-GAN achieves a pixel accuracy of 96.2% with a specificity and sensitivity distribution of 89.1% and 86%, respectively. The DMML-Net and Spine-GAN algorithm models have important applications and research values in the clinical diagnosis of spinal diseases and MRI image processing, as well as in the intelligent generation of medical image diagnostic reports, which are of great importance for the study of fine-grained image classification of pathological images. It also has a positive impact on the development of the software.

Internal hernias are an infrequent cause of intestinal obstruction with an incidence of 0.2-0.9%, therefore their early diagnosis represents a challenge. The most frequently herniated organ is the small bowel, which results in a wide spectrum of symptoms, varying from mild abdominal pain to acute abdomen. We present the case of an eight-year old patient with nonspecific digestive symptoms, a transoperative diagnosis was made in which an internal hernia was found strangulated by plastron in the distal third of the appendix. Appendectomy was performed and four days later the patient was discharged without complications.

Abstract Background Early diagnosis of meningitis with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) would be useful for appropriate and effective management, decrease morbidity and mortality, and provide better diagnosis and treatment. The objective of the current study is to compare the accuracy of contrast-enhanced FLAIR (CE-FLAIR) and contrast-enhanced T1WI (CE-T1WI) in the detection of meningeal abnormalities in suspected cases of meningitis. Results Out of 45 patients, 37 patients were confirmed to have meningitis on CSF analysis. Out of the 37 patients, 34 patients were positive on CE-FLAIR sequence and 27 were positive on CE-T1WI. The sensitivity of CE-FLAIR sequence was 91.9% and specificity 100%, while the sensitivity of CE-T1WI sequence was 73% and specificity 100%. Conclusion CE-FLAIR is more sensitive than CE-T1WI in diagnosis of meningitis. It is recommended to be used in any cases with clinically suspected meningitis.
