OBJECTIVE@#To provide useful information for the further production and application of this novel radio-nuclide for potential clinical application.@*METHODS@#124Te (p,n) 124I nuclide reaction was used for the 124I production. Firstly, the target material, 124TeO2 (200 mg) and Al2O3 (30 mg) mixture, were compressed into the round platinum based solid target by tablet device. HM-20 medical cyclotron was applied to irradiate the solid target slice for 6-10 h with helium and water cooling. Then, the radiated solid target was placed for 12 h (overnight) to decay the radioactive impurity; finally, 124I was be purified by dry distillation using 1 mL/min nitrogen for about 6 hours and radiochemical separation methods. Micro-PET imaging studies were performed to investigate the metabolism properties and thyroid imaging ability of 124I.After 740 kBq 124I was injected intravenously into the tail vein of the normal mice, the animals were imaged with micro-PET and infused with CT. The micro-PET/CT infusion imaging revealed actual state 124I's metabolism in the mice.@*RESULTS@#It was been successfully applied for 200 mg 124TeO2 plating by the tablet device on the surface of platinum. It showed smooth, dense surface and without obviously pits and cracks. The enriched 124Te target was irradiated for 6 to 10 hours at about 12.0 MeV with 20 μA current on HM-20 cyclotron. Then 370-1 110 MBq 124I could be produced on the solid target after irradiation and 370-740 MBq high specific activity could be collected afterdry distillation separation and radio-chemical purification.124I product was finally dissolved in 0.01 mol/L NaOH for the future distribution. The gamma spectrum of the produced 124I-solution showed that radionuclide purity was over 80.0%. The micro-PET imaging of 124I in the normal mice exhibited the thyroid and stomach accumulations and kidney metabolism, the bladder could also be clearly visible, which was in accordance with what was previously reported. To the best of our knowledge, it was the first production of 124I report in China.@*CONCLUSION@#In this study, the preparation of 124TeO2 solid target was successfully carried out by using the tablet device. After irradiation of the 124TeO2 solid target and radio-chemical purification, we successfully produced 370-740 MBq high specific activity 124I by a cyclotron for biomedical application, and micro-PET imaging of 124I in normal mice exhibited the thyroid accumulations. Also, slight uptake in stomach were also monitored with almost nonuptake in other organs in the micro-PET imaging. The production of 124I is expected to provide a new solid target radionuclide for the scientific research and potential clinical application of our country.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To report replantation of amputated ear with microtechnique in 5 cases.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From 2002 to 2005, 5 totally amputated ears were replanted and 4 obediently, 1 retrogressively. In every case, 1-2 arteries and 1-3 veins were anastomosed. Seven vessels were detective and 1-6 cm vessels were transplanted from forearm or dorsal side of hand. Amputated ears obtained blood supply again in about 6-10 hours after injury and exploration was enforced for venous crisis in 2 cases, and bloodletting in 1 case.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All 5 cases survived. Auricles possess perfect shape, no pigmentation, slight atrophy and perfect sensation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Amputated ear should be replanted as long as no obvious contusion occurred, and the keys to prevent vascular crisis are cutting off unhealthy vessels, grafting superficial veins for bridging, and the high quality of vascular anastomosis.</p>

Objective To investigate the clinical method of closing defect and regain the sensory on forefoot injury.Methods Lateral tarsal artery,flap was designed as a reverse flow flap to close forefoot de- fect in dorsal lateral foot while perforating branche of lateral tarsal artery as turning point.Lateral cutaneous nerve was inosculated to lateral plantar fascia.Donor site was covered by skin-grafting.Results seventeen cases survived satisfactorily with good shape and regaining sensory.Conclusion Lateral tarsal artery flap can be used in coveraged of forefoot defect.Lateral tarsal artery flap was thin flap with good shape and to regain the sensory of forefoot.
