21. Strictures of the male urethra: how to perform and evaluate radiourethrography and sonourethrography to avoid mistakesDarja Babnik-Peskar, Alenka Višnar-Perovič, 2000, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Introduction. Precise evaluation of the uretheral stricture localisation, length, depth and quality of wall changes are necessary for the selection of the optimal treatment to prevent recurrences. Decision for urethral dilatation, internal urethrotomy or open surgery depends on urethroscopic, radiourethrographic-RUG, and recently, according to MC Annich, also sonourethrographic-SUG results. SUG adds information about the depth and density of spongiofibrosis. Previously published findings of RUG length underestimation, compared to SUG and endoscopy, were responsible for inappropriate treatment and recurrences. In our article, we evaluate SUG as a new imaging method in the diagnosis of uretheral strictures and treatment planning, and describe both imaging methods together with usual pitfalls in performance or interpretation, possible reason for incorrect length measurements, and RUG length underestimation. Patients and methods. In the period of 20 months, we evaluated SUG compared to RUG and endoscopy in 51/130 males with suspected urethral strictures. Results. Compared to RUG, sonographywas correct in 92% radiographycally detected strictures. Length measurements by sonography were 22% shorter than radiographic lengths, which could be explained by radiographic magnification, as it was proved with wire measure placed on penis. Considering radiographic magnification, we did not find important differences in any measurement. Opposite to previously published RUG results compared to endoscopy and SUG, radiographic length underestimation was not found. Conclusions. The combination of both imaging methods provides optimal information about urethral stricture anatomy. We conclude that published radiographic length underestimation could be only a misinterpretation. (Abstract truncated at 2000 characters).

22. Comparison of colorimetric MTT and clonogenic assays for irradiation and cisplatin treatment on murine fibrosarcoma SA-1 cellsMaja Čemažar, Darja Marolt, Mira Lavrič, Gregor Serša, 1999, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Background. The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between cell survival of SA-1 tumor cells measured by clonogenic assay and MTT assay after irradiation and cisplatin treatment. Materials and methods. Survival of SA-1 cells was measured after irradiation (2-8 Gy) and cisplatin treatment (0.05-0.5 u g/ml) by clonogenic assay performed 7 days after treatment, and byMTT assay performed on day 3, 4, 5, and 7 after the treatment. Results. The results showed good correlation between MTT assay and clonogenic assay for irradiation doses below 4 Gy. For higher doses good correlation between MTT and clonogenic assay was determined only when MTT assay was performed on day 5and 7 after the treatment. In the case of cisplatin treatment, similar pattern was observed, good correlation between IC50 values for MTT and clonogenic assay was found when MTT assay was performed on day 5 and 7 after the treatment. Conclusion. Results of our study confirmed the results of previous studies addressing this topic and further support the use of MTT testas an alternative test for clonogenic test as a predictive assay of tumourresponse to the radio or chemotherapy.
