Prostate cancer: evaluation of vascular characteristics with dynamic contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MR imaging--initial experience.
PURPOSE To use contrast material-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and a distributed-parameter tracer kinetics model for prospectively evaluating the vascular characteristics of prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-two patients between 57 and 76 years of age (mean age, 67 years) with histologically proved adenocarcinoma of the prostate were examined by using three-dimensional ...
متن کاملEctopic Posterior Pituitary in Macroadenomas: Demonstration by Dynamic MR Imaging
Introduction The ectopic posterior pituitary is an aberrant accumulation of neurosecretory materials at the median eminence or infundibular stem resulting in functional preservation of hormonal production and release, which is often seen in patients with transection of the pituitary stalk (1). W can also be developed due to compression to the hypothalamohypophsial tract by alarge macroadenoma (...
متن کاملProstate cancer localization with dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and proton MR spectroscopic imaging.
PURPOSE To prospectively determine the accuracies of T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, dynamic contrast material-enhanced MR imaging, and quantitative three-dimensional (3D) proton MR spectroscopic imaging of the entire prostate for prostate cancer localization, with whole-mount histopathologic section findings as the reference standard. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was approve...
متن کامل7T clinical cardiovascular MR imaging: initial experience
Background Recently, high-field 7T MR imaging was introduced. The higher field-strength has potential advantages, mainly related to increased signal-to-noise-ratio. One of the potentially exciting applications may be cardiovascular MR imaging. Cardiovascular MRI requires robust correction for heart motion, breathing motion and correction of field inhomogeneities. Therefore, cardiovascular imagi...
متن کاملIntravoxel incoherent motion MR imaging in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: comparison and correlation with dynamic contrast enhanced MR imaging
OBJECTIVES To compare accuracy and assess agreement between intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) magnetic resonance (MR) perfusion-related parameters and quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MR parameters in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). RESULTS D, f, D*, Ktrans , Kep and Vp were significantly lower in the high stage group while Ve was significantly higher in the high stage group. Op...
