Metabolic abnormalities in pain-processing regions of patients with fibromyalgia: a 3T MR spectroscopy study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A growing body of evidence suggests the involvement of the brain in FM. The purpose of this proton MRS study was to test the hypothesis that there are metabolic alterations in some brain regions processing pain (VLPFC and thalamus) in patients with FM compared with HC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve patients with FM (30-54 years of age; mean age, 43.2 years), and 12 HC, m...
متن کاملMarchiafava-Bignami disease: longitudinal MR imaging and MR spectroscopy study.
A case of Marchiafava-Bignami disease was serially evaluated with MR imaging and MR spectroscopy at 1, 2, 4, and 11 months after the onset of symptoms. The first MR imaging study showed extensive abnormal signal intensity of the corpus callosum without macroscopic changes; a diagnosis of Marchiafava-Bignami disease was made, and vitamin therapy was initiated. Follow-up studies showed progressiv...

15 صفحه اولAbnormal brain chemistry in chronic back pain: an in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy study.
The neurobiology of chronic pain, including chronic back pain, is unknown. Structural imaging studies of the spine cannot explain all cases of chronic back pain. Functional brain imaging studies indicate that the brain activation patterns are different between chronic pain patients and normal subjects, and the thalamus, and prefrontal and cingulate cortices are involved in some types of chronic...
متن کاملMR spectroscopy in radiation injury.
Detecting a new area of contrast enhancement in or in the vicinity of a previously treated brain tumor always causes concern for both the patient and the physician. The question that immediately arises is whether this new lesion is recurrent tumor or a treatment effect. The differentiation of recurrent tumor or progressive tumor from radiation injury after radiation therapy is often a radiologi...
