Gadolinium enhanced MRI predicts clinical and MRI
11 November 1996 Accepted 20 November 1996 Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate the predictive power of baseline gadolinium (Gd) enhanced MRI in relation to subsequent clinical and MRI activity. Sixty eight patients with clinically definite relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis had a baseline Gd enhanced MRI and were followed up clinically and by monthly Gd enhanced MRI for six months...
متن کاملEvaluation of focal cartilage lesions of the knee using MRI T2 mapping and delayed Gadolinium Enhanced MRI of Cartilage (dGEMRIC)
BACKGROUND Assessment of degenerative changes of the cartilage is important in knee cartilage repair surgery. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) T2 mapping and delayed Gadolinium Enhanced MRI of Cartilage (dGEMRIC) are able to detect early degenerative changes. The hypothesis of the study was that cartilage surrounding a focal cartilage lesion in the knee does not possess degenerative changes. ...
متن کاملChronic infiltrative lung diseases: value of gadolinium-enhanced MRI in the evaluation of disease activity--early report.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine the value of gadolinium-enhanced MRI in the assessment of disease activity in chronic infiltrative lung diseases (CILDs). DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING University hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five consecutive patients with CILD were studied. The following diseases were diagnosed: sarcoidosis (n = 10), bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumon...
متن کاملMRI Characterization of Renal Lesions
The serendipitous discovery of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is increasing with the proliferation of cross-sectional imaging studies (1). This discovery can lead to management quandaries as the natural history and growth rates of small incidentally detected renal masses are variable (2). Active surveillance approaches have been suggested to avoid unnecessary surgical and ablation procedures, espec...
متن کاملMultiparametric Evaluation of Breast Lesions Using PET-MRI
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of multiparametric evaluation of breast lesions combining information of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and F-fluoro-deoxi-glucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT). After approval of the institutional research ethics committee, 31 ...
