Prospective evaluation of pancreatic tumors: accuracy of MR imaging with MR cholangiopancreatography and MR angiography.
PURPOSE To prospectively assess accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), and MR angiography in patients suspected of having pancreatic tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty-six patients suspected of having pancreatic tumors underwent MR imaging (unenhanced and contrast material-enhanced MR, MRCP, and contrast-enhanced MR angiography). Two blinded readers ...
متن کاملMultidetector CT and MR Imaging of Cardiac Tumors
The purpose of this article is to provide a current review of the spectrum of multidetector CT (MDCT) and MRI findings for a variety of cardiac neoplasms. In the diagnosis of cardiac tumors, the use of MDCT and MRI can help differentiate benign from malignant masses. Especially, the use of MDCT is advantageous in providing anatomical information and MRI is useful for tissue characterization of ...
متن کاملCardiac MR imaging genotoxicity?
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, including cardiac MR (CMR), is an important, widely used diagnostic tool, and is generally considered a safer alternative to X-ray and radioisotope imaging where there is a clear relationship between exposure to ionizing radiation and increased cancer risk. MR imaging exposes the patient to a mixture of static magnetic fields, time-varying gradient fields, and p...
متن کاملMR imaging of pineal tumors.
MR images of pineal region tumors were analyzed in 26 patients with histologically proved tumors: seven germ-cell tumors, six astrocytomas, five teratomas, three pineoblastomas, two meningiomas, one dermoid, one epidermoid, and one metastasis. In an attempt to identify specific MR characteristics of these lesions, Gd-DTPA was administered to six patients. CSF and blood serum were assayed for al...
متن کاملMR Imaging of Desmoid Tumors
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the modality of choice for imaging desmoid tumors in most cases. MRI uses a series of complex, changing magnetic fields and low energy electromagnetic pulses (radiofrequency waves) to create images of the body. Unlike x-rays and CT scans, MRI emits no ionizing radiation. The standard MR imaging sequences that are used for soft tissue tumor imaging at my insti...
