Neuro-Behcet's disease: diffusion MR imaging and proton MR spectroscopy.
We herein report the case of a 53-year-old woman with Behcet's disease and an acute T2-hyperintense lesion in left side of the pons. Echo-planar "trace" diffusion MR imaging revealed high signal intensity changes at the lesion site on b = 1000 s/mm(2) images, initially suggesting restricted diffusion. On corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient maps, however, the lesion had high signal inte...
متن کاملSubacute sclerosing panencephalitis findings at MR imaging, diffusion MR imaging, and proton MR spectroscopy.
A case of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis in a 2-year-old boy is reported. In addition to asymmetric lesions in the parietotemporal lobes, right thalamus, and globus pallidus, symmetric patterns were notable in the brain stem, middle cerebellar pedincles, and dentate nuclei. Proton MR spectroscopy revealed markedly decreased N-acetylaspartate peaks and normal choline and myo-inositol levels...
متن کاملComparison of state-of-the-art atlas-based bone segmentation approaches from brain MR images for MR-only radiation planning and PET/MR attenuation correction
Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...
متن کاملPantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration: MR imaging, proton MR spectroscopy, and diffusion MR imaging findings.
We herein report the case of a 15-year-old male patient with pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration. The classic "eye-of-the-tiger" appearance was initially present on the globus pallidi on T2-weighted MR images and had disappeared by the time of the 10-month follow-up examination. Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images revealed marked hypointensity in the globus pallidi and denta...
متن کاملProton MR Spectroscopy
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has been in use in biochemistry labs for more than 50 yr. In its earlier years, it was used primarily for in vitro chemical analysis of small samples. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful imaging technique that combines exquisite sensitivity to soft tissue contrast with the ability to demonstrate anatomy in many different planes and projec...
