Can Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and Diffusion-Weighted MRI (DW-MRI) Evaluate Inflammation Disease
The aim of the study was to investigate diagnosis efficacy of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) in Crohn's disease (CD). To find out the correlations between functional MRI parameters including K, Kep, Ve, Vp, and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) with a serologic biomarker. The relationships between pharmacokinetic parameters and ADC were also studi...
متن کاملRectal cancer
The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term test-retest reproducibility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) parameters of rectal cancer with 3.0T MRI.Twenty-six patients with rectal cancer underwent MRI, including diffusion-weighted imaging with 8 b values. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters (D, pure diffusion; ...
متن کاملDiffusion-Weighted (DW) Imaging in Ovarian Cystic Lesions: Value of DW Imaging Compared to T2-weighted Imaging at 3T MRI
Purpose : Only a few studies on diffusion weighted (DW) imaging of ovarian lesions have been reported (1-3). In previous studies, the role of DW imaging in distinguishing between benign and malignant cystic tumors may be limited. Katayama et al (3) reported that apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values may not provide additional information, especially to discriminate benign from malignant l...
متن کاملDiffusion Weighted vGRASE (DW-vGRASE)
Introduction The GRASE (GRadient And Spin Echo) pulse sequence was proposed about two decades ago for T2-weighted imaging. GRASE suffers however from image ghosting due to the T2-modulation of the data. A vertical GRASE pulse sequence (vGRASE) was for that reason later introduced by Oshio, in which the EPI trains, following each RF echo, were modified to cover each a vertical instead of a horiz...
متن کاملRecurrence and Metastasis of Lung Cancers Demonstrate Decreased Diffusion on Diffusion-Weighted MRI
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) exploits the random, translational motion, or so-called Brownian movement, of water molecules in biologic tissue (Le Bihan et al., 1988). Recently, DWI has been used to detect the restricted diffusion of water molecules in the body. The primary use of DWI has been in brain imaging, mainly for the evaluation of intracranial tumors, acute ischem...
