Diffusion-weighted MRI findings in patients with capsular warning syndrome.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The 'capsular warning syndrome' (CWS) of recurrent stereotyped episodes of motor or sensory dysfunction is clinically well recognized, and is associated with a high risk of imminent lacunar infarction with permanent deficits resembling those of CWS. However, the pathophysiology of CWS has not been well characterized. We report a clinicoanatomic correlation with MR imaging...
متن کاملRole of Apparent diffusion coefficient value in Diffusion Weighted imaging of MRI to assessment of radiotherapy efficiency in the patient with glioma tumor during treatment
Introduction: Glioma is the most common primary malignancy of cerebral neoplasms in adults, which in spite of therapeutic significant efforts, has a very poor prognosis. The current standard treatment of these patients generally includes surgery and radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy with 6 courses of adjuvant use of temozolomide tabs. During these years, the nervous...

BACKGROUND Intrathoracic splenosis is a rare condition resulting from concomitant rupture of the spleen and left hemidiaphragm after a traumatic event involving the spleen and the diaphragma and is defined as autotransplantation of splenic tissue in thorax. CASE REPORT The aim of this study was to present a case report of a combined intrathoracic and subcutaneous splenosis in a patient 19 yea...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted MRI findings of treated and untreated retroperitoneal fibrosis.
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) findings in patients with treated and untreated retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF). METHODS We analyzed magnetic resonance imaging examinations of 44 RPF patients (36 male, 8 female), of which 15 were untreated and 29 were under therapy. Qualitative DWI and T1 postcontrast signal intensities and the largest perivascular extent of RPF w...
متن کاملDiffusion-Weighted MRI Can Detect Nonpalpable Undescended Testes Diagnostic Performance of Diffusion-Weighted MRI in the Detection of Nonpalpable Undescended Testes: Comparison With Conventional MRI and Surgical Findings
Participants/Methods: This study was comprised of 36 boys with undescended testes. The patients underwent preoperative MR imaging examinations with a 1.5-T system. Sequences included axial and coronal fat-suppressed turbo spin-echo T2-weighted, axial and coronal T1-weighted, and axial single-shot spin-echo echo-planar diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequence performed with b-values of 50, 400,...
