Multiplanar metrizamide-enhanced CT imaging of the foramen magnum.
Definition of masses and malformations at the foramen magnum has been less than optimal with traditional radiographic techniques. The use of intrathecal metrizamide with computed tomographic (CT) scanning improves contrast resolution and facilitates detection of abnormalities that may not be apparent on Pantopaque cisternography, plain films, or conventional axial CT alone. Fifty patients with ...
متن کاملVentral foramen magnum meninigiomas.
OBJECT Ventral foramen magnum meningiomas (VFMMs) are rare lesions that account for more than 3% of all meningiomas. These are among the most challenging of all meningiomas to treat. The authors comprehensively analyzed multiple features in a series of VFMMs. METHODS A retrospective study was performed of 18 patients who harbored a meningioma in the ventral foramen magnum (mean follow-up peri...

متن کاملoving Beam Helical CT Scanning
Images generated with helical scanning are degraded by partial volume artifacts caused by an increased slice thickness when compared to conventional computed tomography (CT) scanning. The slice thickness for a helical scan is proportional to the sum of the thickness of the fan of radiation and the distance the patient moves during data acquisition. We present a method called moving beam helical...
