Image Non-Uniformity Correction for 3-T Gd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced MR Imaging of the Liver
PURPOSE Image non-uniformity may cause substantial problems in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging especially when a 3-T scanner is used. We evaluated the effect of image non-uniformity correction in gadolinium ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MR imaging using a 3-T scanner. METHODS Two commercially available methods for image non-uniformity correction, surf...
متن کاملCharacterization of Incidental Liver Lesions: Comparison of Multidetector CT versus Gd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced MR Imaging
As a result of recent developments in imaging modalities and wide spread routine medical checkups and screening, more incidental liver lesions are found frequently on US these days. When incidental liver lesions are found on US, physicians have to make a decision whether to just follow up or to undergo additional imaging studies for lesion characterization. In order to choose the next appropria...
متن کاملCombining diffusion-weighted MR imaging with Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MR imaging improves the detection of colorectal liver metastases
Introduction: In patients with colorectal cancer, accurate assessment of the size, location and segmental distribution of liver metastases on a per-lesion basis is critical for treatment planning. Diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DW-MRI) has a high sensitivity and specificity for liver metastasis detection [1-3]. Combining DW-MRI with T1-weighted imaging after liver specific contrast medium Magaf...
متن کاملGd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MR relaxometry for the detection and staging of liver fibrosis
Gd-EOB-DTPA, a liver-specific contrast agent with T1-shortening effects, is routinely used in clinical routine for detection and characterization of focal liver lesions and has recently received increasing attention as a tool for the quantitative analyses of liver function. We report the relationship between the extent of Gd-EOB-DTPA- induced T1 relaxation and the degree of liver fibrosis, whic...
متن کاملGd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced MR Guidance in Thermal Ablation of Liver Malignancies
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potency of Gd-EOB-DTPA to support hepatic catheter placement in laser ablation procedures by quantifying time-dependent delineation effects for instrumentation and target tumor within liver parenchyma. Monitoring potential influence on online MR thermometry during the ablation procedure is a secondary aim. MATERIALS AND METHODS 30 cases of MR-guided laser ablation we...
