Prospective evaluation of intracranial cystic mass lesions with in vivo proton MR spectroscopy
Introduction: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an established technique for the evaluation of intracranial mass lesions. It is highly sensitive yet relatively nonspecific. It is not always possible to characterize these lesions on MRI. In-vivo MR spectroscopy (MRS) has shown its utility in the differential diagnosis of cystic intracranial mass lesions (1-3). The results of these studies are ...
متن کاملIn vivo single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy in intracranial cystic masses.
PURPOSE Our objective was to evaluate the proton MR spectroscopic pattern of the cystic contents of various intracranial masses and to report characteristic spectral patterns that may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of these lesions. METHODS We evaluated 40 proton MR spectra obtained from cystic contents of various intracranial cystic masses in 39 patients, including gliomas (n = 14)...
متن کاملCharacterization of intracranial mass lesions with in vivo proton MR spectroscopy.
PURPOSE To assess the use of in vivo proton MR spectroscopy for characterization of intracranial mass lesions and to ascertain its reliability in grading of gliomas. METHODS One hundred twenty patients with intracranial masses were subjected to volume selective spectroscopy using stimulated echo acquisition mode (echo time, 20 and 270 milliseconds) and spin echo (echo time, 135 milliseconds) ...

متن کاملProton MR spectroscopy of tumefactive demyelinating lesions.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Tumefactive demyelinating lesions (TDLs) can simulate intracranial neoplasms in clinical presentation and MR imaging appearance, and surgical biopsy is often performed in suspected tumors. Proton MR spectroscopy has been applied in assessing various intracranial diseases and is increasingly used in diagnosis and clinical management. Our purpose was to determine if multivo...
