MR imaging of brain abscesses.
The MR images and CT scans of 14 patients with surgically verified pyogenic cerebral abscesses were reviewed. The MR findings correlated well with those seen on CT and were believed to be sufficiently characteristic to allow early and accurate diagnosis with MR alone. These features include (1) peripheral edema producing mild hypointensity on short TR/short TE and marked hyperintensity on long ...
متن کاملTongue abscesses: MR imaging findings.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A lingual abscess is difficult to diagnose in the absence of physical signs. MR imaging may provide an excellent and invaluable adjunct to clinical examination, but the literature is incomplete in defining the various MR imaging findings of abscess. The objective of this study was to determine the MR imaging features of tongue abscesses. METHODS Seven surgically proved ...
متن کاملProton MR spectroscopy of brain abscesses.
We read with great interest the article by Pal et al. The authors reported on their experience with the application of proton MR (HMR) spectroscopy in the imaging evaluation of patients harboring intracranial abscess. In their retrospective study, they examined 194 patient charts and imaging studies, and they concluded that the detection of cytosolic amino acids is a strong indication of an abs...
متن کاملIn vivo differentiation of aerobic brain abscesses and necrotic glioblastomas multiforme using proton MR spectroscopic imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Abscesses caused by aerobic bacteria (aerobic abscesses) can simulate intracranial glioblastomas multiforme (GBMs) in MR imaging appearance and single voxel (SV) proton MR spectroscopy of the central cavity. The purpose of our study was to determine whether MR spectroscopic imaging (SI) can be used to differentiate aerobic abscesses from GBMs. Our hypothesis was that meta...
