MR sialography in the Diagnosis of Sj^|^ouml;gren's syndrome

MR sialography in patients with Sjögren syndrome.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of MR sialography of the parotid gland ducts in the diagnosis and staging of Sjögren syndrome. METHODS MR imaging was performed on a 1.5-T unit with a neck phased-array coil. MR sialographic source images were obtained using a heavily T2-weighted fast spin-echo sequence with spectral fat suppression. All images were analyzed ...

Comparative study of MR sialography and digital subtraction sialography for benign salivary gland disorders.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE MR sialography has become an alternative imaging technique for ductal salivary gland diseases. We compared the diagnostic accuracies of MR sialography and digital subtraction sialography in patients with successful completion of both examinations and benign salivary gland disorders. METHODS In a prospective study, we attempted to examine salivary glands in 80 patients w...

Conventional MRI techniques combined with MR sialography on T2-3D-DRIVE in Sjögren syndrome.

AIM To investigate the value of conventional MRI techniques combined with MR sialography on T2-3D-DRIVE in the diagnosis of Sjögren syndrome (SS). METHODS 107 patients were divided into SS group and non-SS group. Conventional MRI techniques, such as T1WI, T2WI, and STIR images were used for changes of fat signal in the parotid gland, while the MR sialography were used for ducts dilation of th...
