The utility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in differentiation of benign and malignant diffuse colon wall thickening
To examine the effectiveness of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in differentiation of benign bowel wall thickening and malignant diffuse scirrhous type’s bowel wall thickening. Subject and Methods A total of 81 patients who underwent abdomen diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW MRI) in our clinic between April 2015 and September 2016 was analyzed. Of these patients, 42 ...
متن کاملThe Utility of Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Detection of the Origin of the Brain Solid Metastatic Tumors
Background: Early diagnosis of brain tumors has significant effect on the treatment process. Brain metastatic tumors are usually diagnosed following the neurological symptoms in patients or incidentally after Computerized Tomography (CT) scan and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) requests of the brain. Objectives: Implementation of a new method for being informed about the origin of brain tumors...
متن کاملDynamic Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) and Diffusion Weighted MR Imaging (DWI) for Differentiation between Benign and Malignant Salivary Gland Tumors
Background: Salivary gland tumors form nearly 3% of head and neck tumors. Due to their large histological variety and vicinity to facial nerves, pre-operative diagnosis and differentiation of benign and malignant parotid tumors are a major challenge for radiologists. Objective: The majority of these tumors are benign; however, sometimes they tend to transform into a malignant form. Functional M...
متن کاملAcute vertebral compression fracture: differentiation of malignant and benign causes by diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of diffusion weighted (DWI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis and differentiation between benign (osteoporotic/infectious) and malignant vertebral compression fractures in comparison with histology findings and clinical follow up. METHODS The study was conducted at the Radiology Department, Aga Khan University Hos...
