Combined fat- and water-suppressed MR imaging of orbital tumors.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The use of a high-resolution T2-weighted MR sequence, which suppresses signal from both fat and water, has been shown to be highly effective for depicting areas of inflammatory damage within the optic nerve. The ability of this sequence to show neoplastic and inflammatory orbital lesions, which may mimic neuritis, is unknown. This study was designed to examine the charact...
متن کاملMR 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 ...
متن کاملNormal contrast enhancement of extraocular muscles: fat-suppressed MR findings.
PURPOSE To evaluate contrast enhancement of normal extraocular muscles in the orbit. METHODS Noncontrast and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images of the orbit were acquired using a fat-suppression MR technique in eight patients with no orbital disease. Contrast enhancement of 64 extraocular muscles was evaluated and compared with that of 16 temporal muscles. RESULTS Compared with temporal m...
متن کاملComparative 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...
