Whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging in lymphoma
The current evidence regarding the usefulness of whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) in lymphoma is reviewed. DWI is capable of combining anatomical and functional information and is becoming a valuable tool in oncology, in particular for staging purposes. DWI may prove to be a useful biomarker in clinical decision making for patients with lymphoma. Large-scaled prosp...
متن کاملSTIR MR imaging of the orbit.
Fifteen patients with CT-documented orbital lesions were evaluated with MR imaging at 1.5 T with both conventional spin-echo (SE) and short inversion time inversion recovery (STIR) sequences. Fat signal was reliably nulled at inversion times of approximately 120-200 msec in all cases, thereby allowing clear detection of all retrobulbar lesions and normal structures on STIR images as markedly hy...
متن کاملThe STIR sequence in MR imaging.
A recent paper on MR imaging of infectious spondylitis [1) elaborated on and substantiated a previous report [2) of STIR in the evaluation of spinal infection. However, it also contained an important error in pulse sequence nomenclature: STIR was described as "short T1 inversion recovery. " The STIR sequence was described and named by Drs. Bydder, Young, and Steiner [3 , 4) as "short Tl inversi...
متن کاملWhole-body-MR-diffusion weighted imaging in oncology.
UNLABELLED The clinical implementation of whole body diffusion weighted imaging (WB-DWI) for tumor-detection, -characterization and therapy monitoring is well underway. The method is fast, robust and combined with its wide availability on modern MRI scanners, it has a vast potential clinical impact. Owing to the high tumor to background contrast, its main application areas are simple detection ...
متن کاملFat Suppressed FSE Pelvic MR Imaging with Two New FSE Based Dixon Pulse Sequences: A Comparison of IDEAL FSE and FSE Triple Echo Dixon
Background: Fat suppressed FSE T2-weighted imaging is an integral part of an MR pelvic examination. However, fat suppression by conventional technique can be degraded by inhomogeneities of the magnetic field. The problem can be exacerbated when a typical large FOV is used for abdominal and pelvic imaging. Techniques that provide fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging that is insensitive to field in...
