MR imaging of the cranial meninges with emphasis on contrast enhancement and meningeal carcinomatosis.
MR imaging was used to investigate normal and abnormal meningeal enhancement, with an emphasis on meningeal carcinomatosis. Three groups of patients were studied on a 1.5-T system. In group 1, the normal meninges were examined in 20 patients and were found to show fine linear enhancement in short segments, especially in a parasagittal distribution. In group 2, all gadolinium-enhanced head scans...

To the Editor: We read with interest the case report “Postpartum postural headache due to superior sagittal sinus thrombosis mistaken for spontaneous intracranial hypotension” by Chilsholm and Campbell.1 In that report a patient was eventually diagnosed with a sagittal sinus thrombosis after undergoing a lumbar epidural blood patch (LEBP). Of note, the patient had a magnetic resonance imaging (...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging findings before and after treatment of spontaneous intracranial hypotension.
The syndrome of spontaneous intracranial hypotension is characterised by postural headache, low CSF pressure, and MRI findings of diVuse pachymeningeal gadolinium enhancement without a history of head or back trauma or lumbar puncture. We report on the MRI findings of a patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension, before and after treatment. A 44 year old woman presented with severe subac...
متن کاملBrain Volume Estimation Enhancement by Morphological Image Processing Tools
Background: Volume estimation of brain is important for many neurological applications. It is necessary in measuring brain growth and changes in brain in normal/abnormal patients. Thus, accurate brain volume measurement is very important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the method of choice for volume quantification due to excellent levels of image resolution and between-tissue contrast. St...

OBJECTIVE To describe the CT and MRI features of hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) caused by herbal medicine Gynura segetum. MATERIALS AND METHODS The CT and MRI features of 16 consecutive Gynura segetum induced HSOS cases (12 men, 4 women) were analyzed. Eight patients had CT; three patients had MRI, and the remaining five patients had both CT and MRI examinations. Based on thei...
