Magnetic resonance imaging in Huntington disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Four patients with Huntington disease were imaged using CT and inversion-recovery magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. In all four patients the caudate nucleus and corpus striatum were well demonstrated and noted to be atrophic. MR is believed to be superior to CT for imaging morphologic changes of Huntington disease.

Introduction: The correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (RVEF and LVEF, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in RVEF and LVEF. The aim of the present study was to compare LVEF and RVEF in patients with ischemic heart disease. RVEF and LVEF were measured by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging. Materials a...

Introduction: Despite growing interest in the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the external radiotherapy design process (RT), Computer Tomography (CT) remains a gold standard and is regarded as a basic imaging modality in radiotherapy. MRI shows the high contrast in soft tissues without any radiation exposure to patients. As a result, MRI is used in functional tissue ...
