متن کاملMR and CT of occult vascular malformations of the brain.
The need for improved specificity in the diagnosis of "occult" vascular malformations led to the use of MR in suspected cases in order to determine MR's potential for improved diagnostic accuracy. Six patients with six lesions histologically diagnosed as vascular malformation after partial (1) or complete (5) microsurgical excision were studied by CT, MR, and selective magnification subtraction...

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of various upper extremity positions (adduction-abduction) on vascular structures in contrast-enhanced three-dimensional MR angiographic studies performed in patients with thoracic outlet syndrome. Materials and Methods: Twenty-two consecutive patients with clinical symptoms of neurovascular thoracic outlet syndrome were examined by...
متن کاملSpinal cord vascular disease: characterization with fast three-dimensional contrast-enhanced MR angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Noninvasive characterization of spinal vascular lesions is essential for guiding clinical management, and several MR angiographic techniques have been applied in the past with variable results. The purpose of our study was to assess the potential of a dynamic 3D contrast-enhanced MR angiographic sequence to characterize spinal vascular lesions and to identify their arteri...
