BACKGROUND Despite the increased popularity of fat grafting of the breasts, there remain unanswered questions. There is currently no standard for technique or data regarding long-term volume maintenance with this procedure. Because of the sensitive nature of breast tissue, there is a need for radiographic evaluation, focusing on volume maintenance and on tissue viability. This study was designe...

conclusions our study revealed that patients with the diagnosis of breast cancer have greater bpe in comparison with control group. the results may be indicative for higher probability of developing breast cancer in patients with higher bpe. therefore, ce-mri could be a useful tool for breast cancer risk assessment. objectives background parenchymal enhancement (bpe) on contrast-enhanced magnet...

In women with BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic mutations, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is more sensitive for detecting breast cancers than mammography, ultrasound or clinical examination alone.

case presentation we report a 5-year-old boy, who was presented with sudden right hand monoparesis and dysarthria. conclusions the patient was investigated with magnetic resonance angiography and diagnosed as md. introduction moyamoya disease (md) is a disorder caused by blocked arteries at the base of the brain. as the normal blood vessels narrow and become blocked, a person may suffer a strok...

ebstein anomaly is characterized by apical displacement of the septal and posterior tricuspid valve leaflets, leading to atrialization of the right ventricle and could be diagnosed in a routine transthoracic echocardiography exam. we reported a young man with right sided heart failure symptoms who was found to have biventricular failure with suspected apical displacement of septal leaflet of tr...

conclusion fs t2 w and ce fs t1 w sequences of axial planes were the most useful sequences in determination of active sacroiliitis. therefore, in patients with renal failure or allergy to contrast media, fs t2 wi can be obtained to detect active sacroiliitis. objectives the aim of this retrospective study was to assess the value of different magnetic resonance imaging (mri) sequences in evaluat...

conclusion adrenal iron in β-tm can be reliably measured in 3 tesla mri. the results highlight the absence of correlation between adrenal iron deposition both with serum ferritin and hepatic iron. results among patients, there was no significant correlation between plasma ferritin and adrenal t2*. significant difference was detected among t2* values of adrenals between the patient and control g...

introduction: the use of high-cost and high-tech magnetic resonance imaging (mri) has expanded over the past decade. a recently conducted research reported various causes with regard to their own country and healthcare system included aging population and advances in diagnostic technologies which could result in diagnostic services to become more applicable in clinical arena. increasing number ...
