intracranial gliosis has no typical clinical signals or imaging characteristics. therefore, it can be easily misdiagnosed as neoplasm. hereby, we report a unique case of gliosis that grew outward from the surface of the brain. mri depicted its signal and enhancement pattern similar to the cerebral gray matter. the diagnosis was confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry. although it was di...

dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is an uncommon malignant mesenchymal tumor of the dermis, which most commonly appears on the body and extremities. a preoperative diagnosis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is extremely difficult, because it is a very rare entity and its appearance is often similar to that of benign breast lesion. here, we presented a case of breast dermatofibrosarcoma protuber...

objective: the purpose of this pilot study was to determine whether the mri and biomarkers human epididymis protein 4 (he 4 ) and ca 125 correlate with depth of myometrial invasion, histologic grade, cervical involvement and nodal metastases in patients with endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the uterus. materials and methods: this was a prospective, observational study in women with biopsy-proven ...

background: mr imaging is one of the best diagnostic modalities in medicine. during an mr imaging examination, three types of field are employed to produce images. various experimental studies have been performed about the effects of each single type of field but only few studies are available on their combination to generate mr imaging. the main objective of this research work is to study the ...

anxiety and depression are very common in population and occur in a wide range of clinical states and is very common in epileptic patients. many recent epidemiological studies have found a high prevalence of depression and anxiety in epileptic patients. these studies found that epileptic patients suffered from depression and anxiety than those without epilepsy. the prevalence of depression or a...

background: abnormal angulation of the lunate can be an indication of intercarpal pathology. on magnetic resonance images (mris) the lunate often looks dorsally angulated, even in healthy wrists. the tilt on individual slices can also be different and might be misinterpreted as pathological, contributing to inaccurate diagnoses and unnecessary surgery. the primary aim of this study was to deter...

magnetic resonance imaging (mri) uses a constant magnetic field and radio waves, a non-invasive method for examining tissues, organs and the skeletal system. the advantages and disadvantages of mri is not fully understood. in the computerized tumor (ct) scan, as an invasive method, the x-rays of the body is used for tomography; which different x-ray attenuation coefficient in tissues as well as...
