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...

Liver cancer is the sixth most common in world and fourth leading cause of mortality. In unresectable liver cancers, especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), transarterial radioembolisation (TARE) can be considered for treatment. TARE treatment involves a contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) exam performed beforehand to delineate tumour(s) order perform dosimetry calculation....

BACKGROUND & AIMS Liver computed tomography and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging play an important role in the early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) recommend the use of applied imaging studies for HCC diagnosis only in cirrhotic patients. This study aimed to comprehensively compare liver CT and dynamic MRI for H...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the application of dual-source CT perfusion imaging and MRI for the diagnosis of primary liver cancer. Sixty-three patients with primary liver cancer were selected between February 2015 and May 2016. All patients underwent examinations by dual-source CT perfusion imaging and MRI. The perfusion parameters of the focus center and normal liver par...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been considered for the quantification of iron overload in liver. Iron was found to correlate with T2* measurement using weighted images. In this work, we address problem estimation liver MRI. We propose a general framework all models proposed literature. The task is then formulated as minimization problem, and suitable regularization functions are assigned ...

Magnetic nanoparticles are the good choice for using in MRI as the contrast agent. Iron oxide particles such as magnetite (Fe3O4) or its oxidized form maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) are the most commonly employed in biomedical applications. In this study, we synthesized and optimized the preparation of chitosan manganese-ferrite nanoparticles (CMn-Fe nps) and evaluated its ability for the mice macrophage ...

OBJECTIVES Hepatic steatosis is associated with an increased risk of developing serious liver disease and other clinical sequelae of the metabolic syndrome. However, visual estimates of steatosis from histological sections of biopsy samples are subjective and reliant on an invasive procedure with associated risks. The aim of this study was to test the ability of a rapid, routinely available, ma...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of bellows-based respiratory compensation and navigated hepatobiliary phase imaging to correct for respiratory motion in the setting of dedicated liver PET/MRI. METHODS Institutional review board approval and informed consent were obtained. Six patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumor were imaged using Ga-68 DOTA-TOC PET/MR...
