background: to analyze the characteristic performance of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (mrs) and susceptibility weighted imaging (swi) in cerebral alve-olar echinococcosis (cae). methods: we retrospectively analyzed 10 clinical-identified cae cases mr per-formance, and summarized the mrs and swi performance of cae. results: the 10 cases of cae all had the history of primary hae, among who 6 c...

background:  nowadays mri examinations have been widely used in clinical applications for many diagnoses. the use of contrast agent in mri improves lesion detection and characterization and causes more accurate diagnosis.  objectives: the aim of this study was comparing to optimal dose of magnevist contrast agent in modified t1w se (spin echo), t1w fse (fast spin echo) and t1w gre (gradient ech...

conclusion adc, fa, and t2* values may quantitatively reflect the microstructural characteristics of np, therefore they could be used to detect the minimal changes of early ldd. results the adc, fa, and t2* values were different (p < 0.05) among different rois within the same disc or among corresponding rois in different level discs. while the average values of adc increased regularly with the ...

the purpose of this study was to investigate magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of the normal feline eyeand optic nerves using t1-weighted and t2-weighted images. a total of 6 healthy female domestic short haircats age 2-2.5 years and weighing 3.2 ± 0.4 kg were selected. magnetic resonance imaging data werecollected using gemsow (philips) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 t. dorsal, sagittal, a...

rhabdomyosarcoma is a common primary childhood malignancy that rarely metastasizes to the breast. we report a patient with a primary sinonasal rhabdomyosarcoma metastasizing to the breast, with no distant spread. we describe the imaging appearance of rhabdomyosarcoma on magnetic resonance imaging (mri), particularly on diffusion-weighted imaging (dwi) and apparent diffusion coefficient (adc) se...

purpose: suitable magnetic resonance imaging (mri) techniques from conventional to new devices can help physicians in diagnosis and follow up of multiple sclerosis (ms) patients. the aim of present research was to compare effectiveness of fluid attenuation inversion recovery (flair) sequence of conventional mri and diffuse weighted imaging (dwi) sequence as a new technique in detection of brain...
