Gd-DTPA in MR of spinal lesions.
The use of Gd-DTPA in nondegenerative spinal lesions is described. Thirty consecutive patients were examined by MR with and without Gd-DTPA. The information obtained with unenhanced T1- and T2-weighted spin-echo images was compared with that obtained with Gd-DTPA T1-weighted images. The results showed that, according to the criteria used, more information was present on the MR images with Gd-DT...
متن کاملCan Gd-DTPA MR Renography Could be a One Stop Imaging Technique for Assessment of Human Renal Allograft Complications?
Introduction: MRI technique with fast pulse sequences and renal eliminated contrast agent has the capability of combining both anatomic and functional information; having advantages over both computed tomography and nuclear scintigraphy for assessing renal function, because it combines high spatial resolution with information on perfusion and function. Aim of Work: Evaluate the role of MR Renog...
متن کاملGd-DTPA enhancement in MR imaging of central pontine myelinolysis.
A 37-year-old man with a history of alcohol abuse was admitted for evaluation of agitation , incoordination , and confusion . Initial screening laboratory examination revealed a serum sodium of 96 mEqfl , blood urea nitrogen of 4 mgjdl , and creatinine of 0.7 mgjdl. The patient 's severe hyponatremia was corrected with IV fluids including 5% dextrose in normal saline. Serum sodium levels were n...
متن کاملGd-DTPA-enhanced MR imaging of cochlear schwannoma.
The majority of eighth cranial nerve tumors are acoustic schwannomas, with greater than 90% arising from the vestibular division within the internal auditory canal. Most originate near the porus acusticus at the gliai-Schwann cell interface. The minority of vestibular schwannomas arise at other locations along the nerve, such as within the vestibule or at the fundus of the internal auditory can...
متن کاملGd-DTPA-enhanced MR of suspected spinal multiple sclerosis.
A prospective study was undertaken to evaluate the potential of Gd-DTPA-enhanced MR to differentiate active from inactive demyelinating lesions of the cervical spinal cord. Five patients with elongated high-signal-intensity lesions in the cervical cord on long TR/TE spin-echo MR images and a clinical suspicion of demyelinating disease had MR before and after IV Gd-DTPA. Delayed contrast enhance...
