Relationship between choline and apparent diffusion coefficient in patients with gliomas.
PURPOSE To examine the relationship between apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) from diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and choline levels from proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) in newly diagnosed Grade II and IV gliomas within distinct anatomic regions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 37 patients with Grade II and 28 patients with Grade IV glioma were scanned on a 1.5T ...
متن کاملApparent diffusion coefficient in the evaluation of cerebral gliomas malignancy.
BACKGROUND/AIM Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a key modality not only for lesion diagnosis, but also to evaluate the extension, type and grade of the tumor. Advanced MRI techniques provide physiologic information that complements the anatomic information available from conventional MRI. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a correlation between apparent diffusion coeffic...
متن کاملRelationship between cognitive impairment and apparent diffusion coefficient values from magnetic resonance-diffusion weighted imaging in elderly hypertensive patients
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine a new method for the early diagnosis and assessment of mild cognitive impairment in elderly individuals with hypertension. Elderly hypertensive patients with cognitive impairment were assessed by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Clinical Dementia Rating Assessment (CDR). Cognitive results were compared to apparent diffusion coeff...
متن کاملAssociation between apparent diffusion coefficient and intervertebral disc degeneration in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.
PURPOSE To assess the relation between ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and degenerative disc disease emerging in association with various intrinsic and extrinsic factors and to evaluate the correlation between degree of degeneration in intervertebral discs and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values. METHODS Thirty-five patients with AS and a control group of 35 patients were included in the ...
متن کاملRelationship between Apparent Diffusion Coefficient and Tumour Cellularity in Lung Cancer
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To prospectively investigate the relationship between the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and cellularity in lung cancer. METHODS Sixty patients histopathologically confirmed with lung cancer (41 men, 19 women) underwent diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of the chest (with b values of 50 and 1000 s/mm2). The median mean ADC (ADC mean) value and median...
