rhabdomyosarcoma metastasis to the breast: appearance on diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient sequences
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...
متن کاملRole of Apparent diffusion coefficient value in Diffusion Weighted imaging of MRI to assessment of radiotherapy efficiency in the patient with glioma tumor during treatment
Introduction: Glioma is the most common primary malignancy of cerebral neoplasms in adults, which in spite of therapeutic significant efforts, has a very poor prognosis. The current standard treatment of these patients generally includes surgery and radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy with 6 courses of adjuvant use of temozolomide tabs. During these years, the nervous...
متن کاملpreoperative grading of astrocytic supratentorial brain tumors with diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient
background diffusion-weighted imaging (dwi) is a form of magnetic resonance imaging (mri) based on measuring the random brownian motion of water molecules within the biological tissues and is particularly useful in tumor characterization. objectives the purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of dw mri and the apparent diffusion coefficient (adc) for preoperative grading of a...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted imaging in the head and neck region: usefulness of apparent diffusion coefficient values for characterization of lesions.
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate the role of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values calculated from diffusion-weighted imaging for head and neck lesion characterization in daily routine, in comparison with histopathological results. METHODS Ninety consecutive patients who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at a university hospital for diagnosis of neck lesions were included in this p...
متن کاملUsefulness of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient of Diffusion-Weighted Imaging for Differential Diagnosis of Primary Solid and Cystic Renal Masses
BACKGROUND To evaluate the value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for distinguishing between benign and malignant renal masses. MATERIAL/METHODS Seventy-five patients with 75 unilateral renal lesions were included, and 75 normal contralateral kidneys served as controls. The lesions were categorized into four groups as malignant cystic, malignant solid, benign cystic and benign solid. The a...
