Madelung disease: MR findings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two cases of Madelung disease (benign symmetrical lipomatosis) are presented. The MR findings in this striking condition are demonstrated. Short-repetition-time/short-echo time sequences nicely show the relationship of the cervical lipomatous accumulations to the airway and major neurovascular structures in the carotid spaces. Fat-suppression techniques add no additional information in the radiologic evaluation of these patients.

متن کاملThe Madelung Function of Elpasolites
For binary ionic compounds the Madelung energy can be calculated using the Madelung constant, the ionic charges and the next neighbour distance of the ions only. For ternary and higher systems the well-known standard formula cannot be applied, because the ionic charges and distances combine in different ways. In the present work we calculate the Madelung energy of the quaternary elpasolite stru...

متن کاملReview article SHOX haploinsuYciency and overdosage: impact of gonadal function status
Since its discovery in 1997, knowledge about the SHOX gene has rapidly increased. In this review, we summarise clinical features and diagnostic and therapeutic implications in SHOX haploinsuYciency and overdosage. SHOX haploinsuYciency usually results in mesomelic short stature and Turner skeletal features, including Madelung deformity with puberty, in subjects with normal gonadal function. Thu...
