background and aims. although salivary gland tumors are not very common, early diagnosis and treatment is crucial because of their proximity to vital organs, and therefore, determining the efficacy of new imaging procedures becomes important. this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and color doppler ultrasonography parameters in the diagnosis and differenti...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background: thalassemia is an inherited disorder in which repeated blood transfusion is needed. this causes accumulation of iron in various organs. silymarin is a natural medicinal plant that has been used for centuries in the treatment of liver depositions. in this study, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of liver, which h...

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...

background: according to recent studies comparing magnetic resonance enterography (mre) with ileocolonoscopy for assessing inflammation of small bowel and colonic segments in adults with active crohn’s disease (cd), we aimed to compare the accuracy of these two diagnostic methods in iranian population. method: during 2013-2014 a follow-up study was done on 30 patients with active cd ina gastroe...

introduction radiofrequency planar microcoils are used to increase the resolution of magnetic resonance images of small samples. in this study, we aimed to design and fabricate a spiral planar microcoil constructed on a double-sided printed circuit board (pcb). it has four rings with an internal diameter of 241 microns tuned and matched at 63.8 mhz. materials and methods to achieve the maximum ...

hypothalamic hamartoma (hh) is a rare intracranial lesion that usually presents with classic triad of central precocious puberty, gelastic epilepsy, and developmental delay. herein, a 14-year old boy is presented in whom the diagnosis of hh was made by magnetic resonance imaging. while he did not have any complain of precocious puberty, he surprisingly suffered from delay in puberty. the defini...

considering the nonlinear hyperelastic or viscoelastic nature of soft tissues has an important effect on modeling results. in medicalapplications, accounting nonlinearity begets an ill posed problem, due to absence of external force. myocardium can be consideredas a hyperelastic material, and variational approaches are proposed to estimate stiffness matrix, which take into account the linearand...
