Methods From December 2007 to October 2009, the MRI appearances of 11 cases on the plain scan and the enhanced MRI scan after injection of Gd-DTPA were reviewed and summarized. Results The cases of cerebral military tuberculosis usually had the history of military pulmonary tuberculosis, showed multiple lesions in fragments on plain scan, and the lesions distributed diffusely after enhancement, showed as ring form or nodosity. The size tended to be uniform, often 2 mm in diameter approximately. Tuberculosis meningitis and hydrocephalus could accompany. Conclusion The manifestation of plain MRI is not typical, and the enhancement MRI is imperative. Some characteristic appearances can be found after injection of Gd-DTPA, and these characteristic appearances could be helpful to differentiate with other multiple intracranial diseases.

【摘要】 目的 探討磁共振動態增強掃描及磁共振彌散加權成像(diffusion weighted imaging,DWI)對肝癌經導管動脈內化學栓塞(transcatheter arterial chemoembolization,TACE)治療后的腫瘤殘余及復發的判斷價值。 方法 2009年1月-2010年10月,對28例經證實的肝癌患者在TACE治療前、治療后3~7 d及治療后1~2個月、3~6個月行磁共振動態增強及DWI掃描,動態測量表觀彌散系數(apparent diffusion coefficient,ADC)值,與數字減影血管造影(digital substraction angiography,DSA)檢查對照,評價動態增強掃描及DWI對腫瘤殘留或復發的檢出能力。〖HTH〗結果 對腫瘤殘余及復發的顯示,動態增強掃描靈敏度為90.0%,特異度為96.9%;DWI靈敏度為96.7%,特異度為93.8%;動態增強掃描與DWI相結合的靈感度為100.0%,特異度為99.5%;DSA靈敏度和特異度分別為96.7%、100.0%。TACE治療前所有腫瘤實質的ADC值為(1.134±0.014)×10-3 mm2/s;TACE治療后3~7 d ADC值為(1.162±0.016)×10-3 mm2/s;TACE治療后1~2個月碘油沉積較好,無明顯殘余或復發病灶的ADC值為(1.175±0.015)×10-3 mm2/s,3~6個月后隨訪病灶ADC值為(1.179±0.017)×10-3 mm2/s;TACE治療后1~2個月碘油沉積不完全或無明顯沉積病灶ADC值為(1.147±0.016)×10-3 mm2/s,3~6個月后隨訪病灶實質平均ADC值(1.142±0.012)×10-3 mm2/s。 結論 將動脈增強掃描與DWI相結合可提高對TACE治療后肝癌殘余及復發判斷的靈敏度及特異度;對腫瘤組織平均 ADC值的動態測量、觀察可及早判斷腫瘤復發的可能性。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in judging the remnant and recurrence on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods Between January 2009 and October 2010, 28 patients with HCC underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI before and after TACE 3-7 days, 1-2 months and 3-6 months, respectively, and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of the tumor were also measured at above mentioned time points. The sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI in diagnosis of residual tumor and recurrent cancer was qualitatively evaluated by comparing with the DSA results. Results Compared with DSA, the sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI were 90.0% and 96.9% by revealing the remnant and recurrence of HCC, while the sensitivity and specificity of DWI were 96.7% and 93.8% respectively. Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI the sensitivity and specificity were improved to 100.0% and 99.5%, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor before and after 3-7 days of TACE were (1.134±0.014)×10-3 and (1.162±0.016)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor without and with remnant and recurrence after 1-2 months and 3-6 months follow up were (1.175±0.015)×10-3, and (1.179±0.017)×10-3 mm2/s; (1.147±0.016)×10-3 and (1.142±0.012)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. Conclusions Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI could improve the sensitivity and specificity to detect the remnant and recurrence of HCC after TACE. Measuring the ADC value during follow up of HCC patients after TACE could predict the probability of tumor recurrence.
ObjectiveTo discuss the value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in the diagnosis of placenta increta. MethodsThe clinical data of 42 patients with placenta increta admitted to Sichuan Provincial Hospital for Women and Children between May 2012 and January 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were examined by prenatal magnetic resonance scans and DWI scans for subsequent comparison between ADC of the local convex placental region and ADC of the normal placental region and between the results of the two imaging methods. ResultsADC of the implantation area was significantly different from that of the normal placenta, so it could be used as a quantitative index. DWI had a higher sensitivity of diagnosis than conventional MRI. ConclusionCompared with conventional magnetic resonance imaging, DWI is more valuable in the clinical diagnosis of placenta increta, which provides a reliable basis for clinical treatment.
Objective To explore the MRI features of juvenile-onset ankylosing spondylitis (JoAS) for improving the level of diagnosis and therapy. Methods MRI findings of JoAS in 25 patients confirmed by clinical and laboratory results between October 2010 and September 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Results There were a total of 67 locations of lesion in the 25 cases, including 19 in sacroiliac joint, 21 in hip joint, 6 in ischial tuberosity, 6 in crista iliaca, 9 in knee joint, 4 in ankle joint, and 2 in foot. MRI showed 63 locations with bone marrow edema, 36 with joint effusion, 26 with bone destruction, and 19 with enthesitis. Conclusions Bone marrow edema is the most common MRI manifestation of JoAS, and the main bone destruction is middle axis joint. MRI is sensitive but not specific to lesions, so differential diagnosis is needed and helpful.
