Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of the temporal bone

Neuroradiology, 2010
This paper summarizes the value of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of temporal bone pathology. It highlights the use of different types of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in the different types of cholesteatoma, prior to first stage surgery and prior to second look surgery.

Whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging

European Journal of Radiology, 2009
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) provides information on the diffusivity of water molecules in the human body. Technological advances and the development of the concept of diffusion-weighted whole-body imaging with background body signal suppression (DWIBS) have opened the path for routine clinical whole-body DWI.

Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Journal of Neuro-Ophthalmology, 2002
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging is a specialized technique that measures the degree of diffusion of water molecules within extracellular space and between intracellular and extracellular space. Diffusion-weighted imaging signal is high (bright) when diffusion is restricted, as occurs in cytotoxic damage from ischemia, inflammation, trauma,

Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging in stroke

European Journal of Radiology, 2003
Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging has evolved from an esoteric laboratory experiment to a critical aspect of routine clinical care of the patient presenting with symptoms suspicious of acute ischemic stroke. The purpose of this article is to review the basis of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), to consider its application in acute stroke ...

Magnetic resonance imaging and diffusion‐weighted imaging in methylmalonic acidemia

Acta Radiologica, 2005
Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is an inborn disorder of amino acid metabolism, often presenting with neurological symptoms. We present the results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) of the brain in a 16‐month‐old male patient with classic neurological and laboratory findings for MMA.

Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging

1997
Contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is generated by exploiting a variety of physicochemical properties. Conventional clinical MRI techniques are largely based upon disease-induced changes in water relaxation, but these have been complemented by a number of other approaches, including a sensitization to the diffusion of water. It has been shown

Diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Pituitary Abscess

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 2006
Pituitary abscess is a rare but potentially life-threatening disease. The correct preoperative diagnosis of pituitary abscess is difficult and rarely made. We present a case of pituitary abscess where diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging was useful in making the preoperative diagnosis of pituitary abscess.

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in colorectal cancer

Journal of Visceral Surgery, 2016
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays now a major role in patients with colorectal cancer regarding tumor staging, surgical planning, therapeutic decision, assessment of tumor response to chemoradiotherapy and surveillance of rectal cancer, and detection and characterization of liver or peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancers.
