Role of novel magnetic resonance imaging sequences in characterization of ovarian masses
Introduction: Differentiating a benign from a malignant adnexal mass would provide a basis for optimal preoperative planning and may also reduce the number of unnecessary laparotomies patients undergoing treatment for benign disease.

Advanced MRI features of intraventricular inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor: a case report
Background Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare central nervous system (CNS) tumor. We first report a rare case of IMT in the lateral ventricle and describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of the tumor with an emphasis on the ...

Role of diffusion-weighted MR imaging in discrimination between the intracranial cystic masses
Objective: Discriminating pyogenic brain abscesses from cystic or necrotic tumors is sometimes difficult with CT or conventional MR imaging. Diffusion MR imaging is a valuable diagnostic test in cases of intracranial cystic masses. Methods: This work was

A method for improving the performance of gradient systems for diffusion-weighted MRI
The MR signal is sensitive to diffusion. This effect can be increased by the use of large, balanced bipolar gradients. The gradient systems of MR scanners are calibrated at installation and during regular servicing visits.

Diffusion-Weighted MRI for Lymphoma Restaging—Letter [PDF]
We read with interest the recent article by Mayerhoefer and colleagues ([1][1]). Their prospective study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI-MRI), a potential radiation-free alternative to FDG-PET/CT, for pretreatment staging in 140 patients with various ...
