Methods The prospective diagnosis and resectability of 17 patients with suspicious pancreato-biliary tumors were evaluated. Surgical findings and pathologic results confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma in 11 cases, cholangiocarcinoma in 4, and non-neoplastic lesion in 2. MR multi-imaging protocol, including MR cross-sectional imaging, us cholangiopancreatography (MRCP ), and three-dimensional dynamic contrast-enhanced MR portography (3D DCE MRP), were performed in all patients. Results MR multi-imaging technique allowed-correct diagnosing 15 of 17 (88. 2% ) patients with pancreato-biliary tumors. The accuracy in detecting the range of tumor invasion was 64. 4%. The sensitivity, speificity, accuracy, positive, and negative predictive value of MR multi-imaging technique in assessing the resectability of pancreato-biliary tumors were 83. 3%, 77. 8%, 80. 0%, 71. 4%, and 87. 5%, respectively. Conclusion MR multi-imaging technique can not only improve the diagnostic ability of pancreato-biliary tumor, but also assess the surgical reartability of the tumor. With the fast development of MR techniques, the diagnosing and pre-operative assessment of aoncreato-biliary tumor may be more simplified and efficient by using the non-invasive "all-in-one" method.展开更多
目的:比较全身弥散加权成像(WB-DWI)、同位素骨扫描(radionuclide bone scan)技术在乳腺癌骨转移的应用价值。方法:40例经病理证实为乳腺癌的患者分别作WB-DWI及同位素骨扫描检查。WB-DWI检查使用反转恢复平面回波弥散序列行全身扫描,...目的:比较全身弥散加权成像(WB-DWI)、同位素骨扫描(radionuclide bone scan)技术在乳腺癌骨转移的应用价值。方法:40例经病理证实为乳腺癌的患者分别作WB-DWI及同位素骨扫描检查。WB-DWI检查使用反转恢复平面回波弥散序列行全身扫描,将骨骼系统分为3个区域,分别记录每个患者各区域WB-DWI阳性病例数。对所有WB-DWI及同位素骨扫描影像表现的乳腺癌转移例数及发生部位行统计学比较。结果:WB-DWI阳性病例为35例,共检出病灶数为146个;同位素骨扫描阳性病例为30例,共检出病灶数为141个,WB-DWI的病灶检出率高于同位素骨扫描;WB-DWI与同位素骨扫描诊断乳腺癌骨转移例数及发生部位无统计学差异。结论:WB-DWI检查无辐射,覆盖范围大,具有较高的敏感性,对乳腺癌骨转移早期筛查、诊断及预后评价方面具有重要的临床应用价值。展开更多
