MRIOBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to describe our approach to contrast-enhanced abdominal MRI in patients with nontraumatic abdominal pain and suspected appendicitis. We aim to share our experience on the advantages, pearls, and pitfalls of MRI in this clinical setting, in comparison ...
especially to characterize focal liver lesions and to assess the response to percutaneous treatment. However, the expanding abdominal indications of contrast-enhanced ultrasound make this technique an important tool in the assessment of
Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is the gold standard for imaging patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Applications of MRI in MS were first investigated in the early 1980s, where the technique demonstrated superior ability to detect lesions in the brain and spinal cord compared with CT...
The purpose was to compare contrast-enhanced PET/CT (cePET/CT) and non contrast-enhanced PET/MRI (PET/MRI) concerning diagnostic accuracy in evaluation of abdominal lesions. METHOD AND MATERIALS 21 patients (mean age 59.5 years, range 35 to 78 years, 11 female, 10 male) with suspected ...
These non-contrast chest CT scans of PDAC and non-PDAC were acquired 4 days (range, −20 to 191 days) before the contrast-enhanced abdominal CT diagnosis, and most of them were acquired during the COVID-19 pandemic for prevention purposes in this tertiary hospital. We ensured that ...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the capability of contrast-enhanced breath-hold fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) three-dimensional MR angiography (MRA) to detect stenotic lesions of the abdominal aorta, the renal arteries, and the iliac arteries by using a k-space-cen...

Contrast-enhanced MRA is particularly useful for the evaluation of claudication. For hip and buttock claudication, a single acquisition through the abdominal aorta-including the iliac vessels in the pelvis-may be sufficient to detect iliac stenosis (Figure 4). 13 For leg claudication, 3 stations ar...
