The method applied is three-dimensional (3D) volume rendering starting from structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies of selected brain regions (basal ganglia e lateral ventricles). The analysis revealed a significant main effect of age, gender and craniometric index. Regarding gender ...
water diffusion in great detail. DTI has been extensively used to study the microstructural architecture of normal and diseased brain. With the improvement in this technique in recent years, DTI is now applied to other areas of the body, such as skeletal muscles, prostate, breast, and kidney ...
The neuroimaging tests performed on all patients were as follows: (1) head MRI (Phillips’ Ingenia 3.0 Tesla), including 3D volume T1-weighted, T2-weighted, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, and susceptibility-weighted imaging sequences; (2) CBF SPECT, which was done 10 min after intravenous...
Objective: To compare the parameters of stretched-exponential and monoexponential models of diffusionweighted imaging(DWI) between prostate cancer and normal tissues. Methods: Twenty-five patients with peripheral zone prostate cancer underwent DWI exam using b-values of 0, 500, 1 000, and 2 000 s...

In addition to essential roles as mediators of cell proliferation and differentiation in development, increased levels and activation of EGFR(HER-1) or HER-2(neu/ErbB2) have been reported in several human malignancies including those of the breast, pancreas, lung, head and neck, colon, prostate...
MRI to differentiate benign from malignant soft-tissue tumours of the extremities: A simplified systematic imaging approach using depth, size and heterogen... Differentiating between malignant and benign lesions on the basis of MR images depends on the experience of the radiologist. For non-experts,...
Similar to CT, MRI also has limitations in the differentiation of fibrotic scar from local recurrence. Although there is increasing use of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR, it is not clear yet whether it is superior to PET in the detection of recurrence. Contrast-enhanced liver MRI and whole-body...
Both reported potentially concerning features on the first clinic visit (weight loss and previous prostate cancer, respectively) but had normal chest X-rays. Presumptive diagnoses made (n = 266) ( Table 1) Of the 31 patients with UCC, 23 (74.2%) were female and the median age was 56 ...
