The MR findings in six cases of paranasal sinus mucoceles are described. Two basic MR appearances were encountered: either moderate to marked signal hypointensity in the expanded sinuses on T1- and T2-weighted images (four patients) or moderate to marked signal hyperintensity on T1- and T2-weighted images (two patients). These patterns appear to represent inspissated or hydrated sinus contents, respectively. CT correlation revealed hyperdense mucoceles in the decreased MR signal group and hypo- or isodense mucoceles in the increased MR signal group. Superimposed allergic Aspergillus sinusitis was also present in two patients with hypointense mucoceles on MR. 相似文献

PURPOSETo analyze the MR characteristics of a series of patients with esthesioneuroblastoma and discuss the typical surgery and its postoperative MR appearance.METHODSThe MR studies of 15 patients with the pathologic diagnosis of esthesioneuroblastoma (also known as olfactory neuroblastoma) were retrospectively reviewed and correlated with CT and surgical findings. The postoperative MR studies of 10 patients who underwent craniofacial resection were also reviewed.RESULTSIn all cases the tumors arose in the superior nasal cavity and extended into the ethmoid cells. In some instances the tumors extended into the other paranasal sinuses, orbits, anterior cranial fossa, and cavernous sinus. The tumors were typically expansile and destructive in their growth patterns. Compared with brain gray matter, the tumors were hypointense on T1-weighted images and isointense to hyperintense on T2-weighted images. Nine tumors were heterogeneous and 6 were homogeneous. Contrast enhancement ranged from mild to marked. MR was useful for characterizing the various tissues and distinguishing fluid in the postoperative nasal cavity.CONCLUSIONSEsthesioneuroblastoma, although an uncommon tumor, may be suspected in lesions of the superior nasal cavity demonstrating both expansile and destructive growth properties. The MR findings are otherwise nonspecific. MR is the imaging modality of choice for depicting local tumor extension and evaluating for recurrence after craniofacial resection. 相似文献

Aspergillosis is the most common fungal infection of the paranasal sinuses, and needs to be recognized because it requires surgical removal. Twenty proven cases of aspergillosis of the paranasal sinuses are reported here. CT was performed in all the cases and MRI in 2 cases. The maxillary sinus was affected in 19 patients and the sphenoid sinus in 1. Mycosis was unilateral in all but 1 of the cases. Foci of increased attenuation at CT were observed in 18 cases, with calcification in 10 cases and/or dental material in 13 cases. An increased bony wall thickness was observed in 16 cases. All the patients but 1 had at least one of the signs. At MRI the fungal mass displayed a hypointense signal on T1- and T2-weighted images. No enhancement was noted on post-contrast T1-weighted images. The diagnosis of paranasal sinus aspergillosis is suggested by the CT findings, when a hyperdense mass with calcifications and/or dental material is noted with thickening of the sinus wall. MRI may have a complementary diagnostic role in doubtful cases.

Five cases of pathologically proved psammomatoid ossifying fibromas of the sinonasal area are presented. All five cases were examined by CT and in three cases MR imaging was performed before and after injection of gadopentetate dimeglumine. The lesions were located in the sphenoethmoidal area and extended over the nasal cavity or orbit in four cases. In one case, the lesion occurred at the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone with preservation of the ethmoidal sinus. On CT, all the lesions were expansile and circumscribed by a thick bony wall. Internal septations of bone density (four cases) or enhancing soft-tissue density (one case) were seen and internal content was low in density in all but one from which blood was aspirated. On MR, the bony walls were isointense with gray matter on T1-weighted images and were seen as areas of low intensity on T2-weighted images. The lesions significantly enhanced after injection of contrast material. A well-circumscribed multiloculated expansile mass with a thick wall of bone density on CT scans and enhancement of this area on postcontrast MR images is strongly suggestive of psammomatoid ossifying fibroma. 相似文献

Summary Sixteen cases of cerebral venous angiomas, seven cerebellar and nine supratentorial were imaged by magnetic resonance, using a T1 sequence and a motion compensated T2 sequence. The transcerebral draining vein of the lesion could be identified in thirteen out of sixteen patients. On T1-weighted images all the lesions were hypointense. On T2-weighted images, five lesions were hypointense, and eleven were hyperintense consistent with slow flow. In three cases the lesion was hemorrhagic. Three lesions with hypointense aspect on T1 and hyperintense aspect on T2-weighted images were only seen in retrospect, due to partial volume averaging in two and concomitant chronic hemorrhage in one. Before contrast, the peripheral dilated medullary veins could only be identified in five cases. On T2-weighted images, in three of these lesions the signal was higher than in the draining veins, pointing to a slower flow. After intravenous administration of Gadolinium, performed in twelve patients, the main transcerebral draining vein as well as the peripheral medullary veins could be well identified in all patients. 相似文献

Purpose: To determine the frequency of hypointense appearance of dural sinus thrombosis on T2-weighted images, which may mimic a normal flow void, and when possible correlate with appearance on T1-weighted images. Methods and Materials: Retrospective review of radiology files showed 51 patients with a discharge diagnosis of dural sinus thrombosis who underwent MR imaging during the period 1986-1998. These images were reviewed by an experienced neuroradiologist for appearance on T2-weighted images. This process yielded five cases in which a hypointense appearance on this pulse sequence simulated a normal flow void. An additional two cases were added from the teaching files of two other institutions giving a total of seven cases (13% of studies). The resulting study population consisted of five women and two men (mean age 27.1 years). T1 weighted images were available in five patients. In two patients MR venography was available, but not T1-weighted images. The diagnosis of dural sinus thrombosis was based solely on absence of flow void on T1-weighted images in one case, solely on absence of flow void on MR venography in two cases and absence of flow void on T1-weighted images in conjunction with MR venography or gradient echo findings in 4 patients. All images were obtained on a 1.5 T magnet (GE Medical Systems; Milwaukee, Wisconsin). Results: In all patients hypointense signal of thrombus was isointense with normal flow voids in other dural sinuses on T2-weighted images. In all cases in which T1-weighted images were available, the signal intensity of thrombus was isointense to gray matter. Conclusion: Hypointense appearance of thrombus on T2-weighted images is a potential pitfall in the MR diagnosis of dural sinus thrombosis. Because thrombus in this stage of evolution appears isointense to gray matter on T1-weighted images, careful attention must be paid to other sequences to avoid this pitfall. 相似文献

Magnetic resonance (MR) characteristics of metastatic brain tumors (MBTs) were studied using 15 cases (13 males and 2 females whose ages ranged from 32–78 yr, with the mean age of 57.8 yr;12 adenocarcinomas, 2 squamous-cell carcinomas, 2 large-cell carcinomas). Nine cases showed hypointensities and five showed isointensities on T1-weighted images. Six cases showed markedly hypo- or hypointensities, two showed isointensities, and six showed markedly hyper- or hyperintensities on T2-weighted images. One case was markedly hyperintense on both T1- and T2-weighted images. The decrease of the signal intensity on the T2-weighted image was the main MR characteristic. A hypointense peritumoral rim was seen in four of the six hyperintense tumors on T2-weighted images. There was no correlation between the signal intensity and the histological classification. 相似文献

Thirty-seven patients with 48 lesions of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) underwent preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) examination and surgical resection. Sixteen lesions were imaged at 0.5 T with T1- and T2-weighted spin-echo sequences; 32 lesions were imaged at 2 T with T1-and T2-weighted spin-echo and gradient-recalled-echo sequences. Contrast material-enhanced MR imaging was performed in 20 lesions. MR imaging failed to depict six tumors that were less than 3 cm in diameter. Typical appearance was present in 18 of the 42 (43%) lesions seen at MR. Atypical lesion features included no scar (n = 15), hypointense scar on T2-weighted images (n = 7), pseudocapsule (n = 6), strong hyperintense lesion on T2-weighted images (n = 3), diffuse hyperintensity on T1-weighted images (n = 3), and heterogeneous lesion (n = 1). Comparison between findings at MR imaging and at histopathologic examination was performed in 38 lesions: There was good correlation between presence and size of the scar on both examinations. In 13 of 20 (65%) of the hyperintense scars on T2-weighted images, edema was prominent, whereas in five of the seven (71%) hypointense scars on T2-weighted images, edema was absent or low. 相似文献

MR images of 28 patients with 35 lesions of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia were reviewed to determine the frequency of findings considered typical of this condition (isointensity on T1- and T2-weighted pulse sequences, a central hyperintense scar on T2-weighted images, and homogeneous signal intensity). Fifteen lesions were imaged at 0.6 T with T1- and T2-weighted spin-echo (SE) pulse sequences; 20 lesions were imaged at 1.5 T with T1-weighted SE and gradient-echo pulse sequences and T2-weighted SE pulse sequences. Diagnosis of focal nodular hyperplasia was made pathologically in 25 patients, with nuclear scintigraphy in four, and with follow-up imaging in six. Only seven lesions (20%) were isointense relative to normal liver on both T1- and T2-weighted images. On T1-weighted SE images, 21 lesions (60%) were isointense relative to normal liver, 12 (34%) were hypointense, and two (6%) were hyperintense. On T2-weighted SE images, 12 lesions (34%) were isointense and 23 (66%) were hyperintense relative to normal liver. A central scar was present in 17 lesions (49%) and was hypointense relative to the lesion on T1-weighted images and hyperintense on T2-weighted images. Twenty lesions (57%) were of homogeneous signal intensity throughout the lesion, except for the presence of a central scar. All three MR imaging characteristics were present in three cases (9%). We conclude that hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia has a wide range of signal intensity on MR imaging. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The goal of our study was to assess the prevalence of pseudolesion in segment IV of the liver on MRI in patients with and without liver cirrhosis. METHOD: Patients were divided into three groups: 10 patients with angiographically confirmed aberrant gastric venous drainage and liver cirrhosis (Group 1), 250 consecutively selected patients with liver cirrhosis (Group 2), and 250 with normal liver (Group 3). The signal intensity of pseudolesion in segment IV on T1- and T2-weighted MRI in the 510 patients was analyzed. RESULTS: In Group 1, five pseudolesions were visible and hyperintense on T1-weighted images. On T2-weighted images, four were visible and hypointense. In Group 2, 11 were seen (4.4%). All were hyperintense on T1-weighted images. Five were hypointense on T2-weighted images. In Group 3, one pseudolesion was seen (0.4%). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of pseudolesion in segment IV on MRI is higher in liver cirrhosis than in normal liver. The lesion is hyperintense on T1-weighted images when visible. 相似文献

Six patients with chronically obstructed sinuses were examined with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging prior to surgical decompression. In all six patients, hypointense signal was present on all MR sequences despite CT evidence of the presence of high-attenuation material filling the sinus. At surgery, all specimens were viscid or pastelike with no evidence of hemorrhagic products as a cause for the MR findings. Sinonasal secretions may have a spectrum of MR signal intensity, ranging from hyperintense to signal void with all pulse sequences. These findings must be kept in mind when interpreting images of patients with suspected chronic sinusitis. 相似文献

A hypertensive patient was examined by CT and magnetic resonance (0.5 T) within 3 h from stroke onset. Computed tomography revealed a thalamocapsular hemorrhage. Hematoma was isointense to the white matter on T1-weighted and hyperintense on T2-weighted spin echo images. The T2-weighted gradient echo images showed a mixture of hypointense and hyperintense signal. This latter aspect has not previously been reported and is probably related to abundant intracellular deoxyhemoglobin in clotted areas rich in red blood cells. 相似文献

Curvilinear T1 hyperintense lesions in the cerebral cortex in patients with subacute infarction were investigated for: (1) the presence or absence of T2* hypointensity and (2) correlations with neuropathologic findings. Thirty-six consecutive patients with subacute to chronic embolic infarction, in whom curvilinear hyperintense lesions in the infarcted cortex were seen on T1-weighted images, underwent echo-planar gradient-echo (GRE-EPI) T2*-weighted imaging. GRE-EPI T2*-weighted imaging revealed no evidence of hemorrhage within the curvilinear T1 hyperintense lesions of the cerebral cortex in all of the patients. In 11 of the 36 patients, focal hypointense lesions were seen in the depth of infarcted gyri on GRE-EPI T2*-weighted images. In the remaining 25 patients, no T2* hypointensities were seen in the infarct zone. Pathological correlation was performed in a patient with middle cerebral artery infarction and curvilinear hyperintense lesions on postmortem T1-weighted images. In the autopsied brain, curvilinear T1 hyperintense lesions corresponded to necrosis of all the cortical layers on histological examination. These data suggest that curvilinear hyperintense lesions in the cerebral cortex on T1-weighted images during the subacute to chronic period of cerebral infarction may not represent hemorrhage. 相似文献

Rathke cleft cysts: CT, MR imaging, and pathologic features 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The authors retrospectively reviewed the clinical, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings in seven patients with pathologically proved Rathke cleft cysts. All the cysts were located in the anterior sella turcica or the anterior suprasellar cistern. Five cysts had both intra- and suprasellar components, one was entirely intrasellar, and the other was predominantly suprasellar in location. The size of the cysts ranged from 8 to 20 mm. CT scans demonstrated low-density homogeneous lesions in four cases. On MR images of three of these four cases, the cysts had the same intensity as cerebrospinal fluid on T1- and T2-weighted images, while in the fourth case, the cyst was hyperintense on the T1-weighted images. In the remaining three cases, CT showed slight hyperdensity relative to brain parenchyma, suggestive of contrast enhancement. MR showed signal heterogeneity of these lesions with focal components of diminished signal intensity of T2-weighted images. These same foci appeared iso- to slightly hyperintense on T1-weighted images. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Our purpose was to show the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features of vertex epidural hematomas (EDHs) and emphasize pitfalls in the diagnosis of this entity. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The neuroradiologic studies of four patients (CT in four, MR imaging and MR venography in one) were evaluated for EDH shape, size and appearance. RESULTS: EDHs were biconvex in three patients and crescentic in one patient. CT appearances included a collection that was hyperdense (two patients), generally isodense with a few regions of hyperdensity (one patient) and mixed hyperdense and hypodense (one patient). MR imaging findings in one patient consisted of hyperintense signal on T1-weighted images and hypointense signal on T2-weighted images. Inferior displacement of the superior sagittal sinus was seen in two patients. Diagnosis of a small vertex EDH was difficult on routine axial CT in one patient, but apparent on MR imaging and MR venography. CONCLUSIONS: Small vertex EDHs can be difficult to diagnose on routine CT. MR imaging or thin section CT should be performed to exclude the diagnosis in patients with trauma to the skull vertex. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A lingual abscess is difficult to diagnose in the absence of physical signs. MR imaging may provide an excellent and invaluable adjunct to clinical examination, but the literature is incomplete in defining the various MR imaging findings of abscess. The objective of this study was to determine the MR imaging features of tongue abscesses. METHODS: Seven surgically proved tongue abscesses were evaluated with MR imaging. Four patients underwent MR imaging because of suspected tumor, and 3 patients, to show the extent and precise anatomic location of the lesion. Lesions were assessed with regard to the location, size, signal-intensity characteristics, and pattern of contrast enhancement. RESULTS: Five lesions were located in the anterior tongue and 2, in the posterior tongue. The central parts of 4 anterior tongue abscesses were hypointense, surrounded by a hyperintense wall on T1-weighted precontrast images. On postcontrast images, marked wall enhancement was detected. On T2-weighted images, a markedly hyperintense central part surrounded by a hypointense rim was seen. In 2 of these patients, there was a hypointense halo surrounding the wall (target sign). In 3 patients, a perilesional hyperintense area that enhanced diffusely after contrast administration was detected on T2-weighted images. The smallest lesion located in the anterior tongue was hypointense on T1-weighted images and enhanced diffusely on postcontrast images. On T2-weighted images, a markedly hyperintense central part surrounded by a mildly hyperintense peripheral part was depicted. Posterior tongue lesions appeared as polypoid ill-defined masses and were hypointense on T1-weighted images and heterogeneously hyperintense on T2-weighted images. On postcontrast images, the lesion in 1 patient showed diffuse and heterogeneous contrast enhancement, whereas the lesion in another patient enhanced peripherally. The lesions were totally excised in 4 patients and drained with surgical incisions in 3 patients. No recurrence was detected on follow-up. CONCLUSION: An abscess typically presents as a cystic lesion surrounded by an enhancing capsule formation, but lesions may also present as solid masses that enhance diffusely or peripherally. 相似文献
