The purpose of this study was to elucidate the roles of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), conventional US, CT, and MRI in
differential diagnosis of gallbladder wall thickening. We scrutinized images for the presence of the multiple-layer patterns
of the thickened gallbladder walls during preoperative images (EUS, n = 22; US, n = 23; CT, n = 20; MRI, n = 15) and retrospectively correlated them with surgical results in 25 patients. The pathological diagnoses included 7 gallbladder
cancers, 9 cases of chronic cholecystitis, 5 cases of xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis, and 4 cases of adenomyomatosis. Multiple-layer
patterns of gallbladder wall were observed in patients with inflammatory and benign diseases by US, EUS, CT, and MRI. This
pattern was demonstrated by EUS more efficiently compared with other means of imaging. All subjects with loss of multiple
layers were finally diagnosed by use of EUS as having gallbladder cancer at surgery. Loss of multiple-layer patterns of the
gallbladder wall demonstrated by EUS was the most specific finding in diagnosing gallbladder cancer.

Objective
To study the CT and MR features of xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC).Materials and methods
49 patients had pathologically confirmed XGC. All patients underwent contrast enhanced CT, and 10 patients had additional plain MRI. The CT and MRI results were retrospectively analyzed.Results
On CT, all patients had thickening of gallbladder wall, with 87.8% cases showed diffuse thickening. 85.7% cases had intramural hypo-attenuated nodules in the thickened wall. Continuous mucosal line and luminal surface enhancement were noted in 79.6% and 85.7% cases, respectively. Gallbladder stones were seen in 69.4% patients. The coexistence of the above 5 CT features was seen in 40% cases, and 80% cases had the coexistence of ≥4 features. Diffused gallbladder wall thickening in XGC is more likely to have disrupted mucosal line, and XGC with disrupted mucosal line is more likely to be associated with liver infiltration. In 60% patients the inflammatory process extended beyond gallbladder, with the interface between gallbladder and liver and/or the surrounding fat blurred. 40% cases had an early enhancement of liver parenchyma. Infiltration to other surrounding tissues included bowel (n = 3), stomach (n = 2), and abdominal wall (n = 1). On MR images, 7 of 9 intramural nodules in 7 subjects with T1-weighted dual echo MR images showed higher signal intensity on in-phase images than out-of-phase images.Conclusion
Coexisting of diffuse gallbladder wall thickening, hypo-attenuated intramural nodules, continuous mucosal line, luminal surface enhancement, and gallbladder stone highly suggest XGC. XGC frequently infiltrate liver and surrounding fat. Chemical-shift MRI helps classifying intramural nodules in the gallbladder wall. 相似文献4.
Computed tomography of 13 patients with villous rectal tumors was reviewed. Five tumors were benign, eight were malignant. All five benign lesions demonstrated homogeneous focal colonic wall thickening of less than 2 cm. Seven of the eight malignant lesions demonstrated focal colonic wall thickening greater than 2 cm. "Fronds," characterized by contrast within the interstices of the lesion, were seen in three malignant lesions. In the remaining five malignant lesions, three had a polypoid appearance, one had low attenuation regions, and one had focal rectal wall thickening. Computed tomography upstaged two carcinomas, downstaged two carcinomas, and accurately staged four carcinomas. Our experience shows (a) CT can demonstrate the classic fronds of villous tumors; (b) benign villous tumors tend to be less than 2 cm and are nonspecific in appearance; (c) biopsy is necessary to differentiate small malignant lesions from benign lesions; and (d) CT is inaccurate in staging local invasion of malignant villous tumors. 相似文献

PurposeWe aimed to investigate the role of interfaces of exophytic solid and cystic renal masses on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the added value of diffusion-weighted imaging in differentiating benign from malignant lesions.MethodsThe Institutional Review Board approved this retrospective study, and informed consent was waived. A total of 265 patients (109 [41%] women and 156 [59%] men) with a mean age of 57 ± 12 (standard deviation) years were enrolled in this study. Preoperative MRI (n = 238) examinations of patients with solid or cystic renal masses and MRI (n = 27) examinations of patients with Bosniak IIF cysts without progression were reviewed. Solid/cystic pattern, interface types and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were recorded by 2 radiologists. The diagnostic performance of combining normalized ADC values with interface sign were evaluated.ResultsAmong 265 renal lesions (109 cystic and 156 solid), all malignant lesions (n = 192) had a round interface. No malignant lesions showed an angular interface. For prediction of benignity in cystic lesions, sensitivity (82.86% vs 56.16%), negative predictive value (92.50% vs 85.71%), and accuracy (94.50% vs 87.92%) ratios of angular interface were higher compared to all (solid plus cystic) lesions. The best normalized ADC cutoff values for predicting malignancy in lesions with round interface were as follows: for all (solid plus cystic), ≤ 0.75 (AUROC = 0.804); solid, ≤ 0.6 (AUROC = 0.819); and cystic, ≤ 0.8 (AUROC = 0.936).ConclusionsAngular interface can be a predictor of benignity for especially cystic renal masses. The evaluation of interface type with normalized ADC value can be an important clue in differential diagnosis especially in patients avoiding contrast. 相似文献

Manganese (II) N, N'-dipyridoxylethylenediamine-N, N'-diacetate 5,5′-bis(phosphate) (DPDP) is a paramagnetic magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agent that enhances the liver and is predominantly excreted through the biliary tree. The authors evaluated its utility in diffuse liver disease by assessing liver and gallbladder enhancement in 24 rabbits. Total (n = 6) or segmental (n = 6) biliary occlusion or galactosamine-induced hepatitis (n = 6) was induced 3 days before imaging. Six rabbits served as normal controls. T1- and T2-weighted axial MR images were acquired at baseline, followed by T1-weighted images every 10 minutes for 1 hour after the intravenous administration of 20 μmol/kg Mn-DPDP. Except for the segmental occlusion group, the baseline study did not allow distinction between normal and abnormal livers. The temporal hepatic enhancement pattern was statistically different for each group. The normal, segmental occlusion, and hepatitis groups showed patterns similar to one another but markedly higher signal intensity than the total-occlusion group throughout the observation period. In contrast, the gallbladder showed a greater difference in both degree of enhancement and time to peak enhancement among the four groups. Mn-DPDP produces a temporal hepatic enhancement pattern that allows recognition of markedly impaired livers, and gallbladder enhancement patterns that allow distinction of more subtly impaired livers. 相似文献

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the ability of Gd-enhancement and fat-suppressed MR imaging operating at midfield strength to characterize incidentally discovered adrenal masses. Sixty patients with 72 adrenal masses incidentally discovered during US or CT exams were studied with a 0.51 MR unit following clinical and laboratory evaluation. After Gd-DTPA intravenous administration a modified three-point Dixon technique was performed in all patients. This technique provided three images sets: conventional T1-weighted SE images, fat-suppressed T1-weighted images and water-suppressed T1-weighted images. Diagnosis was established by means of surgery (11 lesions), fineneedle biopsy (21 lesions) and stability on ultrasonographic follow-up for at least 1 year (range, 12–87 months) from adrenal lesion discovery (40 masses). In most of adenomas (n = 55) an homogeneous enhancement was observed on postcontrast T1WI; however, 15 out of these lesions showed a small focal spot of high intensity in Gd-enhanced fat-suppressed images. On the contrary, malignant conditions (n = 6) and pheochromocytoma (n = 1), all had inhomogeneous signal intensities which were relatively higher after Gadolinium injection as compared with the liver. The fat suppression technique demonstrated areas of bright signal intensity related to high vascularity. The performance of three observers in order to differentiate malignant from benign conditions showed sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, positive and negative predictive values of 100, 88.5, 90, 50 and 100% on the basis of gadolinium enhancement only, by utilizing the Dixon technique. In conclusion, although Gd-enhancement and fat-suppressed sequence helped correctly differentiate among the groups of incidentally discovered adrenal masses, the degree of overlap suggests that it is still difficult to characterize individual patients. However, the modified three-point Dixon technique after contrast material administration appears to be a further capability of midfield MRI in the characterization of adrenal tissue. 相似文献

We compared the value of T2-weighted and Gd-DOTA-enhanced T1-weighted images for the detection and characterisation of 33 small renal masses (14 clear cell carcinomas, 6 angiomyolipomas, 3 angiomyomas, 4 adenomas, 3 papillary carcinomas, 3 oncocytomas, 1 haemorrhagic cyst). Dynamic enhanced MRI was performed to study the tumoral vascular supply (19 cases). MRI depicted all the masses more than 1 cm in diameter, but missed all the lesions less than 1 cm (4 false-negative). The results of T2-weighted images and Gd-DOTA-enhanced images were similar as regards detection; however, Gd-DOTA-enhanced images depicted more clearly the tumours smaller than 2 cm (11 cases). MRI enabled the characterisation of only 3 masses (2 angiomyolipomas, 1 haemorrhagic cyst). New MRI features are described for oncocytomas (low signal intensity on T1-weighted images, high signal intensity on T2-weighted images, early and marked enhancement on dynamic enhanced MRI). Dynamic enhanced MRI did not contribute to the differentiation of benign from malignant tumours.

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of MR diffusion imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurement of solid and cystic mediastinal masses to differentiate benign from malignant lesions.Patients and methods
The study included 52 patients with mediastinal masses underwent conventional MRI and DWI (b value 0, 500 and 1000?s/mm2) examinations with 1.5-T MRI. The signal intensity of the lesions and the ADC values of the solid and cystic lesions were obtained. Statistical analyses were performed with the Mann-Whitney U test (z), Pearson’s chi-square test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.Results
29 lesions were malignant and 23 lesions were benign. The diffusion signal of the malignant masses was significantly higher than benign masses (p?=?0.0001), the mean ADC value of benign lesions was higher than that of malignant lesions (p?=?0.0001). By ROC analysis, ADC cutoff value of 1.25?×?10?3?mm2/s was considered the threshold value, and the sensitivity and specificity were 94.4% and 86.2%, respectively. There was no statistical difference between the ADC values of the cystic part in either benign or malignant lesions.Conclusion
Diffusion weighted MRI and measurement of ADC value can differentiate between solid benign and malignant mediastinal lesions. 相似文献10.

Both benign and malignant breast lesions may exhibit intense contrast enhancement when imaged using gadolinium-enhanced MRI. We propose a quantitative approach for fitting dynamic signal intensity (SI) data that may distinguish benign from malignant lesions. We studied 78 lesions in 75 women (18 malignancies, 16 fibroadenomas, and 44 other benign breast lesions) to determine the potential of this model for decreasing false-positive MR results. Twenty-eight lesions showed no enhancement; all were benign. One lesion showed a complex pattern not amenable to region-of-interest analysis and was considered a false positive. SI versus time data for the remaining 49 lesions were fit to the proposed model. We found that one parameter, M, the normalized slope of the SI enhancement profile evaluated at half the maximal signal intensity, seemed to be highly correlated with malignancy and offered improved discrimination between malignant and benign lesions compared to a previously published two-point slope method. 相似文献

Purpose
To assess the value of (MRI), (DWI) and (MRS) in the diagnosis of different orbital masses and differentiation between benign and malignant masses.Patients and methods
Sixty patients were enrolled in this study (31 females, 29 males, their ages ranged from 3?month to 75?years with mean age of 35.3?years). Clinical examination, (T1WI&T2WI) MRI and postcontrast T1WI, DWI, and MR Spectroscopy were done in all cases. Histopathological examination was done for 55 patients, and follow-up was done for 5 cases after medical treatment: two cases of pseudotumor and three cases of cellulites.Results
The study comprised 60 patients complaining of proptosis, swelling and diminution of vision. Thirty-three (55%) of patients had benign orbital masses and 27 (45%) patients had malignant orbital masses. The mean ADC value of malignant lesions was 0.89?±?0.20. There was a statistically significant difference (p?=?≤.001) between benign and malignant ADC values. The Mean Cho/Cr ratio for benign lesions was 1.19?±?0.25 which showed statistically high significance (p?=?≤.0017) compared to Cho/Cr ratio of malignant lesions which was 2.44?±?0.30.Diffusion-weighted MRI could differentiate between benign and malignant masses in 75% of cases. However, MRS could overcome this overlap and could differentiate benign from malignant tumors in 96% of scanned patients.Conclusion
Both DWI and MRS imaging are helpful tools in differentiating malignant orbital lesions from benign masses. 相似文献13.

Purpose
To evaluate previously described growth patterns in < 4 cm solid renal masses.Materials and Methods
With IRB approval, 63 renal cell carcinomas (RCC; clear cell n = 22, papillary n = 28, chromophobe n = 13) and 36 benign masses [minimal-fat (mf) angiomyolipoma (AML) n = 13, oncocytoma n = 23) from a single institution were independently evaluated by two blinded radiologists (R1/R2) using T2-weighted MRI for (1) the angular interface sign (AIS), (2) bubble-over sign (BOS), (3) percentage (%) exophytic growth and (4) long-to-short axis ratio. Comparisons were performed using ANOVA, chi-square and multi-variate regression.Results
AIS was present in 11.1% (7/63) -9.5% (6/63) R1/R2 RCC compared to 13.9% (5/36) -19.4% (7/36) R1/R2 benign masses (p = 0.68 and 0.16). BOS was present in 11.1% (7/63) -3.2% (2/63) R1/R2 RCC compared to 16.7% (6/36) -8.3% (3/36) R1/R2 benign masses (p = 0.432 and 0.261). Agreement was moderate (K = 0.50 and 0.55). mf-AML [66 ± 32% (range 0-100%)] and oncocytoma [53 ± 26% (0-90%)] had larger % exophytic growth compared to RCC [32 ± 23% (0-80%)] (p < 0.001). No RCC had 90-100% exophytic growth, present in 38.5% (5/13) mf-AMLs and 17.4% (4/23) oncocytomas. The long-to-short axis did not differ between groups (p = 0.053).Conclusions
Benign masses show greater % exophytic growth whereas other growth patterns are not useful. Future studies evaluating % exophytic growth using multi-variate MR analysis in renal masses are required.Key Points
? Greater exophytic growth is associated with benignity among solid renal masses. ? Only minimal fat AMLs and oncocytomas had 90-100% exophytic growth. ? The angular interface sign was not useful to differentiate benign masses from RCC. ? The bubble-over sign was not useful to differentiate benign masses from RCC. ? Subjective analysis of growth patterns had fair-to-moderate agreement.14.

Purpose
Tuberculosis is uncommon in the nasopharynx. The purpose of this study was to investigate the CT and MRI features of 36 cases of tuberculosis in this area.Materials and methods
CT (n = 15) and MRI (n = 21) scans from 36 patients with histologically proved tuberculosis of the nasopharynx were reviewed by two experienced radiologists, paying particular attention to the lesions’ distribution, location, extent, size, internal architecture, pattern, and degree of enhancement, and cervical lymphadenopathy.Results
Twenty-nine patients exhibited a polypoid mass pattern and seven had diffuse mucosal thickening. The roof of the nasopharynx was involved in all cases. The mean size of the lesions was 11.4 mm. Striped pattern was detected in 19 cases. Adjacent muscle invasion or bone destruction was not detected. Heterogeneous enhancement was detected in all patients, and necrosis in the nasopharyngeal lesions was detected in 16 cases. Poor, moderate, and marked enhancement was detected in one, 27, and eight cases, respectively. Thirty-four patients had involvement of the cervical lymph nodes. Twenty-two and 28 cases were associated with bilateral lymphadenopathy or necrosis, respectively. The retropharyngeal lymph node was the most commonly involved site (94.1%).Conclusion
The presence of necrosis and striped pattern in nasopharyngeal lesions, site predilection, no invasion of regional structures, and central necrosis with peripheral rim enhancement of cervical lymphadenopathy may suggest the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal tuberculosis. 相似文献15.

This study investigated the relationship between apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measures and dynamic contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) kinetics in breast lesions and evaluated the relative diagnostic value of each quantitative parameter. Seventy‐seven women with 100 breast lesions (27 malignant and 73 benign) underwent both dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted MRI. Dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI kinetic parameters included peak initial enhancement, predominant delayed kinetic curve type (persistent, plateau, or washout), and worst delayed kinetic curve type (washout > plateau > persistent). Associations between ADC and dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI kinetic parameters and predictions of malignancy were evaluated. Results showed that ADC was significantly associated with predominant curve type (ADC was higher for lesions exhibiting predominantly persistent enhancement compared with those exhibiting predominantly washout or plateau, P = 0.006), but was not significantly associated with peak initial enhancement or worst curve type (P > 0.05). Univariate analysis showed significant differences between benign and malignant lesions in both ADC (P < 0.001) and worst curve (P = 0.003). In multivariate analysis, worst curve type and ADC were significant independent predictors of benign versus malignant outcome and in combination produced the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (0.85 and 0.78 with 5‐fold cross validation).

A total of 22 women with fibroadenomas had preoperative dynamic MR study (T1-weighted images every 47 s after injection of Gd-DOTA). Their age, hormonal status, breast MR studies and histopathological slides were retrospectively reviewed. Eleven pre- (n = 2) or post-menopausal (n = 9) women showed no early contrast enhancement. The absence of early contrast enhancement correlated with hyalin stromal component. Eleven pre- (n = 7) or post-menopausal (n = 4) women showed focal (n = 9) or diffuse (n = 2) early contrast enhancement. Early focal contrast enhancement correlated with myxoid (n = 9), mixed hyalin/myxoid (n = 1) or hyalin (n = 1) fibroadenomas. Early diffuse contrast enhancement of the breast correlated with myxoid (n = 1) or hyalin (n = 1) stromal component associated with proliferative fibrocystic disease of the breast parenchyma. The presence of contrast enhancement correlated with myxoid fibroadenomas, whereas absence of contrast enhancement correlated with hyalin fibroadenomas. As hyalin fibroadenomas occurs in post-menopausal women, the diagnostic accuracy of dynamic MRI may be improved in this age group.

Aim
Evaluate the role of ADC value measurements in the differentiation between benign and malignant neck masses.Methods
From April 2011 to February 2013, prospective study was conducted on 30 patients (17 male and 13 female), with the mean age 43.3 ± 6 years. Collected from wards and clinics of General Surgery and Otolaryngology Departments complaining from neck masses. MRI, Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (b value 0, 100, 500 and 1000 s/mm) and ADC value calculation were performed and the results were correlated with histopathological results and/or follow up.Results
The present study include 30 patients (Lymphadenopathy {(n = 15) (11 as single entity), (4 associated with other entities)}, Focal thyroid swelling (n = 5), Salivary gland masses (n = 3) {Parotitis (1 case), Parotid carcinoma (2 cases)}, Nasopharyngeal masses (n = 5), Oropharyngeal masses (n = 2), Ludwig angina (n = 2) and Laryngeal masses (n = 2).The mean ADC of the malignant neck masses was (0.699 + 0.267 × 10-3 mm2/s) while that of the benign masses was (1.879 + 0.751 × 10-3 mm2/s).The results confirmed by biopsy in 23 cases and follow up (7 cases).The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and overall accuracy of quantitative diffusion WI in differentiating benign from malignant neck masses were 95.4%, 83.3%, 95.4%, 83%, and 92%.Conclusion
ADC value calculation are promising noninvasive imaging approach that can be used in distinguishing between benign and malignant neck masses. Benign lesions have higher mean ADC values than malignant lesions, the cutoff value was 1.25 × 10-3 mm2/s while 0.8 × 10-3 mm2/s in thyroid lesions. 相似文献19.

Objective. To distinguish between benign and malignant tumors in the peripheral nerves. Design and patients. The clinical, imaging and histologic findings of 99 benign and 16 malignant tumors in the peripheral nerves were reviewed
retrospectively. Results. Preoperative motor weakness was observed in only six of 99 benign tumors and was mild, while slight to severe motor weakness
was present in 15 of 16 malignant lesions. Pain at rest was present in five of 99 benign tumors and in 15 of 16 malignant
tumors. All benign lesions showed a smooth tumoral margin, while half the malignant lesions showed an invasive margin on CT
or MRI. Thirteen of 28 benign lesions on CT and nine of 23 on MRI showed round to geographic central enhancement, but this
pattern was not seen in malignant lesions. Conclusion. Absence of severe motor weakness and a central enhancement pattern strongly suggest a benign nature, while severe rest pain
and invasive tumor margin suggest malignant lesions in peripheral nerve tumors.

PurposeThis study was designed to evaluate the role of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for differentiation of parotid gland neoplasms.MethodsProspective study was conducted upon 52 consecutive patients (30 men, 22 women; aged 24–78 years; mean, 51 years) with parotid tumours that underwent multiparametric MRI using combined static MRI, dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). The static MRI parameter, time signal intensity curves (TIC) derived from DCE-MRI, and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of parotid tumours were correlated with histopathological findings.ResultsStatic MRI revealed a significant difference between both benign and malignant lesions in regards to margin definition (P < .001) and T2 hypointensity (P < .013), with a diagnostic accuracy 95% and 78.33% respectively. Study of the TIC type on DCE-MRI revealed statistically significant difference between benign and malignant lesions (P < .001) and diagnostic accuracy 96.55%. There was no statistically significant difference (P = .181) between the ADC values of benign and malignant lesions. ROC curve analysis revealed that by using ADC cut-off value of 1 × 10?3 mm2/s had accuracy of 84.62% respectively for differentiating Warthin from malignant tumours that could be modified to higher value (94.28%) by excluding lymphoma from malignant lesions. By using cutoff value of 1.3 × 10?3 mm2/s to differentiate pleomorphic adenoma from malignancy, ROC curve analysis had high accuracy of 97.06%.ConclusionMultiparametric MRI can be used for differentiation of malignant from benign parotid tumours and characterization of some benign parotid tumours. 相似文献
