MRI诊断隐睾症的临床价值

目的:探讨隐睾的MRI表现及其诊断价值。方法:对16例临床怀疑隐睾症的患者进行MRI检查,作T1WI、T2WI,并加脂肪抑制,对其MRI表现进行分析,所有病例经手术证实。结果:16例隐睾(共19枚)呈椭圆形或结节状,T1WI为等、低信号,T2WI为高信号,T2WI加抑脂信号最高。所有病例均由MRI正确诊断。结论:MRI对隐睾能准确定位,其表现具有特征性,是诊断隐睾症有价值的方法。

Clinical Application of MRI in Cryptorchism

Objective:To evaluate the MRI manifestations and its value in the diagnosis of cryptorchism.Methods:MRI was performed in 16 patients who were clinically suspected of having cryptorchism.The MRI sequences included T_1WI and T_2WI with fat suppression and their manifestations were analyzed.All patients were finally proved by surgical operation.Results:In this study group,MRI revealed 19 cryptorchism in 16 patients which were elliptical or round in shape,hypo-intense and homogeneous in T_1WI and hyper-intense in T_2WI as well as T_2WI with fat suppression.T_2WI with fat suppression was the sequence showing the highest signal intensity.All patients were correctly diagnosed by MRI.Conclusion:MRI is able to localize cryptorchism accurately,with referable diagnostic manifestations,which is helpful in the diagnosis of the disease.
