CT-Assessment of Dependent Lung Densities in Man during General Anaesthesia Tập 36 Số 4-6 - Trang 626-632 - 1995
H. Lundquist, Göran Hedenstierna, Anna K. Strandberg, L. Tokics, B Brismar
Purpose: We aimed to describe the frequency of atelectasis occurring during
anaesthesia, to describe the size and pattern of the atelectasis, and to
standardise the method of identifying the atelectasis and calculate its area.
Material and Methods: Patients (n=109) scheduled for elective abdominal surgery
were examined with CT of the thorax during anaesthesia. Results: In 95 patients
(87%) depende... hiện toàn bộ
Contrast-medium-induced nephropathy correlated to the ratio between dose in gram iodine and estimated gfr in ml/min Tập 46 Số 8 - Trang 830-842 - 2005
Ulf Nyman, T. Almén, P. Aspelin, Mikael Hellström, Marianne Kristiansson, Gunnar Sterner
Purpose: To suggest a more precise tool when assessing the risk of
contrast-medium-induced nephropathy (CIN), i.e. the ratio between contrast
medium (CM) dose expressed in grams of iodine (g-I) and estimated glomerular
filtration rate in ml/min (eGFR; based on equations using serum-creatinine
(s-Cr), weight, height, age, and/or sex), here named I-dose/GFR ratio. Material
and Methods: A Medline sea... hiện toàn bộ
Acceleration of primary liver tumor growth rate in embolized hepatic lobe after portal vein embolization Tập 48 Số 7 - Trang 721-727 - 2007
Shinya Hayashi, Yasutaka Baba, Kazuto Ueno, Masayuki Nakajo, Fumitake Kubo, Satoshi Ueno, Takashi Aikou, Teruo Komokata, Noboru Nakamura, R Sakata
Background: Portal vein embolization (PVE) is now widely accepted as a useful
preoperative procedure in selected patients undergoing extended hepatectomy.
However, the effect of PVE on the growth of liver tumors has not been fully
elucidated. Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the effects of PVE on the
growth of liver tumors in the embolized lobes. Material and Methods: Eight
patients with a pri... hiện toàn bộ
MR imaging of meniscal subluxation in the knee Tập 38 Số 5 - Trang 876-879 - 1997
Martin Breitenseher, S. Trattni, I. Dobrocky, Christian Kukla, S. Nehrer, Erich Steiner, H. Imhof
Purpose: The aim of this study was to establish diagnostic criteria for meniscal
subluxation, and to determine whether there was any connection between meniscal
subluxation and other common meniscal and knee-joint abnormalities. Material and
Methods: The normal position of the meniscal body was assessed in 10
asymptomatic volunteers. MR signs of meniscal subluxation were evaluated
retrospectively ... hiện toàn bộ
Cerebral hemodynamics in a healthy population measured by dynamic susceptibility contrast MR imaging Tập 44 Số 5 - Trang 538-546 - 2003
Juha Helenius, Jussi Perkiö, Lauri Soinne, Leif Østergaard, Richard A.D. Carano, Oili Salonen, Sauli Savolainen, Markku Kaste, Hannu J. Aronen, Turgut Tatlisumak
Purpose: To establish reference data and to study age-dependency for cerebral
perfusion in various regions of the brain in a healthy population. Material and
Methods: Eighty healthy subjects of both genders from 22 to 85 years of age were
studied with spin echo echo-planar dynamic susceptibility contrast MR imaging
(DSC MRI) at 1.5 T. Cerebral blood volume (CBV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), and

MnDPDP for MR imaging of the liver Tập 38 Số 5 - Trang 638-642 - 1997
Ernst J. Rummeny, C. G. Torres, J C Kurdziel, G Nilsen, Bart Op de Beeck, B. Lundby
Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of mangafodipir trisodium (MnDPDP,
Teslascan) as a new contrast agent for MR imaging of the liver based on an
independent evaluation of the MR images from the European phase III studies.
Material and Methods: MR imaging of the liver was done at 0.5–2.0 T in 17
European centres and included T1-weighted spin-echo and gradient-echo sequences
before and aft... hiện toàn bộ
