..The present report describes the successful detection of three lymphoceles of the inguinal region with leaking lymphatic vessels by means of high-resolution MR lymphangiography...

..We present the CT findings of 57 patients with wegener granulomatosis and a review of the literature...

..To assess pulmonary abnormalities in patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome (PSS) using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT)...

..To assess the feasibility of a time-efficient, high-resolution magnetic resonance lymphangiography (HR MRL) protocol without image subtraction for the detection of lymphatic vessels in patients with primary and secondary lymphedema...

..The proposed technique represents a minimally invasive imaging method of identifying anatomical and physiological derangements in lymphatic vessels...

..CONCLUSION: High-resolution MR lymphangiography is safe, is technically feasible, and has the potential to become a diagnostic imaging tool for patients with lymphedema...

..We report on the first patient suffering from Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome whose lymphatic vasculature of the lower limbs was evaluated with MR lymphangiography...

..To assess the value of computed tomography (CT) in patients with acute perforated sigmoid diverticulitis in correlation with the Hinchey classification of perforated diverticular disease...

..To evaluate pulmonary pathologies in Wegener granulomatosis with sequential computed tomography (CT) in order to differentiate active inflammatory lesions from chronic fibrotic lesions...

..These findings are, however, nonspecific and should be combined with other clinicopathologic and laboratory studies to confirm the diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis...

..Colonic carcinoma should be included as a differential diagnosis in young patients with abdominal pain of unknown etiology...

..Furthermore, 3D MIP reconstructions supported the identification of the lymphatic vessels and differentiation from veins due to the different angles of view...

..We report on the first patient suffering from disseminated lymphangiomatosis with skeletal involvement, whose lymphatic vasculature of the lower limbs and pelvic region was evaluated with magnetic resonance lymphangiography...

..The aim of this study was to perform a pre-therapeutic evaluation of the lymphatic system in patients with lymphocutaneous fistulas by magnetic resonance lymphangiography (MRL)...

..To assess the morphology of the lymphatic system pre- and postoperatively in patients undergoing microsurgical reconstructions of the lymphatic vessels...

....

..In conclusion the GEMOX-3 protocol is active and well tolerated in patients with advanced BTC. It can be applied in an outpatient setting with three visits per month only...

..To develop and evaluate non-slab-selective magnetization preparation in contrast-enhanced 3D-MR angiography...

....

..Therefore, whole-body MRI should be performed as an additional method of exactly staging PCN patients and - with more data in the field - may even prove to be an alternate and more sensitive staging procedure than RSS in PCN patients...

..The authors believe that this approach may be an alternative to the standard treatments in palliative-care situations...

..We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) for detection of liver metastases in malignant melanoma...

..To improve the detection of perianal fistulas, we studied digital subtraction MR-fistulography for tissue differentiation based on signal intensity measurements...

....

..To investigate a new MR-imaging protocol defined as subtraction MR-fistulography for the detection of fistula-in-ano...

..To evaluate the diagnostic value of whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and skeletal scintigraphy in the detection of skeletal metastases in patients with solid tumors...

..Technical and clinical success was achieved in both cases, with primary patency rates of 100% 12 months after intervention...

..No complications such as a pneumothorax or bleeding occurred. Further clinical experience and prospective studies are necessary to determine the long-term efficacy of RFA in the treatment of lung tumours...

..MRI is more sensitive and specific than (18)FDG-PET detecting bone marrow metastases and infiltration of the spine and has a great impact in staging cancer patients...
