Abstract

Purpose

To compare the image quality of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) in the supine position and prone position under the conditions of the same equipment, the same sequence (3D Navigator Triggered Sampling Perfection with Application-Optimized Contrast Using Different Flip-angle Evolutions, 3D-NT-SPACE) and the same patient, and to explore the clinical application value of prone position in MRCP examination to suppress respiratory motion artifacts.

Methods

53 participants who underwent MRCP in our hospital from April 2020 to August 2022 were prospectively collected. The 3D-NT-SPACE sequence was used in these patients. The visibility of the common bile duct, common hepatic duct, main pancreatic duct, and first- and second- and third-level branches of the intrahepatic bile duct and the comfort of the participants in two positions were subjective-evaluated. The Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio were objective-evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed using Shapiro–Wilk, Levene’s, Mann Whitney U test, Pearson chi-square test, and one-sample chi-square test.

Results

53 patients (51.92 years ± 2.02, 20 men) were evaluated. There were significant differences in the second- and third-level branches visibility score, the main pancreatic duct visibility score, the image quality score of the pancreaticobiliary tree, the blur and motion artifact score, the total image quality score, and SNR between the two positions (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

The overall image quality of the prone position was better than that of the supine position. The prone position is a useful complement to the supine position.

Stumme Schlaganfälle − ein häufiger Nebenbefund im Kopf-CT?

In 4% der in der Notfallambulanz initiierten zerebralen Bildgebung sind „alte“ Schlaganfälle zu erkennen. Gar nicht so selten handelt es sich laut einer aktuellen Studie dabei um unbemerkte Insulte. Bietet sich hier womöglich die Chance auf ein effektives opportunistisches Screening?

Stören weiße Wände und viel Licht die Bildqualitätskontrolle?

Wenn es darum geht, die technische Qualität eines Mammogramms zu beurteilen, könnten graue Wandfarbe und reduzierte Beleuchtung im Bildgebungsraum von Vorteil sein. Darauf deuten zumindest Ergebnisse einer kleinen Studie hin. 

PMBCL mit CMR: Radiatio kann ohne Risiko weggelassen werden

Patienten mit primär mediastinalem B-Zell-Lymphom (PMBCL), die nach der Induktionstherapie eine komplette metabolische Remission (CMR) erreichen und keine konsolidierende Bestrahlung erhalten, müssen offenbar keine Überlebensnachteile fürchten.

Hypoxisch-ischämische Enzephalopathie: Indikatoren für eine ungünstige Prognose

Eine US-amerikanische Studie widmete sich der Identifizierung prognostischer Parameter bei Neugeborenen mit mittelschwerer oder schwerer hypoxisch-ischämischer Enzephalopathie (HIE), die mittels induzierter Hypoxie behandelt wurden. Besonders im 24-Stunden-EEG und der MRT konnten relevante Hinweise gefunden werden.
