Increased contrast magnetic imaging in the diagnosis of hypophyseal adenoma
https://doi.org/10.14341/probl12036
Abstract
Magnevist (Schering, Germany) was tried for magnetic imaging using Magnetom-P63 (Siemens) superconducting magnetic resonance system at a magnetic field intensity of 1.5 T. Magnetic imaging of the brain was carried out in 24 patients with hypophyseal adenomas before and after intravenous injection of Magnevist. Use of this agent helped more distinctly differentiate between adenoma tissue and the adjacent parasellar structures of the brain, thus appreciably improving the quality of diagnosis of hypophyseal adenoma by magnetic imaging. Recommendations on the use of Magnevist for examination of the sellar region by magnetic imaging are offered.
