Dynamic CT vs 0.5 T MR Imaging in the Detection of Surgically Proven Hepatic Metastases

Dynamic CT vs 0.5 T MR Imaging in the Detection of Surgically Proven Hepatic Metastases Seventeen patients with 52 surgically proven hepatic metastases were studied preoperatively with dynamic CT and 0.5 T magnetic resonance (MR). Dynamic CT detected 38 metastases (73%), and the combination of short echo time (T1-weighted) and T2-weighted pulse sequences detected 46 lesions (88%). Magnetic resonance was also superior at assessing potential resectability. This study suggests that MR excels in detecting and anatomically localizing individual hepatic metastases. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography Wolters Kluwer Health

Abstract

Seventeen patients with 52 surgically proven hepatic metastases were studied preoperatively with dynamic CT and 0.5 T magnetic resonance (MR). Dynamic CT detected 38 metastases (73%), and the combination of short echo time (T1-weighted) and T2-weighted pulse sequences detected 46 lesions (88%). Magnetic resonance was also superior at assessing potential resectability. This study suggests that MR excels in detecting and anatomically localizing individual hepatic metastases.
