Tracking the Mammary Architectural Features and Detecting Breast Cancer with Magnetic Resonance Diffusion Tensor Imaging

Abstract:
MRI of the female pelvis offers a unique display of pelvic anatomy. On the T2-weighted images, uterine zonal anatomy and temporal changes under hormonal stimuli are well displayed. Benign and malignant uterine neoplasms are accurately demonstrated. However, tumor type cannot be diagnosed. In the staging of endometrial and cervical carcinoma, MRI offers distinct advantages over sonography and/or CT. The main advantages are the abilities to depict tumor and to provide great tissue contrast between the tumor and surrounding normal tissue. In the evaluation of ovarian tumors, experience with MRI is still limited. This is only the beginning of the clinical applications of MRI. Much more work needs to be done to explore fully the value of this versatile and powerful technique.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
