[Magnetic resonance tomography using the contrast preparation Magnevist]
Abstract:
The diagnostic possibilities of magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) using the contrasting agent magnevist were assessed by the examination of 282 patients with diseases of various organs and systems. The findings suggest that the contrasting agent magnevist shows its highly diagnostic efficiency particularly in central nervous diseases, among them there are tumors, multiple sclerosis, some vascular abnormalities and cerebral circulatory disorders. The agent used in MPT is also highly effective in identifying diseases of the liver (tumors, cysts), uterine (tumors), prostate (tumors). The valuable diagnostic information was obtained while detecting skeletal and soft tissue tumors and aseptic necrosis of the head of the femur.
