概括
扩散基谱成像 (DBSI) 和扩散张力成像 (DTI) 可以预测多发性硬化症 (MS) 的持久黑洞 (PBHs). 在急性病变中,较高的DBSI非受限制分数和较低的DBSI受限制分数表明未来的组织破坏.
科学领域:
- 神经成像是一种神经成像.
- 放射学 放射学是一门学科.
- 多发性硬化症研究研究
背景情况:
- 扩散基谱成像 (DBSI) 通过分析多个扩散张力提供比扩散张力成像 (DTI) 更高的本病特异性.
- 多发性硬化症 (MS) 中的持续性黑洞 (PBH) 表示严重的组织损伤,与增加的残疾相关.
- 从急性对比增强病变 (CEL) 预测PBH发展对于了解MS进展至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 评估DBSI和DTI指标对急性CEL在12个月内演变为PBH的预测能力.
- 调查急性CEL和随后的PBH形成中的特定扩散参数 (DBSI和DTI) 之间的关系.
主要方法:
- 一项前性队列研究,涉及复发性多发性硬化症患者,至少有一个CEL.
- 每月进行4-6个月的MRI扫描,以跟踪CEL直到gadolinium分辨率.
- 在最大CEL显现时量化DBSI和DTI指标,至少12个月后进行随访MRI以确定PBHs.
主要成果:
- 在20个成员国的164个CEL中,59个 (36%) 演变成了PBH.
- 在成为PBH的CEL中,DTI辐射扩散率 (RD) 和轴向扩散率 (AD) 显著增加.
- 0.45以上的DBSI非受限制分数 (表明胀/细胞外空间) 和0.07以下的DBSI受限制分数是PBH发展的显著预测因素.
结论:
- 根据DBSI指标,急性CEL内的胀和细胞外空间增加预示着随后的组织破坏和PBH形成.
- DBSI指标,特别是非受限制和受限制分数,在预测PBH在MS的发展方面表现有前途.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging
5.2K
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...
