Abstract

Objectives: The role of susceptibilities in a magnetic field can be used for imaging a diverse group of disease patterns in the human body. The objective of this study is to utilize these properties in the spectrum of neurological diseases. Materials and methods: This is a prospective and retrospective study conducted in the department of radio diagnosis, KMC Hospital, Ambedkar Circle in Mangalore. Over a period of 3 years, utilizing 1.5 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging machine on subjects who had come for routine neurological consultation with clinical indications for imaging. 129 patients of any age group with suspected haemorrhage, infarct, trauma, seizures, intracranial infections, intracranial venous thrombosis and vascular malformations were studied. Results: A total of 129 subjects were studied-40 cases of acute stroke,40 cases of haemorrhage, 8 cases with suspected micro haemorrhages, 15 cases of venous thrombosis, 11 cases of calcifications and 14 cases of contrast enhancement manifesting on SWI imaging in the form of varied susceptibilities to clinch the diagnosis and enable appropriate treatment. Conclusion: Susceptibility weighted imaging is an effective and useful diagnostic tool in magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis for a variety of neurological conditions.

敏感性加权磁共振成像在神经系统诊断中的作用

目的:磁化率在磁场中的作用可用于人体多种疾病模式的成像。本研究的目的是利用这些特性的频谱神经系统疾病。材料与方法:本研究是在芒格洛尔Ambedkar圈KMC医院放射诊断科进行的前瞻性和回顾性研究。在3年的时间里，使用1.5台特斯拉磁共振成像机对前来进行常规神经学会诊的有临床指征的受试者进行影像学检查。对129例疑似出血、梗死、外伤、癫痫发作、颅内感染、颅内静脉血栓形成及血管畸形的任意年龄组患者进行研究。结果:共研究129例受试者，其中急性脑卒中40例，出血40例，疑似微出血8例，静脉血栓形成15例，钙化11例，SWI造影增强14例，表现为不同的敏感性，以确定诊断和适当治疗。结论:敏感性加权成像是磁共振成像诊断多种神经系统疾病的有效诊断工具。
