The application of NMR imaging to the evaluation of pituitary and juxtasellar tumors

RC Hawkes, GN Holland, WS Moore, R Corston, DM Kean and BS Worthington

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging was used to evaluate pituitary and juxtasellar tumors in 37 patients representing a wide range of pathology. The value of the multiplanar facility of NMR is emphasized in providing accurate volumetric information and establishing the topographical relation of tumors to adjacent structures. Current limitations of the method and possible future developments to improve diagnostic precision are discussed.
