PURPOSE: To define the duct-penetrating sign at magnetic resonance (MR)
cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and to assess the usefulness of this sign for distinguishing an …

PURPOSE: To compare helical computed tomography (CT) and dynamic, magnetic resonance
(MR) imaging in the evaluation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. MATERIALS AND …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the demonstration of the pearl necklace sign at magnetic resonance
(MR) cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) in patients with proven adenomyomatosis and …

PURPOSE To report our preliminary results in the application of a turbo fluid-attenuated
inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR technique to the diagnosis of intracranial tumors and to assess …

Background: Anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction (a long common channel), with or
without congenital choledochal cyst, is frequently associated with biliary tract carcinoma. We …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to compare unenhanced and contrast-enhanced
fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging with other sequences to visualize …

PURPOSE To assess the usefulness of fast fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR
sequences in the diagnosis of intracranial infectious diseases. METHODS We compared fast …

Objective: Magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRC), using a half-Fourier acquisition
single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) sequence, noninvasively provides very rapid (1–2 s) and …

Background: Multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT, or multi-slice CT) has been
introduced in 2000. So far, there has been no published study on this modality in patients with …

Objective: We analyzed the findings of intraductal papillary tumors of the pancreas by
magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Methods: Twelve patients with …
