Clinical Application of Magnetic Resonance Hydrography in Diagnosing Cystic Echinococcosis / 实用放射学杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical application of magnetic resonance hydrography(MRH) in diagnosing cystic echinococcosis(CE).Methods 47 cases with CE were proved by surgery and pathology.All cases were examed by MRI and MRH.Results Among the 151 lesions in 47 cases,the sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of CE were 61.59% and 93.33% for MR imaging,92.05% and 86.67% for MRH,respectively.Conclusion The detecting rate of MRH was significant high than that of MRI,MRH combined with MRI has more advantages in diagnosis of CE.
