RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the value of FIESTA sequence for the abdominal scanning of the patient undergoing uneffective respiratory triggering. Methods 40 cases undergoing uneffective respiratory triggering were adopted as the subjects. GE SIGNA 1.5T and fat-suppressed technique got involved in. Two chief physicians and two associate chief technologists compared the image quality and the lesion detective rate. Results FIESTA sequence was better than FSE T2WI in the aspect of image quality, but worse in lesion detective rate. Conclusion FIESTA sequence is clinically valuable for the abdominal scanning of patient undergoing unffective respiratory triggering.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the CT and MRI value in diagnosis and clinical manifestations of liver tumor in child. Methods 13 cases of surgically and pathologically confirmed liver tumor were retrospectively analyzed that 11 males, 2 fe- males, age range from 13 months to 14 years, average age 10.8 years. Contrast CT was undertaken in 10 patients and MRI in 6 patients. Results In all cases comprised primary hepatocellular carcinoma 7 cases(8%), hepatoblastoma 3 cases(23%), leukemia involved liver 1 case, cavernous hemangioma 1 case, hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma 1 case. Different type of tumor had its own imaging manifestations. Conclusion CT and MRI can precisely delineate the location, size, extent of in- volvement. It provides an important basis of clinical staging for tumors prognosis and treatment.
