Results: Arthroscopy demonstrated granulation tissue in the lateral gutter (38%) and anterior recess (31%), lesions of the anterior tibiofibular (31%) and the anterior talofibular ligament (21%), and intra-articular bodies (10%). Stenosing tenosynovitis and a ganglionic cyst were revealed as extra-articular causes for chronic ankle pain by MR examination (17%). Agreement of MR imaging and arthroscopy was fair for the anterior talofibular ligament and the anterior joint cavity (j=0.40). Major discrepancy was found for nonenhanced MR scans (j=0.49) when compared with indirect MR arthrography (j=0.03) in the anterior cavity. The sensitivity for lesions of the anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligament and the anterior cavity (0.91-0.87) detected by MR imaging was superior in comparison to lesions of the anterior tibiofibular ligament and anteromedial cavity (0.50-0.24). Conclusion: MR imaging provides additional information about the mechanics of chronic ankle impingement rather than an accurate diagnosis of this clinical entity. The method is helpful in differentiating extra-from intra-articular causes of ankle impingement. Indirect MR arthrography has little or no additional value in patients with ankle impingement syndrome.

Materials and Methods: Magnetic resonance imaging experiments were performed on 10 healthy volunteers at 1.5 T, with a diffusion IVIM magnetic resonance imaging protocol using a set of b-values optimized by Cramer-Rao Lower Bound analysis. Hypoperfusion was induced by an HV maneuver. Measurements were performed in normoventilation and HV conditions. Biexponential curve fitting was used to obtain the perfusion fraction (f), pseudodiffusion coefficient (D*), and the product fD* in gray matter (GM) regions of interest (ROIs). Regional cerebral blood flow in the same ROIs was also assessed with arterial spin labeling. Results: The HV challenge led to a diminution of IVIM perfusion-related parameters, with a decrease of f and fD* in the cerebellum (P = 0.03 for f; P = 0.01 for fD*), thalamus GM (P = 0.09 for f; P = 0.01 for fD*), and lenticular nuclei (P = 0.03 for f; P = 0.02 for fD*). Mean GM cerebral blood flow (in mL/100 g tissue/min) measured with arterial spin labeling averaged over all ROIs also decreased (normoventilation: 42.7 ± 4.1 vs HV: 33.2 ± 2.2, P = 0.004) during the HV challenge. Conclusions: The optimized IVIM protocol proposed in the current study allows for measurements of cerebral hypoperfusion that might be of great interest for pathologies diagnosis such as ischemic stroke.

The patients were classified according to the criteria of the International Myeloma Working Group in eight non-symptomatic myelomas and 11 symptomatic myelomas. The sensitivity and the specificity of two methods of imaging were studied by retaining the presence or the absence of a diffuse infiltration (ID), focal lesions (FL), or both parameters (FL + ID), in both modalities of imaging. We compared the concordance between two techniques for every patient by using these signs using a weighted kappa test.ResultsThe performances of both modalities seem comparable, with superior diagnostic performances for the FL (Se = 100% and Sp = 75% in DWMRI and Se = 91% and Sp = 75% for 18FDG PET/CT). By combining both parameters, the 18FDG PET/CT seems more specific, but the sensitivity is comparable in both modalities (Se = 100% in MRI and Se = 100% in 18FDG PET/CT; Sp = 37% in DWMRI and Sp = 62% for 18FDG PET/CT). The concordance between both techniques is better by taking into account the FL than the other parameters (weighted kappa = 0.61 for FL, 0.5 for the FL + ID and 0.16 for ID alone).Conclusion Diagnostic performances of whole-body diffusion MRI and 18FDG PET/CT seem equivalent, but concordance between both techniques is imperfect. Further studies are necessary to understand this discrepancy.

In contrast, bone lytic lesions are common complications of multiple myeloma. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has improved the evaluation of bone involvement in multiple myeloma. Moreover MRI allows visualization of the medullary cavity and a direct assessment of the degree of myeloma cell infiltration before bone destruction becomes visible on plain radiographs. Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) probes the diffusion of water in the body. This sequence yields qualitative and quantitative information that reflects the tissue cellularity and cell membrane intregrity and thus complements morphological information obtained by conventional MRI. It shows considerable promise for detecting and characterizing tumors and evaluating treatment response. Objectiv...

Indexation also allows case reports to be transformed with no supplementary work into formats compatible with computer-assisted training. Indexation was performed automatically by ADM-Index, the aim being to identify the medical concepts expressed within each medical text. Two types of texts were indexed: medical imaging reference books (Edicerf) and case reports with illustrations and captions (Iconocerf). These documents are now available on a web server with HTML format for Edicerf and on an Oracle database for Iconocerf. When the user consults a chapter of a book or a case report, the indexed terms are displayed in the heading; all reference texts and case reports containing the indexed terms can then be called up instantaneously. The user can express his search in natural language. Indexation follows the same process allowing instantaneous recall of all reference texts and case reports where the same concept appears in the diagnosis or clinical context. By using the context of the case reports as the search index, all case reports involving a common medical concept can be found. The context is interpreted as a question. When the user responds to this question, ADM-Index compares this response with the answer furnished by the reference texts and case reports. Correct or erroneous responses can thus be identified, converting the system into a computer-assisted training tool.

Portal hemodynamics was assessed by scintisplenoportography and sonography, and the measurement of portohepatic gradient. Gradient between wedged and free hepatic venous pressures was 2.71 +/- 0.90 kPa (SD), and extrahepatic shunting was 49 +/- 31 p. 100 (SD) in 27 cirrhotic patients. Intrahepatic shunting was present in 17 p. 100 out of 23 cirrhotics. Portal blood flow was 0.582 +/- 0.196 l/min (SD) and hepatic resistance to portal blood flow was 4.84 +/- 2.62 kPa/l/min (SD). Portal blood flow correlated neither with the pressure gradient, nor with portosystemic shunting. The pressure gradient was significantly correlated with portal systemic shunting (r = 0.64, p less than 0.001). Hepatic resistance to portal blood flow was significantly (p less than 0.05) correlated with portal systemic shunting, however the value of the correlation coefficient was low (r = 0.433). The pressure gradient and portosystemic shunting were higher in patients with large esophageal varices than in those with small ones (respectively t = 2.665, p less than 0.02 and t = 3.00, p less than 0.01). Hemodynamic pattern was not correlated with the degree of hepatocellular failure, as assessed by the Child-Pugh index. In conclusion this study provides further evidence for the forward theory of portal hypertension in human liver cirrhosis.

A CT scan was done 4-6 days later. Lipiodol was retained by hepatic tumors in each case. This method emphasized the extension of the carcinoma and allowed to discover daughter tumors. I131-lipiodol was also injected in 4 of the 12 patients and then its biodistribution was evaluated. At the 6th hour after injection, I131-lipiodol was detected by scintigraphy over the liver (74-91 percent) and over the lungs (9-16 percent) only. The tumor to normal liver pixel count ratio was about 5. These results indicate that there is a preferential arterial blood flow towards the hepatic tumors, and that we can consider a therapeutic use of I131-Lipiodol in hepatocellular-carcinoma.
