Limited-sequence MRI clarifies murky pelvic ultrasound findings. (Benefits 97% of Cases).
CHICAGO -- In the majority of patients with indeterminant pelvic findings on ultrasound, limited-sequence MR imaging provides an optimal way to guide clinical management without incurring the costs of a full MRI examination, Dr. Silvia Chang said at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America.
Limited-sequence MRI of the pelvis is a quick, 20-minute exam that focuses on the axial plane for adnexal lesions and the sagittal plane for endometrial lesions, an approach that is especially helpful for stretching MRI resources when access is limited, explained Dr. Chang of Vancouver (B.C.) Hospital.
In what is believed to be the first study of its -kind, 100 patients aged 17-82 years underwent limited-sequence MRI to gain further information about indeterminant pelvic ultrasound findings at the hospital from 1997 to 2001. Exams were performed both transabdominally and transvaginally, All diagnoses wire confirmed either by surgical pathology or by ...
