Abstract:
:Fifty-one pediatric patients who were suspected of having central nervous system (CNS) tumors underwent magnetic resonance (MR) imaging using a 0.35 T Diasonics MT/S system. Pulse intervals (TR) ranged from 0.5 to 2.0 seconds with echo delays (TE) of 28 and 56 msec. The ability of MR and contrast-enhanced CT to detect focal lesions, determine lesion extent, and evaluate associated abnormalities was compared. In most patients in whom there was suspected spinal cord disease, comparison with myelography was made. Thirty-three intracranial lesions were detected with at least one imaging modality in 43 cranial examinations. MR was judged superior to CT in 14 of these cases and CT superior to MR in only one. Of eight spinal examinations, there were six that demonstrated abnormal findings. MR was superior to CT in all six cases and better than myelography in four of five cases where myelography was performed. Spin echo (SE) sequences with long pulse intervals were the most sensitive, but in some cases short pulse intervals permitted further characterization of the lesion. Patient motion was not a problem; sedation was routinely used in children younger than five years of age. MR imaging has rapidly become a valuable diagnostic modality in neuroradiology. The lack of ionizing radiation and the ability to evaluate the spinal cord noninvasively makes it particularly attractive in examination of children.
