Conventional and rapid MR imaging of the liver with Gd-DTPA.

Abstract:

:Twenty-three patients with malignant hepatic tumors underwent magnetic resonance (MR) imaging before and after intravenous administration of gadolinium-diethylene-triaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA). Two different doses were used, 0.1 mmol/kg and 0.2 mmol/kg. The larger dose proved to be more effective than the smaller dose. The signal-enhancement-to-noise ratio was significantly larger in the tumor than in the liver (2 alpha less than or equal to .05). In a moderately T1-weighted spin echo (SE) sequence (SE 400/30) (repetition time [TR] msec/echo time [TE] msec), the tumor was better defined 6 minutes after administration of Gd-DTPA. More strongly T1-weighted sequences--that is, SE 200/20 and inversion recovery 1,500/35/400 (TR msec/TE msec/inversion time, msec)--showed significantly worse contrast between tumor and liver (signal-difference-to-noise ratio [SD/N]) 10 and 15 minutes after administration (2 alpha less than or equal to .05). On the other hand, the low SD/N in the rapid MR imaging sequence was significantly improved (2 alpha less than or equal to .05). The most important indications for administration of Gd-DTPA in diagnosing hepatic tumors are the presentation of perfusion conditions and contrast optimization in rapid MR images.
