MRI of bladder cancer diagnosis and staging of.doc

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 14 MRI of bladder cancer diagnosis and staging of Abstract Objective: To investigate the MRI in the preoperative diagnosis of bladder cancer and staging of application value. Materials and Methods: 20 cases using 0.5T MRI scanner inspections by surgery and pathology confirmed bladder cancer, analysis of their MRI manifestations. Results: According to MRI will be divided into the tumor cavity type, infiltrating type and cavity shape. Preoperative MRI diagnosis and TNM staging in line with the rate of 80% (16/20), MRI compared with high pathological stage. Conclusion: T1-weighted images is mainly used for the qualitative diagnosis of tumors, T2-weighted images is mainly used for preoperative staging of tumor; MRI and pathological staging have a higher compliance. Keywords: bladder neoplasms Magnetic resonance imaging Diagnosis and staging of bladder cancer for the treatment of choice is very important. In China, reports of CT in this respect are more but the few reports of MRI. Collected in our hospital surgery and pathology were diagnosed as bladder cancer in 20 cases, signs of his MRI were retrospectively analyzed to further explore the preoperative MRI in bladder cancer diagnosis. 1 Materials and methods 1.1 General Information The group of 20 patients, 19 males and 1 female. Age 39 to 75 years old, with an average age of 64 -9.09. MRI scans were done 20 cases, all cases were confirmed by surgery and pathology, of which 12 cases of primary bladder cancer and recurrent in 8 cases (for the first time both transurethral fulguration surgery, partial damage small). 1.2 Inspection Method MR scan with Elscint produced 0.5T superconductive magnetic resonance imaging system, the patient left before the scan a little urine, without doing other preparations. Routinely axial and sagittal T1WI and T2WI scan and, if necessary supplemented by coronal. T1WI using SE sequence, TR of 450 ~ 500ms, TE20
