Возможности Магнитно-Резонансной Томографии С Контрастированием В Диагностике Рака Легкого

Analysis of possibilities of low-field and high-field contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance tomography in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer. It has been shown that magnetic resonance tomography with contrast enhancement provides diagnosis of central and peripheral tumors of lungs with sensitivity over 95 % and specificity over 85 %. Also, the distribution of paramagnetic contrast in the tumor reflects distribution of viable tumor tissue and may be employed for the control of effectiveness of anticancer therapy
