- W75164076 abstract "This chapter discusses the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in adrenals and kidneys. MRI can depict normal and abnormal adrenal glands at a rate comparable to that of computed tomography (CT). As there is natural contrast between signal intensity of the gland and lack of signal from blood vessels, intravenous contrast medium is not needed to differentiate between the gland and adjacent veins. Although the spatial resolution of MRI is inferior to that of CT, and tiny adrenal lesions can go undetected, most significant adrenal masses are large enough to be readily detected with MRI. MRI is rarely the primary imaging modality for the evaluation of the kidneys. Intravenous urography and CT scanning with intravenous contrast medium have been the best methods for the evaluation of the collecting systems, for detection of renal masses, and for determination of renal functions. MRI has many such capabilities. It graphically displays the kidney and surrounding structures. Simple cysts can be differentiated from other masses because of smooth outline, thin uniform margins, sharp interface with renal parenchyma, homogeneous internal content, and prolonged relaxation times of a pure fluid. However, MRI has several potential advantages. No iodinated contrast medium is necessary to identify the main renal arteries and veins. This means that one can evaluate vascular patency in patients with poor renal function or contrast medium allergies, who would not ordinarily be candidates for contrast-enhanced CT." @default.
