Avaliação das lesões císticas da neurocisticercose na difusão e espectroscopia de prótons pela ressonância magnética / Evaluation of the cystic lesions of the neurocysticercosis on diffusion and magnetic resonance proton spectroscopy

Raffin, Luciana Sanchez 27 October 2004 (has links)
OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo é descrever as características do sinal nas lesões císticas da neurocisticercose nas imagens ponderadas em difusão e os metabólitos encontrados na espectroscopia de prótons. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Estudaram-se 38 pacientes (39 lesões) com neurocisticercose, usando-se difusão e espectroscopia de prótons. Os exames foram realizados em um magneto de 1,5 T (Signa Horizon LX: GE Medical Systems). A difusão foi realizada no plano axial, com múltiplos cortes com seqüência eco planar. A espectroscopia de prótons utilizou a seqüência PRESS (point-resolved spectroscopy) com TR of 1500 ms e TE de 30/135 ms. RESULTADOS: Os cistos apresentaram intensidade de sinal similar a do líquido cefalorraqueano (LCR) na difusão e valores de CDA sobreponíveis, variando de 1,36 a 3,18 x 10-3 mm2/s. Os picos detectáveis na espectroscopia foram lactato (96,3%), succinato (48%), alanina (40%), lipídeos (15%), aminoácidos citosólicos (7,5%) e acetato (3,7%). CONCLUSÃO: As lesões císticas da neurocisticercose apresentaram hipossinal na difusão e os picos encontrados na espectroscopia de prótons, em ordem decrescente de freqüência, foram lactato, succinato, alanina, lipídeos, aminoácidos citosólicos e acetato / PURPOSE: The objective of this study is to describe the signal behavior of cystic neurocysticercotic lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and single voxel proton spectroscopy findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 38 patients (39 lesions) with neurocysticercosis, using diffusion-weighted images and proton MR spectroscopy. The examinations were performed on a 1.5 T scanner (Signa Horizon LX: GE Medical Systems). DWI was performed in the axial plane, using a multisection single shot echo planar pulse sequence. The single voxel proton spectroscopy technique used was the point-resolved spectroscopy (PRESS) sequence with a TR of 1500 ms, short and long TE of 30/135 ms. RESULTS: The cysts presented similar signal intensity to the CSF on DWI, with comparable ADC values, ranging from 1.36 to 3.18 x 10-3 mm2/s. The detectable peaks were lactate (96.3%), succinate (48%), alanine (40%), lipids (15%), cytosolic amino acids (7.5%) and acetate (3.7%). CONCLUSION: The cysts of neurocysticercosis presented hyposignal on DWI and peaks of lactate, succinate, alanine, lipids, cytosolic amino acids and acetate in proton spectroscopy, in decreasing order of frequency
