Abstract:Purpose: To retrospectively compare the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-FDG-PET/CT (PET-CT) and WB-MRI with WB-DWI (WB-MRI) in various types of metastatic diseases.
Materials and methods:There were 26 patients who underwent WB-MRI and PET-CT within a period of one month. The WB-MRI protocols were: sagittal T1WI (Turbo Spin Echo) with TR/TE: 600/ 9.4 (msec), STIR with TR/ TE: 6000/85/240 (msec), coronal T1WI (FLASH) with TR/TE of 120/2.46 (msec) and axial DWI (b-0 and 800) based on STIR with TR/TE/TI of 14000/60/240… Show more
