[Magnetic resonance imaging of the penis. Its normal anatomy].

Objective: To estimate the capabilities of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify penile anatomic structures and their topographic relationships.

Material And Methods: Penile MRI results were analyzed in 52 men of different ages who had no history, clinical, laboratory, and radiological data in favor of diseases of this organ.

Results: Penile imaging technology and its algorithm, including patient preparation and posi-tioning and a list of impulse sequences and their parameters, are proposed.

[Magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of nonorganic hydatid disease].

This article evaluates MRI diagnostic value in discovering of the non-organic hydatid disease. MRI data of 21 patients, suffering from parasite pathology of liver (n = 12), liver and peritoneum cavity (n = 2), liver and retroperitoneal space (n = 2), liver and thigh's muscles (n = 1), peritoneum cavity (n = 2), retroperitoneal space (n = 1), spine and paravertebral area (n = 1) were analyzed. Based on histopathological results, features of unusually localized hydatid cysts (HC) MRI- semiotics are described in detail and compared with liver echinococcosis.
