Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath: Magnetic resonance imaging findings in 38 patients.

The present study aimed to investigate the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath (GCTTS), including localized (L-) and diffuse (D-) types. A total of 38 patients with GCTTS, including 31 with L-GCTTS and 7 with D-GCTTS, diagnosed by surgery and pathology, were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent MRI examination.

[Cerebral lesions of DWI hyperintensity in patients with subacute stroke assessed by intravoxel incoherent motion technique].

Objective: To investigate the cerebral lesions of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) hyperintensity in patients with subacute stroke with intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) technique.

Methods: The clinical data of 20 patients with ischemic stroke (3 to 7 d after onset) who underwent DWI and IVIM scanning between June 2014 and July 2015, were retrospectively analyzed. The parameters from IVIM including slow diffusion coefficient (D), fast diffusion coefficient (D(*)) and perfusion fraction (f) were processed.
