OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the diagnostic value of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-
MRI) for differentiating between benign and malignant tumors in the palate. MATERIALS …

High-resolution ultrasound (US), as a readily available, cost-effective and harmless imaging
technique, is appropriately the initial imaging modality for salivary gland lesions. Benign …

Objectives To determine added value of permeability MRI in parotid tumor characterization
to T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), semi-quantitative analysis of time-intensity curve (TIC), and …

Objective: To study the value of single and combined application of contrast-enhanced
computerized tomography (CT) and dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance …

Parotid tumor pathology is complex, involving a wide variety of benign and malignant
lesions that are hard to distinguish clinically. Indications for surgery depend on lesion …

Purpose The role of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the preoperative
differential diagnostics of parotid tumors is unclear. The aim of this study was to compare the …

This pictorial essay depicts MR features of benign and malignant parotid tumors. Increased
T2 signal intensity is suggestive of pleomorphic adenoma. Tumors with relatively low signal …

Purpose To investigate the diagnostic performance of histogram features of diffusion
parameters in characterizating parotid gland tumors. Method From December 2018 to …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Reliable preoperative visualization of facial
nerve morphology and understanding the spatial relationship between the facial nerve and …

Background Preoperative accurate characterization of parotid gland tumors in different
histologic types is crucial. T2 mapping has been proven to be useful for improving the …
