    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le but du travail était d'essayer de préciser la nature des modifications de signal observées en IRM dans le tendon du m. supra-épineux en dehors de toute pathologie de l'épaule, et dûes, selon certains auteurs, à un artefact lié à l'IRM. Cinq tendons macroscopiquement normaux de m. supra-épineux ont été prélevés chez 4 patients jeunes (14 à 28 ans), 30 mn maximun après l'arrêt cardiaque, après autorisation du comité d'éthique. Ces tendons ont été examinés en IRM dans le plan frontal oblique suivant l'axe du muscle avec une antenne de surface de 4 cm de diamètre en utilisant une séquence écho de spin T2, puis ont été analysés en histologie en utilisant le même plan de coupe. Vingt-cinq sujets témoins (18 à 34 ans) ont été examinés en IRM avec la même séquence écho de spin T2. Tous les tendons de m. supra-épineux examinés possédaient un signal noir avec des zones de signal intermédiaire sur le premier écho de la séquence. Il existait une parfaite corrélation entre l'aspect en IRM des 5 tendons prélevés et leur description en histologie. Trois aspects histologiques ont été décrit: dégénérescence fibrillaire, dystrophie fibreuse, transformation éosinophile du collagène tendineux. Tous les tendons examinés chez les volontaires sains présentaient, au premier écho, des images hétérogènes; au second écho, l'hyposignal était homogène et franc. La bonne corrélation obtenue permet de suggérer que les modifications du signal du tendon du m. supra-épineux ne sont pas en rapport avec un artéfact décrit en IRM mais sont liés à une détérioration précoce de ce tendon, vraisemblablement liée à l'importance des contraintes mécaniques qu'il subit.
    Notes: Summary The aim of this study was to attempt to specify the nature of the signal modifications observed in MRI in the supraspinatus tendon apart from any pathology of the shoulder, and due, according to certain authors, to an artefact associated with MRI. Five macroscopically normal supraspinatus tendons were removed from 4 young subjects (14–28 years), 30 min after cardiac arrest, with the authorisation of the ethical committee. These tendons were examined by MRI in the frontal oblique plane along the axis of the muscle with a surface coil of 4 cm diameter, using a T2-weighted spin-echo sequence, and then studied histologically using the same plane of section. 22 control subjects (18–24 years) were examined by MRI with the same T2-weighted spinecho sequence. All the tendons examined possessed a dark signal with zones of intermediate signal on the first echo of the sequence. There was a complete correlation between the MRI appearances of the 5 tendons and their histologic description. Three histologic appearances were described: fibrillary degeneration, fibrous dystrophy, and eosinophil transformation of the tendinous collagen. All the tendons examined in healthy volunteers exhibited hetereogenic images at the first echo; in the second echo the hyposignal was uniform and obvious. The good correlation obtained suggests that modifications of the tendon signal from the supraspinatus m. are not related to an artefact described in MRI, but are linked with premature degeneration of this tendon, probably associated with the severity of the mechanical constraints to which it is subject.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'évaluation de la courbe de croissance oculaire permet d'envisager de nombreuses applications en pathologie oculo-orbitaire. une étude anatomique et en résonance magnétique a été réalisée pour évaluer la croissance oculaire. L'étude anatomique a permis de définir les meilleures séquences contrastées en résonance magnétique pour calculer une surface oculaire, puis la surface oculaire a été calculée dans le plan neuro-oculaire sur les résonances magnétiques foetales et d'enfants âgés de 0 à 13 ans. La courbe de croissance oculaire permet de mettre en évidence une phase de croissance rapide in utero et jusqu'à l'âge de 18 mois puis une phase de croissance lente. Cette technique de calcul permet d'obtenir une mesure en deux dimensions qui nous paraît complémentaire de l'échographie pour la recherche de certaines malformations.
    Notes: Summary The computation of eyeball growth has a wide field of applications in orbital and ocular pathology. An anatomic and MRI study to compute eyeball growth has been done. The anatomic study was made to determine the best MRI parameters to calculate the ocular surface; then this surface was computed by MRI in the neuro-ocular plane in fetuses and children aged from 0 to 13 years. The curve of eyeball growth shows rapid growth in utero and until 18 months, followed by a phase of slower growth. This method allows measurement in two dimensions, which we find complementary to ultrasound in the antenatal search for certain congenital malformations.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le but de ce travail a été de mettre au point une technique d'injection des plexus veineux vertébraux permettant des études anatomiques, tomodensitométriques et en résonance magnétique de la même pièce anatomique. Seul un mélange correctement dosé de différents produits permettait de réaliser cet objectif. Le mélange était composé de gélatine, de gadolinium et de minium. La description de la technique d'injection des plexus veineux vertébraux lombaires, les difficultés que nous avons rencontrées, les résultats des différentes techniques d'imagerie seront analysés dans cette étude sans entrer dans les détails de la description anatomique. Le corpus de cette étude est constitué de 11 sujets non embaumés : trois sujets ont été injectés avec de la gélatine mélangée à du gadolinium ; un sujet au latex mélangé à du minium ; un sujet au latex mélangé à du gadolinium et du minium ; 6 sujets à la gélatine mélangée à du gadolinium et du minium. Seul le mélange gélatine-gadolinium-minium a permis l'étude de la même pièce anatomique en anatomie, TDM et IRM. Deux séquences IRM différentes ont été décrites, témoignage des propriétés différentes des produits du mélange d'injection (gélatine, gadolinium). Le mélange latex-minium a donné une bonne densité en TDM mais n'a pas été favorable aux études en IRM. De nombreux artefacts ont parasité les images radiologiques, nécessitant une technique d'injection parfaite. L'utilisation de plusieurs techniques radiologiques pour une seule injection cadavérique permet une meilleure corrélation des images, la comparaison et la vérification des résultats entre les techniques.
    Notes: Summary The aim of this study was to develop a technique for injection of the vertebral venous plexuses allowing anatomic, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies of the same anatomic specimen. It proved in practice that only a correctly adjusted mixture of different agents allowed attainment of this objective. This mixture, composed of gelatin, gadolinium and minium, enabled us to attain this end. The description of the technique of injecting the vertebral venous plexuses, the difficulties encountered and the results of the different imaging techniques are analysed in this study without entering into details of the anatomic description. The core of the study consists of 11 unembalmed subjects. Three were injected with gelatin mixed with gadolinium, one with latex mixed with minium, one with latex mixed with gadolinium, and 6 with gelatin mixed with both gadolinium and minium. Only the mixture of gelatin — gadolinium — minium allowed study of the same anatomic specimen in terms of anatomy, CT and MRI. Two different MRI sequences are described, evidence of the different properties of the injection mixture (gelatin, gadolinium). The latex-minium mixture gave good CT density but was unsuitable for MRI studies. Numerous artifacts caused interference with the radiologic images, calling for perfect injection technique. The use of several radiologic techniques for a single cadaveric injection allows better correlation of the images, and comparison and verification of results between the techniques.

    Notes: Abstract To assess the morphology of the suspensory ligament of the ovary on CT scan examination, an anatomic study of the suspensory ligament of the ovary was performed to demonstrate its morphology on CT and to facilitate the visualization of the ovaries. Twelve female cadavers were studied after intravascular injection of latex (venous 2, arterial 6, arterio-venous 4). We first observed all the pelvises after their transection. Six dissections were then made to obtain optimal anatomic correlations on the content and relations of the infundibulo-pelvic ligament. The arterial opacifications were poor compared with to the good quality of the venous or arterio-venous opacifications. An upright correlation between CT slices and the anatomic study was made. This radio-anatomic study emphazises the importance of the veins, which really support the suspensory ligament of the ovary, as opposed to the involution of the arteries. This study points out the link between the infundibulo-pelvic ligament above and the utero-ovarian below, then with the superficial uterine vv. All these structures were well analyzed on CT and during the anatomic studies. A very well developed periovarian venous plexus which frequently concealed the ovaries was demonstrated. Some anatomic variations which were invisible on the CT scan examinations were displayed. The visualization of the suspensory ligament of the ovary should facilitate the visualization of the ovaries and could optimize the search for lymphadenopathies originating from ovarian cancers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Pour corréler les études tomodensitométrique (TDM) et anatomique du ligament suspenseur de l'ovaire pour en préciser son aspect en TDM et son rôle potentiel dans le repérage des ovaires, nous avons réalisé une étude radio-anatomique sur 12 cadavres féminins initialement étudiés par TDM après injection intra-vasculaire de latex (veineuse : 2, artérielle : 6, artérielle et veineuse : 4). L'observation initiale des pelvis après isolement des blocs pelviens puis la dissection de six sujets ont permis d'obtenir des corrélations anatomiques précises sur les rapports et le contenu du ligament suspenseur de l'ovaire. Les opacifications artérielles obtenues étaient de mauvaise qualité, par contre les injections veineuses ou artérielles et veineuses ont permis une bonne corrélation entre coupes TDM et l'ðude anatomique. Cela souligne l'importance du réseau veineux qui sous-tend réellement le ligament suspenseur de l'ovaire contrairement à l'involution artérielle notée habituellement. L'étude montre la continuité effective entre le ligament «infundibulo-pelvien» en haut et le ligament «utéroovarien» en bas prolongé par les veines utérines, structures parfaitement analysées en TDM. La fréquence du développement du plexus pampiniforme dans de nombreux cas masquant fréquemment les ovaires déja atrophiques est soulignée. Quelques variantes anatomiques non détectées en TDM ont pû être mises en évidence. La visualisation du ligament suspenseur de l'ovaire permet de faciliter le repérage de l'ovaire et pourrait optimiser la recherche d'adénopathies satellites des cancers ovariens.

    Notes: Abstract The larynx is an organ with a complex anatomic structure. MRI allows the performance of sections in the three planes of space, so that this study of the soft parts of the larynx yields results superior to those of other imaging techniques. Together with laryngoscopy, MRI is most often used in assessing the extension of malignant laryngeal tumors. This assessment is fundamental in choosing the indications for surgery, but the published reports of MRI of the larynx are sometimes discordant. The visualization of certain important anatomic structures such as the conus elasticus is uncertain. Our aim was to study the MRI radio-anatomy of the larynx based on correlations between MRI and histologic sections. Eight anatomic specimens were studied four in the transverse plane, two in the sagittal plane, and two in the frontal plane. The MRI and histologic sections made at the same levels were compared. These comparisons allowed a description of the sectional radio-anatomy of the larynx and an assessment of the reliability and limitations of MRI. All the major anatomic structures could be identified. It was possible to demonstrate the conus elasticus. We were able to visualize the vocal process of the arytenoid cartilage, which has not to our knowledge been previously described in the literature.
