    Notes: Abstract. Magnetic resonance mammography (MRM) provides data regarding the nature of tumours based on contrast medium dynamics; fibrocystic changes in the breast, however, may lead to false-positive results. This study investigated whether the contrast medium dynamics of fibrocystic changes are dependent on the menstrual cycle. Twenty-four patients with palpable lumps but normal mammographies and ultrasound studies were examined. The MRM technique was performed during the first and second part of the menstrual cycle using a FLASH 3D sequence, both native and at 1, 2, 3 and 8 min after intravenous application of 0.15 mmol/kg body weight of gadodiamide. The calculated time–intensity curves were evaluated based on the following criteria: early percentage of contrast medium uptake in relation to the native value; formation of a plateau phenomenon after the second minute; the point of maximal contrast medium uptake; and calculation of the contrast enhancing index. During the second half of the menstrual cycle, a generally greater contrast medium uptake was observed. Nevertheless, when further diagnostic criteria, such as continuous contrast medium increase as a function of time, were considered, there was no increased rate of false-positive findings. The phase of the menstrual cycle may affect the specificity of the examination, if only the quantitative contrast medium uptake and the percentage of contrast medium uptake in the first 2 min are considered. A control MRM during the other half of the cycle may then be indicated and additional diagnostic criteria may improve specificity.

    Notes: Summary. The aim of the trial was to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of iopentol (Imagopaque®, Nycomed Imaging AS, Oslo, Norway) and amidotrizoate (Peritrast®, Köhler Pharma, Alsbach, Germany), both 300 mg I/ml initially, but diluted to 2 % (v/v) and administered orally. Sixty-four and 65 patients were included in the respective contrast medium groups. Portions of contrast medium, totally 1.5 l, were taken every 15 min during the hour before the examination. A standard radiological procedure for abdominal CT was followed. Nine percent of the patients in each group experienced adverse events which were possibly contrast medium related. Taste acceptance was comparable in the two groups. Except for the stomach, radiographic efficacy was satisfactory for all intestinal segments. The difference in density in the proximal small bowel (main parameter) achieved with the media was not significant (p = 0.33), nor was that as regards image homogeneity (contrast distribution). In conclusion, iopentol is well suited for oral contrast enhancement of the gastrointestinal tract in abdominal computed tomography.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung. Wir berichten über unsere Erfahrungen an 3 Patientinnen mit einem solid-pseudopapillären Tumor des Pankreas. Charakteristisch für diesen semimalignen Tumor sind das Vorkommen bei jungen Frauen, die auffallende Größe (bis 10 cm) und das seltene Auftreten von Metastasen. Trotz erheblicher Größe der Tumoren war in allen Fällen eine kurative Resektion möglich. Präoperatives Hauptunterscheidungsmerkmal zum duktalen Adenocarcinom war in allen Fällen die normale Weite des Pankreasgangs ohne Gangabbruch. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten anderen Tumoren des Pankreas hat dieser Tumor eine gute Prognose. Alle unsere Patientinnen sind z. Z. (bis zu 8 Jahren nach der Operation) rezidivfrei.
    Abstract: Schlüsselwörter: Solid-pseudopapillärer Tumor – Pankreas – papillär-cystischer Tumor
    Notes: Summary. We report on three female patients with solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas. The histogenetic origin of this entity is still unclear. The tumor, usually occurring in young women, forms large masses (up to 10 cm in diameter) before becoming symptomatic. Metastases have very rarely been reported. In contrast to other pancreatic tumors, the main pancreatic duct was displaced, but of normal caliber without stenosis, in all our patients. Despite the large size of the tumors, they were curatively resected in all three cases. Two of the tumors infiltrated the parenchyma or adipose tissue of the pancreas but did not spread into the lymph nodes or other organs. All of the patients are alive and without signs of tumor recurrence up to 8 years after surgical resection.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of this study was evaluation of MRI alone and in combination with mammography and galactography in the diagnosis of intraductal papillomas. From 1994 to 1998, a total of 48 women presenting with pathologic mammary secretion underwent galactography and magnetic resonance mammography (MRM). Thirty-five patients aged 16–71 years (average age 46 years) subsequently underwent surgery or diagnostic puncture and the histologic findings were compared with the results of the radiologic examination. Histology revealed papillomas in 16 cases. In 6 of these patients, there was associated malignant degeneration. Malignancy without associated papilloma was observed in 3 cases. Galactography displayed a sensitivity of 94 % and a specificity of 79 % with five false-positive findings and one false-negative finding in the recognition of intraductal papillomas. Malignant processes were detected by mammography/galactography in only one instance. Magnetic resonance mammography visualized pathologic contrast medium uptake in 8 of 9 cases of malignant disease (sensitivity 89 %). One patient with in situ ductal carcinoma escaped detection with MRM. Papillomas showed no or below-the-threshold-lying contrast uptakes with no specific sign suggestive of papilloma. Galactography in combination with mammography remains the primary diagnostic procedure in cases of pathologic mammary secretion or suspected papilloma. The addition of MRI permits exclusion of malignant disease with a high degree of certainty; thus, expectant management in individual cases with negative findings appears justified.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Objective: Determination of the proportion of the dose-area product caused by fluoroscopy at voiding cystourethrography in children, using digital image intensifier technology. Patients and methods: Using computer-assisted dosimetry, we determined the dose-area product and the respective proportions of the dose-area product caused by fluoroscopy and radiography as well as the number of radiographs taken at a given examination of 40 children (8 children less than 2 years old, 15 children between 2 and 6 years old and 17 children between 6 and 15 years old). Results: The computer software program correctly differentiated between fluoroscopy and radiography in 80 % of cases. Incorrect results were primarily observed in newborns and young children. The total radiation dose ranged in relation to patient age from 22 to 651 cGy × cm2. Fluoroscopy was responsible for an average 78 % of the applied radiation dose. Conclusion: Computer-assisted dosimetry is useful in determining the proportion of the dose-area product caused by fluoroscopy in older children undergoing voiding cystourethrography. When image intensifier technology is used, this accounts for more than 75 % of the total radiation dose. The method is not suitable for use in small children.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Ziel: Bestimmung des Anteils der Durchleuchtung am Gesamtflächendosisprodukt beim Kindermiktionszysturethrogramm in digitaler Bildverstärkertechnik. Material und Methode: Bei 40 Kindern (8 Kinder 〈 2 Jahre, 15 Kinder zwischen 2 und 6 Jahren und 17 Kinder zwischen 6 und 15 Jahren) wurden PC-gestützt die Anzahl der Zielaufnahmen, deren Anteil am Gesamtflächendosisprodukt sowie der durchleuchtungsbedingte Anteil am Gesamtflächendosisprodukt ermittelt. Ergebnisse: In 80 % der Fälle ermöglichte der Einsatz des Computerprogramms eine korrekte Differenzierung zwischen Fluoroskopie und Radiographie. Falsche Ergebnisse fanden sich hauptsächlich bei Neugeborenen und Kleinkindern. Die Gesamtstrahlenbelastung variierte abhängig vom Patientenalter zwischen 22 und 651 cGy × cm2, durchschnittlich betrug der Anteil der Durchleuchtung 78 %. Schlußfolgerung: PC-gestützt ist es möglich den Anteil der Durchleuchtung am Gesamtflächendosisprodukt bei älteren Kindern, die sich einem Miktionszysturethrogramm unterziehen, zu ermitteln. Dieser beträgt bei Verwendung der digitalen Bildverstärkertechnik mehr als 75 %. Bei Neugeborenen und Kleinkindern versagt die Methode.
