The purpose of our study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of hybrid MR angiography by comparison with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in diabetic patients with critical limb ischemia.Thirty-one patients prospectively underwent both hybrid MR angiography and DSA. The hybrid MR angiography study consisted of high-resolution MR angiography of a single calf and foot using a contrast-enhanced 3D gradient-echo volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination with surface coils, followed by three-station bolus chase MR angiography with a dedicated peripheral vascular coil. Two blinded reviewers separately analyzed maximum-intensity-projection hybrid MR angiograms and DSA images. The peripheral vessels were divided into 10 anatomic segments for review. The status of each segment was graded as normal, stenosis less than 50% in diameter, stenosis greater than 50%, or occluded. The sensitivity and specificity of hybrid MR angiography were determined using DSA as the gold standard. Treatment options were considered separately from the results of each examination.Among 310 analyzed segments, the sensitivities of hybrid MR angiography for stenosis and occlusion were, respectively, 95% and 95% for reviewer 1 and 96% and 90% for reviewer 2. The specificities of hybrid MR angiography for stenosis and occlusion were, respectively, 98% and 98% for reviewer 1 and 98% and 99% for reviewer 2. In 25 patients (81%), the quality of bolus chase MR angiography images was insufficient to assess runoff arteries. All treatments proposed on the basis of DSA findings were endorsed by hybrid MR angiography findings. Eleven more treatments were formulated on the basis of hybrid MR angiography findings. Of these, four were due to overestimation of stenosis on MR angiography and seven were due to the detection of patent infrageniculate arteries on hybrid MR angiography that were not detected on DSA.Hybrid MR angiography depicts runoff arteries not seen on DSA. Hybrid MR angiography may be useful for treatment planning in selected diabetic patients with critical limb ischemia.

The identification of dilatations of the intrahepatic bile ducts in the absence of bile duct obstruction is rare. Imaging techniques, especially MR cholangio-pancreaticography, generally permit the distinction between fibrocystic liver diseases and polycystic liver diseases. The presence of dilated sacciform or tubular bile ducts on cholangio-pancreaticography associated with a centrally located fibrovascular bundle (central dot sign) suggests Caroli's syndrome. The presence of associated signs of liver dysmorphia including right lobe atrophy and hypertrophy of segment IV suggests associated congenital hepatic fibrosis. The findings on cholangio-pancreaticography, computerized tomography or Doppler ultrasonography correlate well with the pathogenesis of fibrocystic liver diseases, linked to an embryologic malformation of the ductal plate.

To quantitatively analyze placental perfusion by using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with contrast agents in a mouse model.Study was conducted according to French law and in full compliance with National Institutes of Health recommendations for animal care. Thirty-six pregnant Balb/c mice at 16 days of gestation were injected intravenously with either a conventional or macromolecular gadolinium chelate, and 1.5-T single-section T1-weighted two-dimensional fast spoiled gradient-echo sequential MR imaging was then performed for 14 minutes. Images were analyzed qualitatively, and parametric map analysis was performed in the resultant 25 mice included in the study. Signal intensity was measured in maternal left ventricle (input function), placenta, and fetus on all images. After converting signal intensity into contrast agent tissue concentrations, a three-compartment model was developed with compartmental and numeric modeling software. Placental perfusion was calculated for conventional (n = 12) and macromolecular (n = 13) gadolinium chelates. Finally, placental and fetal gadolinium concentrations were assayed by means of atomic emission spectrophotometry (n = 15). Perfusion values and placental and fetal gadolinium concentrations for conventional and macromolecular chelates were compared by using an unpaired t test.Based on a constant transfer parameter, estimated placental perfusion did not differ between procedures with conventional and macromolecular gadolinium chelates (0.99 mL/min/g +/- 0.5 [standard deviation] and 1.28 mL/min/g +/- 0.6, respectively, P = .22). Likewise, mean placental gadolinium concentrations did not differ after injection of conventional and macromolecular chelates. In contrast, mean fetal gadolinium concentration was 9.83 micromol/L after conventional chelate injection and below detection limit after macromolecular chelate injection.Placental perfusion can be calculated by using dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging, as shown in this mouse model.

Introduction A Fast-kVp Switching (FKS) dual-energy and a routine adaptative iterative reconstruction (Adaptative Statistical Iterative Reconstruction, ASIR, GE Healthcare®) single-energy abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) protocols have been designed for hepatocellular carcinomas detection. Previous studies have shown that FKS exams can deliver a higher dose than standard exam with comparable image quality. This study aims to evaluate the dose delivered to patient exposed to these CT protocols. Material and methods Ten patients with 31 hepatocellular carcinomas underwent FKS dual-energy (80–140 kV; 630 mA, rotation time: 0.5 s pitch: 1.375) and single-energy abdominal contrast materialenhanced (120 kV, 150–650 mA, rotation time: 0.7 s pitch: 1.375, ASIR 50%, FBP 50%) CT exams with liver-arterial and portal venous phases. For each exam, image quality was judged qualitatively and quantitatively on arterial phase by radiologists. Radiation dose, based on Volume CT Index (CTDIVOL) and Dose Length Product (DLP) was reported using a Dose Archiving and Communication System (DACS) (DoseWatch, GE HealthCare®). Since only single energy abdominal protocol uses Automatic Exposure Control (AEC), all the results were classified according to patients Body Mass Index (BMI). Results Image quality, allowed the identification of 94% (29/31) of HCC nodules with adaptative iterative reconstruction single-energy exam and 97% (30/31) with FKS dual-energy protocol. A CTDIVOL of 13 mGy and a mean DLP of 393 mGy.cm were determined for the dual energy protocol whathever BMI. Whereas, for the routine exam, mean CTDIVOL and DLP were 7 mGy, 215 mGy cm; 14 mGy, 454 mGy cm and 18 mGy, 783 mGy cm for BMIs less than 20, of 20–25 and greater than 25 BMI, respectively. Conclusion FKS dual-energy and adaptative iterative reconstruction single-energy abdominal CT protocols can be optimized so as to deliver a radiation dose lower than swiss dose reference level (15 mGy, 500 mGy cm) without neglecting image quality. Current FKS dual energy protocol could be optimized since it now uses adaptive iterative reconstruction. Moreover, it could be adapted to low BMI patients.

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of pre-procedural arterial phase computed tomography image fusion with intra-procedural fluoroscopy (or Image fusion: IF) road-mapping in endovascular repair of thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm (EVRTAAA) compared to current road-mapping methods (2D and 3D angiographies) in terms of x-ray exposure, injected contrast volume, and procedure time. Materials and Methods Single-institution prospective study (Internal institute approved), on 37 patients, informed written consent provided, and treated for EVRTAAA. All interventions were performed on the same angiographic system. Patients were consecutively placed in three groups in a seven-month period: “2D angiography” (2DA) (9 patients), “3D rotational angiography” (3DA) (14 patients), and “image fusion” (IF) (14 patients). Injected contrast volume, x-ray exposure (dose-area-product: DAP), and procedure time were recorded. To compare the groups in terms of the above measures and general patient characteristics, statistical tests using Fisher’s Exact, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney were performed. Results Patient characteristics and stenting types were similar between all three groups with no statistically significant differences (p-value>0.05). The IF group showed significant reduction (p-value Conclusion Image fusion road-mapping for EVRTAAA is feasible, and is associated to a statistically significant reduction in contrast volume and a trend towards DAP reduction while maintaining similar procedure time.

All cases of hepatocellular carcinoma reported thus for in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis have occurred on preexisting cirrhosis. We report the case of a 68-Year-old male patient with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis who developed hepatocellular carcinoma in the absence of cirrhosis. This observation suggests a possible relationship between nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and/or excess body weight, and hepatocellular carcinoma independent of cirrhosis. Further epidemiological studies are needed to evaluate the incidence of this association.

This study was designed to compare tumor enhancement by superparamagnetic iron oxide particles, using anionic iron oxide nanoparticles (AP) and ferumoxtran. In vitro, relaxometry and media with increasing complexity were used to assess the changes in r2 relaxivity due to cellular internalization. In vivo, 26 mice with subcutaneously implanted tumors were imaged for 24 h after injection of particles to describe kinetics of enhancement using T1 spin echo, T2 spin echo, and T2 fast spin echo sequences. In vitro, the r2 relaxivity decreased over time (0–4 h) when AP were uptaken by cells. The loss of r2 relaxivity was less pronounced with long (Hahn Echo) than short (Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill) echo time sequences. In vivo, our results with ferumoxtran showed an early T2 peak (1 h), suggesting intravascular particles and a second peak in T1 (12 h), suggesting intrainterstitial accumulation of particles. With AP, the late peak (24 h) suggested an intracellular accumulation of particles. In vitro, anionic iron oxide nanoparticles are suitable for cellular labeling due to a high cellular uptake. Conversely, in vivo, ferumoxtran is suitable for passive targeting of tumors due to a favorable biodistribution.

The lymphatic system is anatomically complex and difficult to image. Lymph ducts are responsible for the drainage of part of the body's interstitial fluid. Lymph nodes account for the enrichment of lymph fluid, and can be involved in a large variety of diseases, especially cancer. For a long time, lymphatic imaging was limited to the sole use of conventional lymphography involving invasive procedures and patient discomfort. New contrast agents and techniques in ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and MR imaging are now available for imaging of both the lymphatic vessels and the lymph nodes. The objective of this review is to discuss the different imaging modalities of the lymphatic system, with a special focus on the new possibilities of lymphatic imaging including enhanced MR lymphography, sentinel node and positron emission tomography imaging, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major health problem worldwide [1], which continues to increase because of viral hepatitis B and C epidemics, but also because of alcoholic [2] and non-alcoholic liver disease. HCC develops mainly in cirrhotic livers (85–95%). In other cases, the surrounding liver is diseased and fibrous, though in some cases, the surrounding liver can be normal. In contrast to HCC associated with the cirrhotic liver, non-cirrhotic HCC (NC-HCC) predominantly occurs in young and healthy females with a peak incidence in the fourth decade. NC-HCCs are frequently diagnosed at a late stage, with large tumours (8–14 cm in many series). The preserved liver function allows extensive liver resections: up to 80% of the normal functional liver volume. The 5-year overall survival rates after liver resection for NC-HCC range from 25% to 81% with a tumourrecurrence rate of 30–73% [3]. Liver resection, thus, is currently the best first-line therapy for NC-HCC. However, the use of liver transplantation (LT) in this setting has been recently discussed in connection with unresectable HCC or because of tumour recurrence following initial resection. In HCC that occurs within a cirrhotic liver, LT is theoretically the best treatment, removing both the tumour nodules and the underlying liver cirrhosis. However, post-LT survival can be hampered by the risk of tumour recurrence, which can lead rapidly to death [4]. For this reason, LT for HCC must be considered carefully, and preferably offered when there is a reasonable risk of tumour recurrence after LT. Because LT is also an excellent treatment for end-stage liver cirrhosis and because organs from deceased donors are limited, their use should be equitable and fair. An international consensus conference regarding LT for HCC has been recently published [5] and emphasises that each indication must have a comparable result, or if not, must cause no undue prejudice to other recipients with a better prognosis.

Background: Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver is a benign hepatic lesion relatively common in women. No studies specifically designed to describe the presentation and imaging findings in males have been published. Aims: The aims of this study were: (a) to describe the clinical and imaging findings in 18 men with FNH, and (b) to compare these data with those observed in 216 women with FNH observed during the same nine year period. Patients and methods: According to a final diagnosis of FNH assessed either by pathological examination or by magnetic resonance (MR), the medical charts of 18 men with FNH observed at our institution were reviewed. In order to compare clinical and MR presentations, the files of 216 women with a total of 291 FNH lesions, investigated during the same nine year period, were reviewed. Results: Eighteen FNH lesions, with a mean diameter of 37.5 mm, were demonstrated in the 18 male patients. A total of 291 lesions with a mean diameter of 63.4 mm were comparatively demonstrated in 216 female patients. Mean age at diagnosis was significantly higher in men (p

Whole body (WB) imaging plays an essential role in the management of lymphoma patients, including defining the full extent of the disease at baseline, allowing for an accurate staging and therefore an adapted treatment strategy, assessing treatment response and detecting relapse. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) has long been the imaging technique most commonly used for staging and follow up of malignant lymphoma, using International Working Group (IWG) criteria [1]. However, CT lacks functional and metabolic information, compromising identification of disease in non-enlarged lymph nodes or other organs, as well as sufficient contrast in certain organs as for example the spleen or bone marrow. In 2007, IWG response criteria were revised, incorporating Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with 18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) information [2], thus combining metabolic information and anatomical data of the CT resulting in a higher accuracy than the both imaging modalities taken separately [3]. Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DW-MRI) probes noninvasively the random microscopic motion of water molecules in the body, reflecting cellularity and cell membrane integrity. Because of their high cellularity and high nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio, lymphomas have a lower apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) than other tumors [4]. WB-DW-MRI allows both anatomical information, as well as functional and quantitative evaluation of tumor sites, thanks to the extraction of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). At staging, lymphoma lesions have low ADC value except necrotic areas. Recent studies comparing whole-body DWI to PET-CT have demonstrated the potential role of whole-body DWI in routine lymphoma patient care but included only a small number of patients. Using the DWIBS technique (diffusion weighted imaging with background body signal suppression), Abdulqadhr et al. compared whole-body DWI and PET/CT at staging with an agreement in the Ann Arbor stage for 90.3% of patients [5]. Based on ADC analysis, Lin et al showed an agreement at baseline in 93% of patients [4]. Response assessment is necessary during therapy to readapt treatment strategy if necessary, and to document a complete remission at the end of treatment. After treatment, an increase in ADC value of residual masses has been demonstrated [6]. Recent technical breakthroughs in MRI technology such as echo-planar imaging (EPI), high gradient amplitudes, combined phased-array surface coils covering the patient, and parallel imaging, have drastically improved patient comfort and acceptance for whole body MRI [7,8], making this technique feasible in clinical routine, illustrating the need for radiologists to get familiar with this technique. As a result, WB-DW-MRI with ADC mapping has become a promising tool for lymphoma staging and re-staging, and response assessment. Based on our 4-years experience with WB-DW-MRI applied in Hodgkin and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients together with 18FDG-PET/CT, our objective is to offer radiologists the information required to optimize acquisition whole body DWI parameters on both 1.5 and 3T MR systems. We will expose the spectrum of imaging findings and discuss the pitfalls, limitations, and potential challenges of WB-DW-MRI in caring for lymphoma patients.

Objectifs Determiner la valeur des images classees suspectes ipsi ou controlaterales en IRM pre-operatoire dans le carcinome lobulaire infiltrant (CLI). Materiels et methodes Etaient incluses retrospectivement les patientes avec CLI documente histologiquement entre 2004 et 2007, ayant ete explorees par IRM mammaire bilaterale en pre-operatoire et ayant ete traitees par mastectomie bilaterale, suivant les recommandations actualisees de la Society of Surgical Oncology SSO 2007. La confrontation lesion par lesion des donnees de l’IRM pre-operatoire (BI-RADS 2006) a l’analyse anatomo-pathologique de la mastectomie bilaterale etait etudiee. Resultats Parmi 152 patientes traitees pour un carcinome lobulaire infiltrant, 16 (âge moyen 52 ans, 38-66 ans) ont ete incluses. Un total de 60 images suspectes ont ete detectees en IRM, incluant 43 masses, 17 non-masses. En IRM, 40 lesions IRM ipsilaterales et 20 lesions controlaterales suspectes (BIRADS = 4) etaient detectees incluant des lesions a rehaussement progressif (50 %), en plateau (23 %) ou avec washout (27 %). En anatomo-pathologie, 32 lesions tumorales infiltrantes etaient identifiees incluant 30 lesions ipsi et 2 lesions controlaterales (VPP de l’IRM de 53 %-72 % en ipsilateral et 10 % en controlateral). Conclusion La majorite des lesions ipsilaterales suspectes en IRM correspond a des lesions infiltrantes. A contrario, la plupart des lesions controlaterales classees suspectes ne correspondent pas a des foyers tumoraux, pouvant alors orienter vers une strategie diagnostique alternative.

Objectifs Connaitre l’anatomie cardiaque et la physiologie de la contraction myocardique. Connaitre les sequences permettant d’etudier la contraction myocardique. Savoir analyser une sequence de perfusion au repos et sous stress pharmacologique. Points cles La contraction myocardique associe un double raccourcissement (circonferentiel et longitudinal), un epaississement radial et une rotation du ventricule gauche. Les sequences b SSFP apprecient essentiellement l’epaississement radial. Les sequences de tagging permettent d’etudier les autres composantes de la contraction. L’etude de la perfusion necessite des sequences ultrarapides qui peuvent etre couplees a l’injection d’agents pharmacologiques. Resume La systole myocardique s’accompagne d’un mouvement de torsion du ventricule gauche qui accroit l’efficacite hemodynamique de la contraction. Ce mouvement de torsion est lie en partie a la disposition en double helice des fibres myocardiques. L’analyse incomplete de la contraction sur les sequences b SSFP peut etre affinee avec des sequences de tagging qui etudient la deformation de bandes de saturation intramyocardiques au cours du cycle cardiaque. D’autres sequences sont en developpement comme l’imagerie en tenseur de diffusion qui exploite le caractere anisotropique des cardiomyocytes. L’etude de la perfusion beneficie souvent de l’injection d’agents vasodilatateurs afin de detecter la baisse de la reserve coronaire. Des sequences ultrarapides type EPI sont les plus adaptees pour etudier la perfusion. Leur analyse est le plus souvent visuelle. Les images de perfusion doivent etre comparees aux resultats des sequences de rehaussement tardif.

Objectifs Developper et valider une sequence de diffusion a b faibles pour estimer les valeurs de la composante rapide du coefficient de diffusion au niveau de la zone peripherique chez des patients presentant un cancer de la prostate. Materiels et methodes Une sequence de diffusion EPI, avec des valeurs de b faibles incrementes par pas de 10 s/mm2, a ete developpee sur une IRM 1,5T et appliquee chez 30 patients presentant un cancer de la prostate prouve par biopsie. Les coefficients de Diffusion D, Diffusion rapide D*, ont ete calcules en appliquant la formule S/ S0 = C (1-f) exp (-bD) +fexp (-b (D+D*)) dans les zones en hyposignal T2 et les zones normales. Les valeurs moyennes ont ete calculees et comparees entre zones d’hyposignal et zones normales (student t-test). Sur les 30 pieces de prostatectomie radicale, l’immuno-marquage CD31a permis de quantifier la densite vasculaire (DV). Resultats La decroissance du signal sur la sequence EPI etait bi-exponentielle chez tous les patients permettant de valider l’extraction de D*. Une augmentation significative de D* etait retrouvee dans les zones d’hyposignal T2 33,5. 10-3 mm2/s versus 10,9.10-03 mm2/s (p = 0,003). Une augmentation significative de DV etait retrouvee en anathomopathologie dans les zones tumorales 2,15 % versus 1,1 % (p = 0,039). Conclusion La diffusion a faibles valeurs b semble constituer une approche indirecte de la perfusion prostatique.

Objectifs Evaluer l’efficacite d’une etude par ARM en deux temps dans la prise en charge des ischemies arterielles stade IV du diabetique. Materiels et methodes Trente et un patients diabetiques, en ischemie arterielle stade IV, ont ete etudies consecutivement par ARM. Le protocole comprenait une etude de la jambe symptomatique par une sequence V. I. B. E avec injection puis une etude globale des membres avec injection et deplacement de table. Une arteriographie a ete realisee dans les 48 heures. Apres segmentation du reseau arteriel en 10 regions, un chirurgien vasculaire (CV) et un radiologue vasculaire (RV) ont lu en aveugle separement les ARM et les arteriographies et propose un traitement. Resultats La sensibilite de l’ARM est de 95 % dans la detection de stenose et de 94 % dans les thromboses pour le CV, alors qu’elles sont respectivement de 96 % et 90 % pour le RV. Pour le CV, la specificite est de 98 % pour les stenoses et 99 % pour les thromboses et respectivement 98 % et 99 % pour le RV. L’ARM a detecte sept vaisseaux accessibles a un traitement de plus que l’arteriographie. Conclusion Une ARM en deux temps peut remplacer l’arteriographie comme premier bilan des ischemies arterielles stade IV du diabetique.

Objectifs pedagogiques Exposer les axes de recherche en imagerie oncologique concernant en particulier l’imagerie corps entier et l’imagerie par ciblage des recepteurs membranaires. Resume Le champ d’etude de l’imagerie s’est grandement etendu ces dernieres annees. Nous nous proposons d’exposer rapidement ici les principales pistes de recherche actuelles en imagerie du cancer. Il existe un essor de l’imagerie dans 2 directions opposees mais complementaires : - Imagerie du corps entier : La prise en charge des patients en oncologie fait desormais appel a des techniques d’imageriepermettant un staging tumoral en 1 temps. Nous detaillerons ici les performances actuelles de la TEP au Fluoro-Deoxy Glucose (TEP-FDG) couplee au scanner et verrons les perspectives offertes par l’IRM corps entier. - Imagerie de la cellule tumorale par l’intermediaire du developpement de nouvelles strategies de ciblage. Nous exposerons brievement les concepts de ce ciblage tumoral avant de detailler quelques approches novatrices. Au total, c’est bien un grand ecart que realise l’imagerie en oncologie. Grand ecart par la diversite des techniques utilisees, de la scintigraphie a l’IRM cellulaire. Grand ecart dans le champ de vue de l’imagerie oncologique depuis l’imagerie en 1 temps du corps entier jusqu’a l’imagerie de l’expression genique.

Abstract 5143 The RVD regimen has shown a promising activity in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM). In the present study, we report preliminary results on 14 patients in first relapse after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) treated by VRD followed by a maintenance treatment with revlimid-dexamethasone (Rev-dex) in responder-patients. Treatment was as follows: RVD included lenalidomide 15 mg per day (d) d1 through d14, bortezomib 1 mg/m2 on d1,4,8 and 11 and dexamethasone 20 mg on d1,2,4,5,8,9,11 and 12 of 21-d cycles with the objective to deliver at least 6 cycles. A maintenance treatment by Rev-dex with lenalidomide 25 mg d1 to d21 plus dexamethasone 20 mg weekly of d-28 cycles, delivered until progression was planned in patients achieving at least partial response to RVD. Patients' characteristics at relapse: median age was 65 years (range 59 to 70), median time to relapse following ASCT before RVD was 26 months (range 4 to 86). All pts were naive for lenalinomide and 8 for bortezomib. Translocation t(4;14) was observed in 4 patients and was associated with del(17p13) in one case. Patients received a median number of 6 cycles of RVD (range 3 to 8). Overall response rate was 71% and 43% of the patients achieved very good partial or better response. Discontinuation of RVD was due to disease progression in 4 cases. During RVD treatment, 4 patients (29%) experienced grade 3–4 adverse events: neutropenia n =2, thrombocytopenia n=1, thrombosis n=1. Following RVD, 10 patients received Rev-dex maintenance. With a median follow-up of 15 months (range 6 to 29), 11 patients are alive free of evolutive disease. Four patients progressed during VRD: one with solitary plasmocytoma was efficiently treated by radiotherapy, the 3 other patients received anthracycline or platin based regimens but were refractory and 2 of them died. One patient progressed during maintenance and was efficiently treated by melphalan-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone. Among the 4 patients with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities, one CR, one PR and 2 progressions were observed during RVD. The first patient remains in CR 16 months after the beginning of salvage treatment. Conclusion: RVD followed by Rev-dex maintenance is a promising therapeutic option in MM patients in first relapse after ASCT with low toxicity profile. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

International audience; There are very few methods to investigate how nanoparticles (NPs) are taken up and processed by cells in the organism in the short and long terms. We propose a nanomagnetism approach, in combination with electron microscopy, to document the magnetic outcome of iron oxide-based P904 NPs injected intravenously into mice. The NP superparamagnetic properties are shown to be modified by cell internalization, due to magnetic interactions between NPs sequestered within intracellular organelles. These modifications of magnetic behaviour are observed in vivo after NP uptake by resident macrophages in spleen and liver or by inflammatory macrophages in adipose tissue as well as in vitro in monocyte-derived macrophages. The dynamical magnetic response of cell-internalized NPs is theoretically and experimentally evidenced as a global signature of their local organization in the intracellular compartments. The clustering of NPs and their magnetism become dependent on the targeted organ, on the dose administrated and on the time elapsed since their injection. Nanomagnetism probes the intracellular clustering of iron-oxide NPs and sheds light on the impact of cellular metabolism on their magnetic responsivity.

To compare posttreatment bone marrow changes at whole-body dynamic contrast material-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with clinical response in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and to determine if this technique can be used to assess treatment response in patients with MM.This study was approved by an institutional review board; all patients gave informed written consent. Thirty patients (21 men, nine women; mean age, 58 years +/- 10 [standard deviation]) underwent whole-body dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging before treatment, after induction chemotherapy (n = 30), and after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) (n = 20). Maximal percentages of bone marrow (BME(max)) and focal lesion (FLE(max)) enhancement were assessed at each MR imaging examination. Clinical responses were determined on the basis of international uniform response criteria. Posttreatment changes in BME(max)and FLE(max)were compared with clinical response to therapy by using the Mann-Whitney U test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis of posttreatment BME(max)was used to identify poor responders.Eleven of 30 patients were good responders to induction chemotherapy; 16 of 20 patients were good responders to ASCT. After induction chemotherapy, mean BME(max)differed between good and poor responders (94.3% vs 138.4%, respectively; P = .02). With the exclusion of results from six examinations with focal lesions in which a poor clinical response was classified but BME(max)had normalized, a posttreatment BME(max)of more than 96.8% had 100% sensitivity for the identification of poor responders (specificity, 76.9%; area under the ROC curve, 0.90; P = .0001). Mean FLE(max)after induction chemotherapy did not differ between good and poor responders. Mean timing (ie, the number of postcontrast dynamic acquisitions where FLE(max)was observed) was significantly delayed in good responders compared with poor responders (4.7 vs 2.9, P.0001). Post-ASCT MR imaging results correctly depicted all four clinically good responders whose disease subsequently progressed.With quantitative analysis of BME(max)and the timing of FLE(max), whole-body dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging can be used to assess treatment response in patients with MM.

Abstract 4615 INTRODUCTION Long-term blood transfusion is essential for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) in case of cerebral vasculopathy, organ dysfunction, leg ulcer, failure or intolerance of hydroxyurea treatment. Secondary iron overload is a factor of morbidity and mortality by organ damage. In practice, three chelators are available: deferoxamine (DFO) which is administrated by subcutaneous infusion and therefore source of poor compliance in SCD. Deferasirox (DFX), the new oral chelator is the first line therapy since 2007. Deferiprone (DFP) is an option when DFX or DFO are contraindicated or inadequate. However, DFP has no approval for SCD. The purpose of this study is to describe the characteristics of SCD patients treated by DFP. METHODOLOGY The patients included in this study arise from the group of the patients with long-term blood transfusion by manual exchange in Henri Mondor's SCD center, and in whom iron overload is treated by DFP. The monitoring of iron overload is obtained by regular serum ferritin level, combined liver and heart MRI. Only one iron measure by MRI is available for each patient throughout the study. RESULTS Nine patients (8 SS and 1 Sβ0thal) are included: 5 men and 4 women. The mean age is 44.2 years (22 to 64 years). The median duration of chronic transfusion is 10 years (4 to 27 years). The average dose of DFP is 68 mg / kg / day (50 to 93 mg / kg / day). The median follow-up under DFP is 30 months (7 to 60 months). The median level of serum ferritin before the initiation of DFP is 5830 μg / l (1800 to 9300 μg / l); and the median level of serum ferritin at the end point is 7940 μg / l (4540 to 11300 μg / l). MRI shows an important hepatic iron overload (up to 320 μmol) in all patients and one cardiac iron overload (T2* = 12 ms). Three patients stopped DFP and switch to deferasirox (DFX) as soon as DFX was available. For the other patients, the reason of prescribing DFP instead of DFX was renal failure in 5 patients and DFX related GI symptoms in one patient. No agranulocytosis is observed. The weekly then monthly monitoring of blood count is insured for all patients. No cytolysis by drug's toxicity is observed, except for one patient with liver transplant and who has an active HCV infection. DISCUSSION Serum ferritin level is the easiest marker of iron overload follow-up, but is subject of important variations due to inflammation, hemolysis, and cytolysis. Indeed, MRI is the only one reliable measure. The evidence of cardiac iron overload is proved in one patient, and confirms the importance of this measure on SCD patients. This motivates the edition of guidelines concerning the prevention and monitoring of iron overload among these patients. The dosage of DFP remains reasonable compared to the mean dosage use in other pathologies. This dosage depends of the degree of iron overload and the individual tolerance. Data are not sufficient at these days to evaluate the efficacy of DFP to reduce or to stabilize the level of iron overload. However, we observe globally a good clinical and biological tolerance, even in patients who have organ transplant and therefore have several concomitant treatments. CONCLUSION DFP in patients with SCD is globally well-tolerated, but its efficiency is not proved yet. Approval of DFP for SCD is needed. As life expectancy improves in SCD, more patients will require long-term transfusion and thus iron chelation therapy. Cardiac Iron overload is possible in patients with SCD. So, it would be systematically looked after. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Objectifs Decrire le protocole des sequences IRM corps entier dynamique apres injection de Gadolinium et des sequences de diffusion utilisees pour l’etude des syndromes lymphoproliferatifs. Materiels et methodes Nous utilisons des sequences dynamiques 3D echo de gradient en acquisition rapide et en 5 pas permettant d’etudier l’ensemble du rachis, du thorax et du bassin par 7 acquisitions d’une minute (Siemens 1.5 Avanto). Nous expliquerons les sequences de diffusion echo-planar (b50, b400, b800) couplees a un asservissement respiratoire. Resultats Apres injection de gadolinium, la repetition des acquisitions dynamiques permet l’etude du rehaussement des lesions focales et de la moelle osseuse. Les sequences de diffusion permettent pour chaque lesion supra-centimetrique de calculer l’ADC a partir des images parametriques. Les limites de cet examen sont le temps long d’acquisition, les surcharges en fer et en calcium. Conclusion L’IRM fonctionnelle corps entier apporte de nouvelles informations sur les masses tumorales. Ses applications medicales sont en developpement.

Messages a retenir Les sequences de diffusion peuvent etre optimisees pour l’etude d’organes mobiles comme le foie. L’etude de la diffusion et de la perfusion hepatique peut apporter des informations fonctionnelles utiles pour le diagnostic et le suivi non-invasif des hepatopathies chroniques. La place des techniques IRM de quantification dans l’etude non-invasive des maladies du foie reste a preciser. Resume Les sequences d’IRM de diffusion, notamment asservies a la respiration, constituent un outil d’evaluation non invasif de la fibrose hepatique. Le choix du facteur b influence directement les parametres physiopathologiques evalues. La quantification de la graisse par les sequences de type DIXON ou spectroscopiques est possible en IRM : la prevalence des hepatopathies steatosiques (NAFLD) est en augmentation et oscille actuellement entre 10 a 30% de la population occidentale. Le developpement recent de nouvelles therapeutiques anti-fibrosantes et anti-steatosique necessite l’optimisation des techniques de suivi non-invasif de la steatose.

Objectifs Connaitre les differentes modalites de post-traitement utiles en scanner cardiaque. Savoir rediger un compte rendu d’imagerie cardiaque. Savoir decrire une lesion atheromateuse coronaire. Savoir analyser les parametres de taille, de volume et de fonction des cavites cardiaques. Messages a retenir Le post-traitement en imagerie cardiaque est une etape essentielle de l’interpretation des examens d’imagerie cardiaque mais est consommatrice de temps medecin. Une acquisition de bonne qualite, dependante de la synchronisation ECG, facilite le post-traitement. Le mode de reconstruction 2D curviligne est indispensable pour l’evaluation du degre de stenose coronaire. Les comptes rendus doivent mentionner : les parametres d’injection, l’utilisation eventuelle de beta-bloquants, la presence d’artefacts (techniques ou lies au patient dont la presence de calcifications), les eventuels segments coronaires non analysables, et la dose d’irradiation. Le compte rendu doit aussi preciser : la FEVG (et eventuellement les volumes ventriculaires gauches systolique et diastolique), les diametres VG et l’epaisseur des parois myocardiques. Resume De la qualite d’acquisition des images dependent la fiabilite et la rapidite du post-traitement en scanner comme en IRM. En scanner cardiaque, les modes de visualisation 3D servent essentiellement a l’identification des differentes arteres coronaires et a la determination de la dominance. La selection de la phase optimale precede l’etape d’analyse des arteres coronaires qui utilise principalement le mode 2D curviligne avec etude du grand axe et du petit axe. L’etude des bifurcations requiert une attention particuliere et necessite l’analyse d’images MPR obliques et MIP fins. La quantification des stenoses decoule des mesures de surface et de diametre minimal de la lumiere du vaisseau. Une surface luminale inferieure a 6 mm2 pour le tronc commun gauche, et inferieure a 4 mm2 pour les troncs coronaires epicardiques definissent une stenose significative. La description des stenoses de bifurcation releve d’une classification specifique. L’analyse d’un scanner cardiaque ne doit pas se limiter a l’etude des arteres coronaires. Une etude cinetique des cavites cardiaques et des parois myocardiques et de l’ensemble des structures thoraciques extra-cardiaques (mediastin, poumon et plevre) doit etre systematique.

Objectifs Connaitre les elements diagnostiques caracteristiques de l’hyperplasie nodulaire focale en imagerie. Connaitre la strategie diagnostique de l’hyperplasie nodulaire focale. Connaitre les elements semiologiques fondamentaux anatomopathologiques. Connaitre les atypies en imagerie et en anatomopathologie de l’HNF. Messages a retenir L’IRM est l’examen fondamental permettant la caracterisation formelle de l’hyperplasie nodulaire focale dans sa forme typique. L’echographie de contraste, par l’identification d’une cinetique de rehaussement central, centrifuge peut permettre une distinction entre hyperplasie nodulaire focale et adenome. Les elements anatomopathologiques caracteristiques de l’hyperplasie nodulaire focale sont la presence de bandes fibreuses inflammatoires contenant des structures vasculaires dystrophiques, associee a une proliferation cholangiolaire delimitant plus ou moins completement des nodules d’hepatocytes normaux. Resume Le diagnostic de l’hyperplasie nodulaire focale typique repose sur les donnees de l’IRM, permettant d’identifier une lesion homogene, en faible hypersignal T2, avec une zone stellaire centrale en hypersignal T2, une cinetique de rehaussement precoce, homogene, et le rehaussement tardif d’une zone stellaire centrale et l’absence de capsule peri-lesionnelle. La presence en echographie de contraste d’un rehaussement precoce intense, generalement alimente par une artere centrale et progressant de facon centrifuge est un element diagnostique important. L’aspect macroscopique est evocateur lorsqu’il montre un nodule hepatocytaire bien delimite du reste du parnchyme mais non encapsule, fait lui-meme de nodules confluents et centre par un element fibreux etoile. Le diagnostic histopathologique formel repose sur l’association d’elements caracteristiques que sont les bandes fibreuses contenant des vaisseaux a parois dystrophiques et delimitant plus ou moins completement des nodules d’hepatocytes reguliers, la presence d’une inflammation mononucleee et d’une proliferation. Certaines atypies histopathologiques telles qu’une steatose marquee, la rarete des bandes fibreuses ou de l’infiltrat inflammatoire, ou encore des atypies cyto-nucleaires peuvent poser un probleme de diagnostic differentiel avec d’autres lesions hepatocytaires, en particulier les adenomes voire les carcinomes hepatocellulaires.

Objectifs Connaitre les principes technologiques de l’imagerie IRM corps entier. Connaitre les limites techniques de l’imagerie IRM corps entier. Connaitre les possibilites d’imagerie fonctionnelle en corps entier et leurs applications en onco-hematologie. Messages a retenir L’imagerie IRM corps entier necessite de coupler grand champ d’exploration et haute resolution spatiale. L’imagerie fonctionnelle de perfusion et de diffusion est possible en corps entier. Les applications en oncologie-hematologie de ces nouvelles techniques restent a definir. Resume L’imagerie IRM corps entier est une technique en developpement. L’utilisation d’antennes de surface en reseau phase, les deplacements automatises de table, les possibilite de fusion d’images permettent une exploration IRM morphologique satisfaisante a l’echelle du corps entier. Les techniques d’acquisition parallele, et les possibilites d’appliquer a l’echelle du corps entier les techniques d’imagerie de diffusion permettent d’envisager des applications en onco-hematologie.

Objectifs Connaitre la gamme diagnostique des masses cardiaques. Savoir differencier un thrombus d’une tumeur intracardiaque. Connaitre l’aspect IRM et TDM des lesions les plus frequentes. Messages a retenir Les thrombus intracardiaques sont les lesions les plus frequemment rencontree. Le myxome de l’oreillette gauche est la tumeur benigne la plus frequente. Les metastases cardiaques sont plus frequentes que les tumeurs malignes primitives. La recherche d’une prise de contraste est un element cle du diagnostic radiologique. Resume La caracterisation d’une masse intracardiaque est une demande courante en imagerie de coupe. L’IRM est une technique pertinente pour etudier une masse cardiaque du fait de sa resolution en signal eleve. Elle permet notamment de rechercher des composants specifiques dans la lesion (graisse), d’etudier sa mobilite avec des sequences cine MR et d’analyser son rehaussement dynamique et tardif. Un thrombus est en general avasculaire (sauf exception). Le scanner offre un moins bon contraste tissulaire mais du fait de sa resolution spatiale elevee permet de mieux preciser les rapports anatomiques d’une lesion (coronaires, pericarde). Ces 2 examens peuvent donc s’averer complementaires.

But Des travaux recents suggerent que une TEP au 18FDG positive est associee a un risque eleve de recidive tumorale et de deces apres transplantation hepatique pour carcinome hepatocellulaire. Il a egalement ete montre que le degre de captation du 18FDG par la tumeur est correle a deux facteurs predictifs de recidive tumorale apres hepatectomie, le grade de differenciation tumorale et la presence d’une invasion micro-vasculaire Le but de cette etude pilote etait d’evaluer l’interet de la TEP au 18FDG comme facteur predictif de sortie de liste de TH pour CHC. Patients et Methodes Entre octobre 2006 et aout 2008, 20 malades inscrits sur liste ont beneficie d’un examen TEP au 18FDG couple a une TDM (camera hybride Gemini GXL, Philips) a l’occasion d’un bilan pre-TH pour CHC. Ces examens ont ete relus en aveugle par un operateur independant et consideres comme positifs s’il existait au moins un foyer d’hyperfixation net. La fixation du traceur a ete quantifiee par calcul du SUV (standardized uptake value) au niveau de la tumeur. Une eventuelle correlation entre la SUV et la progression ou non des malades sur liste de TH ou les caracteristiques anatomopathologiques du foie explante ont ete examines. Resultats Parmi les 20 examens TEP, 8 ont ete consideres comme positifs avec un SUV moyen de 3,9 ± 1,0 et un rapport de fixation moyen entre le foie tumoral et le foie non tumoral de 1,5 ± 0,4. Parmi ces 8 malades, seuls 4 ont ete transplantes (50 %), les 4 autres n’ayant pas ete transplantes en raison d’une progression tumorale pendant le temps d’attente. Les 12 autres malades avaient une TEP negative au moment du bilan pre-TH. Seul 1 malade a ete exclu de la liste pour progression tumorale (8 % vs 50 % si TEP positive). Deux malades sont encore en liste. Les caracteristiques anatomopathologiques du foie explante des malades en fonction du resultat de la TEP montrent que les malades avec TEP positive avant transplantation etaient hors des criteres de Milan plus frequemment (50 % vs 28 %), avaient une invasion vasculaire plus frequente (75 % vs 42 %), et un grade de differenciation tumorale plus eleve (grade > III chez 100 % vs 71 %). Le suivi des malades est pour le moment insuffisant pour juger de la difference sur la recidive tumorale apres TH en fonction de la TEP (mediane de 4,4 mois si TEP positive vs 2,2). Conclusion Ces donnees preliminaires montrent que la positivite de la TEP au 18FDG est fortement associee a une sortie de liste de TH pour progression tumorale. Par ailleurs, cette etude confirme les donnees des etudes asiatiques ayant montrees que la positivite de la TEP etait associee a des caracteristiques histologiques plus pejoratives. La TEP au 18FDG semble donc tres interessante dans le bilan pre-TH pour CHC mais sa place exacte devra etre precisee par une etude prospective de plus grande ampleur.

Objectifs Determiner la valeur des images classees suspectes ipsi ou contro-laterales en IRM pre-operatoire dans le carcinome lobulaire infiltrant (CLI). Materiels et methodes Etaient incluses retrospectivement les patientes avec CLI documente histologiquement entre 2004 et 2007, ayant ete explorees par IRM mammaire bilaterale en pre-operatoire, et ayant ete traitees par mastectomie bilaterale, suivant les recommandations actualisees de la Society of Surgical Oncology SSO 2007. La confrontation lesion par lesion des donnees de l’IRM pre-operatoire (BI-RADS 2006) a l’analyse anatomo-pathologique de la mastectomie bilaterale etait etudiee. Resultats Parmi 152 patientes traitees pour un carcinome lobulaire infitlrant, 16 (âge moyen 52 ans, 38-66 ans) ont ete incluses. Un total de 60 images suspectes a ete detecte en IRM, incluant 43 masses, 17 non-masses. En IRM 40 lesions IRM ipsilaterales et 20 lesions controlaterales suspectes (BIRADS = 4) etaient detectees incluant des lesions a rehaussement progressif (50 %), en plateau (23 %) ou avec washout (27 %). En anatomo-pathologie, 32 lesions tumorales infiltrantes etaient identifiees incluant 30 lesions ipsi et 2 lesions controlaterales (VPP de l’IRM de 53 %-72 % en ipsilateral et 10% en controlateral). Conclusion La majorite des lesions ipsilaterales suspectes en IRM correspond a des lesions infiltrantes. A contrario, la plupart des lesions controlaterales classees suspectes ne correspond pas a des foyers tumoraux, pouvant alors orienter vers une strategie diagnostique alternative.

Objectifs Connaitre les differents etats physiopathologiques du myocarde ischemique et leur semiologie IRM, en terme de signal et d’anomalies contractiles. Savoir optimiser les parametres IRM pour mettre en evidence une necrose myocardique et connaitre les pieges. Connaitre les diagnostics differentiels. Points cles Les 3 etats du myocarde ischemique : hibernant, sidere, necrose. Role de l’augmentation du volume extracellulaire et des anomalies de perfusion dans la prise de contraste de l’infarctus. Importance du reglage du temps d’inversion (TI). Interpreter et integrer dans le compte rendu le resultat des sequences cine MR et des sequences avec injection (dynamiques et tardives). Atteinte systematique du sous-endocarde en cas de necrose myocardique. Role pronostique de l’obstruction microvasculaire et de la transmuralite pour la fonction cardiaque et le « remodeling ». Resume L’hibernation et la sideration se traduisent par une anomalie de la contraction myocardique. La viabilite myocardique est conservee dans ces etats, a la difference de la necrose myocardique. Le rehaussement des zones de necrose est du a l’augmentation du volume extracellulaire (necrose myocytaire, fibrose) et a des troubles de la perfusion. Le diagnostic IRM est base sur les anomalies contractiles, sur la presence de signes d’obstruction microvasculaire (« no reflow ») et sur l’atteinte du sous-endocarde. L’importance de la transmuralite est un critere pronostique de recuperation fonctionnelle.

Objectifs Concevoir une sequence d’IRM ponderee en diffusion (IVIM-DWI) adaptee au foie avec synchronisation respiratoire et acquisition parallele, permettant d’extraire et de comparer les parametres de diffusion pure (D) et de microperfusion intravoxel (D*, f) sur des foies sains et cirrhotiques. Materiels et methodes Une sequence IVIM-DWI avec 10 pas de b (0,10, 20,30, 50,80, 100,200, 400,800 s/mm2) a ete validee sur fantomes. Une IRM hepatique incluant cette sequence IVIM-DWI a ete realisee chez 12 patients porteurs de cirrhose documentee et 25 sujets sains. Les valeurs D, D*, f et le coefficient apparent de diffusion (ADC) calcule sur 4 pas de b ont ete comparees dans les 2 groupes (t-test). Resultats La decroissance du signal hepatique etait biexponentielle correspondant a une double composante de la diffusion dans le foie. Les valeurs moyennes d’ADC etaient superieures aux valeurs de D (p Conclusion La restriction de la diffusion observee dans les foies de cirrhose s’accompagne d’une diminution de sa composante microperfusive.

Objectifs Connaitre les differents stades cliniques de l’ischemie. Connaitre le degre de l’urgence en fonction du stade clinique. Connaitre les differentes modalites diagnostiques et therapeutiques. Discuter quand, comment, et que faire ? Points cles Severite de l’ischemie en fonction du niveau de l’obstacle. Prise en charge globale : etiologie et consequence de J’ischemie. La revascularisation endovasculaire ou chirurgicale : indications et principes. Resume L’exploration par les techniques d’imagerie non invasive grâce a l’angio-IMR et l’angio-TDM de la pathologie ischemique des membres inferieurs s’est beaucoup developpee recemment. Elle permet une cartographie complete des axes vasculaires depuis les arteres viscerales jusqu’aux arteres de jambe. La pathologie atheromateuse est l’indication la plus frequente. Leur role essentiel est de preciser le niveau des occlusions et l’etat du lit arteriel d’aval. Elles viennent en complement de l’echographie Doppler qui va detecter les lesions. Elle oriente vers un traitement medical, endovasculaire (angioplastie, stent) ou chirurgical (pontage veineux ou prothetique). Les images pieges sont importantes a connaitre et a comprendre pour optimiser les sequences et les modalites d’injection. La place et les limites principales de chaque technique en fonction des differents types de lesion seront discutees. De multiples exemples seront analyses en particulier chez les patients avec une pathologie complexe ou multi-operes pour montrer l’apport de l’IRM et de la TDM dans le choix de la technique de revascularisation.

Objectifs Connaitre l’anatomie ganglionnaire macroscopique. Connaitre les aspects morphologiques suggerant la presence d’un envahissement ganglionnaire tumoral en imagerie. Connaitre le potentiel et les limites de l’imagerie morphologique dans l’exploration des adenopathies. Points cles L’analyse morphologique des formations ganglionnaires est possible sur plusieurs modalites incluant echographie, TDM et surtout IRM. Certains criteres morphologiques – irregularite corticale, anomalie de signal en IRM, rehaussement – peuvent suggerer un envahissement tumoral ganglionnaire. Une imagerie ganglionnaire complete requiert l’emploi de techniques d’imagerie fonctionnelle pour optimiser la sensibilite et la specificite de l’imagerie. Resume L’analyse ganglionnaire en haute resolution (proche du millimetre dans le plan) est possible en imagerie de coupe. L’analyse de la morphologie ganglionnaire inclut les elements suivants : la mesure de la taille ganglionnaire, l’analyse des contours ganglionnaires, l’analyse du signal ganglionnaire en IRM, la recherche d’un hile ganglionnaire graisseux. Cette approche morphologique pure est cependant insuffisante pour optimiser la sensibilite et la specificite de l’imagerie dans la detection d’un envahissement ganglionnaire tumoral.

Objectifs Connaitre l’interet et les limites des differentes modalites d’imagerie fonctionnelle : echographie de contraste, TDM, IRM, traceurs dans l’exploration du foie. Connaitre les applications actuelles et le potentiel futur de l’imagerie de diffusion hepatique. Points cles L’evaluation sous traitement des lesions tumorales hepatiques (primitives ou secondaires) necessite le recours aux techniques d’imagerie fonctionnelle. L’imagerie de diffusion dans le foie augmente la sensibilite de detection des lesions secondaires hepatiques et favorise la caracterisation des hepatopathies chroniques. Resume L’imagerie tissulaire hepatique combine evaluation morphologique et fonctionnelle hepatique. La fonction vasculaire du foie est au mieux etudiee en imagerie de perfusion (approche multimodale) permettant l’extraction de parametres fonctionnels utiles pour le suivi des nouvelles therapeutiques ciblees (index arteriel hepatique, flux sanguin, permeabilite surfacique). L’etude du foie par IRM de diffusion ameliore la caracterisation des hepatopathies chroniques. Les images de diffusion permettent en outre d’optimiser la detection des lesions tumorales hepatiques.
