Intracranial bleeding in MRI

Description

About 10% of all intracranial findings in cranial MRI were hemorrhages, or findings associated with bleeding. There was great variation in the hemorrhages as a result of their location and their age, and this could disguise the underlying lesions. Therefore a knowledge of the typical appearance of spontaneous bleeding and tumor bleeding is necessary for interpretation of the MRI findings. During its course, cerebral bleeding shows all of the known interactions between biochemical and histological factors and MRI signal. Thus, an understanding of the variations during the clinical course of bleeding is helpful for a better understanding of contrast mechanisms in MRI. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Rund 10% aller zerebralen Befunde waren im eigenen Patientengut Blutungen oder mit Blutungen vergesellschaftet. Die Blutung zeigt, abhaengig von Blutungsort und -alter, eine grosse Variationsbreite und kann unterliegende Laesionen maskieren. Daher ist die Kenntnis des Erscheinungsbildes der blanden und der Tumorblutung wichtig fuer die Bildinterpretation. Die Blutung zeigt im zeitlichen Verlauf alle bislang bekannten Kontrastmechanismen. Die Kenntnis der biochemischen und histologischen Faktoren, die das Erscheinungsbild der Blutung praegen, eroeffnet daher prinzipiellen Einblick in die Enstehung von Kontrasten bei der MRT. (orig.)
