Abstract:
To explore the diagnostic value of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) for intracranial cavernous hemangioma.The magnetic resonance sequences of SWI,conventional imaging (MRI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) were performed in 37 patients of intracranial cavernous hemangioma to compare their different imaging capacities.Among them,the number of lesions found on T1WI,T2WI,DWI and SWI sequences were 40,41,42 and 50 respectively.Thus SWI may detect regular MRI negative or smaller lesions of intracranial cavernous hemangioma.
