MRI diagnosis of focal liver diseases. Bagnenko S.S., Trufanov G.E.

Diagnosis and treatment of focal liver lesions are important problems of modern medicine. Moreover, the expediency, volume and effectiveness of medical measures are determined, first of all, by the nature of the existing changes and the stage of development of the process. Radiation methods of research play an invaluable role in the diagnostic algorithm.

attempts to introduce magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the field of studies of the abdomen's pathology have been made almost from the beginning of its clinical use. The use of modern MR scanning techniques in conjunction with traditional MRI and the use of hepatotropic contrasting drugs allows you to get maximum information on the morphological characteristics of the focus of liver damage, the biochemical composition and functional state of the organ. At the same time, the established opinion in the medical community about There are no possibilities of these methods. There are no clear indications for their use, issues of a methodological and technical nature remain unresolved. This book is a comprehensive scientific work aimed at in-depth analysis of the above problems and the comprehensive illumination of the possibilities of modern MR research methods in the identification and differential diagnosis of focal liver lesions.

The publication is intended for radiation diagnostics, adjacent disciplines, doctors of related disciplines specializing in the field of hepatology, and can also be recommended to scientists when writing their dissertation work and for training in the system of postgraduate professional education.
