  • Title: [Visualization of multiple neurofibromas using gadolinium-DTPA assisted MRT: a case report].
    Author: Kaminsky S, Schulz B.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1988 Dec; 41(12):492-4. PubMed ID: 3145555.
    Abstract:
    Although magnetic resonance imaging has a high sensitivity for cerebral and spinal tumors, demonstration of small lesions can be difficult. In a patient with multiple extra- and intraspinal tumors due to neurofibromatosis generalisata, the use of the MRI contrast agent Gadolinium-DTPA resulted in a better differentiation especially of small lesions. High tumor contrast facilitated a safe localisation of the widespread disease using a fast imaging sequence (FLASH).
