مستخلص: | Objective: The purpose of this paper was to investigate the role of two three-dimensional magnetic resonance (MRI) sequences: enhanced spoiled gradient recalled echo (SPGR), and fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition (FIESTA) in the evaluation of intraventricular neurocysticercosis cysts and scolices. Method: Seven neurocysticercosis patients suspected of presenting intraventricular lesions were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging using enhanced SPGR, and FIESTA. Results: Enhanced SPGR detected eight cystic lesions, with scolices in four. Contrast enhancement was observed in three cysts. FIESTA also detected eight cystic lesions with the presence of scolices in seven of those cystic lesions. Four patients presented parenchymal involvement, while the remaining three presented the racemose form. Conclusion: FIESTA and SPGR are sequences that can detect intraventricular cysts of neurocysticercosis, and FIESTA also is good for the detection of the scolex. Considering this information we suggest that FIESTA and SPGR should be included in the MRI protocol for the investigation of intraventricular neurocysticercosis. |
