Advanced Neuroimaging in the Evaluation of Spinal Cord Tumors and Tumor Mimics: Diffusion Tensor and Perfusion-Weighted Imaging.
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT, and MR 2017 April
Spinal cord tumors are an important component of pathologic diseases involving the spinal cord. Conventional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging only provides anatomical information. MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and MR perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) may detect microstructure diffusion and hemodynamic changes in these tumors. We review recent application studies of MR DTI and PWI in spinal cord tumors. Overall, MR DTI and MR PWI are promising imaging tools that are especially useful in improving differential diagnosis between spinal cord tumors and tumor mimics, preoperative evaluation of resectability, and providing assistance in surgical navigation.
