[Clinical trial of color-hybrid images for assessment of Gd-DTPA contrast enhancement].

Gd-DTPA (Gd) has been shown to provide effective contrast enhancement in MR imaging. However, it is sometimes impossible to evaluate Gd contrast enhancement (C.E.) in high intensity tissues like fat and bone marrow. To solve this problem, color-hybrid images (hybrid images) were generated by the use of an RGB mixing method. A total of 54 lesions, including 30 bone and soft tissue lesions and 24 gynecological lesions, were studied. In most cases, the hybrid images were superior to the original ones in terms of both morphologic and temporal evaluation of Gd C.E. The hybrid images helped to define the localization and extent C.E., by providing better visualization through the use of color display.

Endoscopic studies on the minute structures of colonic mucosa in the follow-up observation of ulcerative colitis.

Thirty cases of ulcerative colitis were examined endoscopically by means of magnifying colonoscope with dye spraying method (the combined method), and their minute mucosal structures were classified into four categories endoscopically, which correlated well with the histological findings. By this procedure, it was easy to detect the subsidence of inflammation of the mucosa in the quiescent phase or to reveal the active inflammatory involvement of the bowel. Moreover, inspecting the minute changes of the colonic mucosa detected by the combined method, remission was more correctly decided and rigid control is contributing to the decrease in the recent rate of recurrence of ulcerative colitis.
