The authors analyse the first experience in the use of magnetic resonance tomography (MP-tomography) in the diagnosis of some surgical diseases. MR-tomography of the mammary gland (257 patients), thymus (55 patients), adrenals (41 patients), and hypophysis (18 patients) was conducted. The results of the examination were compared with the findings of other diagnostic methods and verified intraoperatively and histologically. The authors claim that the high informativeness of MR-tomography, its noninvasiveness, the absence of a radiation load, and the possibility of repeating the examination many times in three mutually-perpendicular planes distinguish the method favorably and dictate the necessity of its further study in clinical medicine.
Three patients with acute adrenal insufficiency of different causes are presented. In all three cases the adrenals were grossly enlarged and showed additional more specific changes that made a definite CT diagnosis possible in spite of the fact that clinical signs were rather non-specific in two of the three cases.
