Until now, however, correlation between contrast enhancement and timing of image acquisition in nontreated VS has not been analyzed systematically. The authors undertook this study to investigate changes in contrast enhancement with respect to latency of image acquisition after contrast agent administration.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The dynamics of contrast medium uptake were evaluated with T1-weighted VIBE MR imaging sequences performed immediately and 1.5, 3.5, 4.5, 9.5, and 11.5 minutes after administration of single dose of Gd in 21 patients with nontreated medium- to large-sized VSs. Signal-to-noise (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of tumors were evaluated, and volumes of central nonenhancing areas (NEAs) were determined.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The interior appearance of the tumors changed considerably over time. The NEA significantly diminished in size (p &lt; 0.0001, Friedman test) and almost completely disappeared in all but 2 patients. Compared to images at 1.5 minutes, NEA volumes decreased to a median of 36% at 3.5 minutes and 34% at 4.5 minutes, showing smaller changes after that\u20149% at 9.5 minutes and 3% at 11.5 minutes. Tumor SNR and CNR increased over time. The maximum change in the median values for SNR and CNR were a 72% increase and 117% increase, respectively; both occurred at 1.5 minutes after Gd administration.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Contrast enhancement in VS MR imaging varies according to the duration of the delay between contrast agent administration and image acquisition. Postradiotherapy changes in contrast enhancement of VS can therefore not be attributed only to effective radiotherapy. So-called \u201closs of central contrast enhancement\u201d may be falsely detected because of timing. A standardized protocol with defined timing of image acquisition may increase comparability of contrast uptake in VS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2010.5.jns10307","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,6,4]],"date-time":"2010-06-04T14:46:38Z","timestamp":1275662798000},"page":"394-399","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Magnetic resonance imaging dynamics of contrast medium uptake in vestibular schwannomas"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"114","author":[{"given":"Stefan","family":"Rampp","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Scheller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, University of Halle-Wittenberg, Halle; and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julian","family":"Prell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, University of Halle-Wittenberg, Halle; and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tobias","family":"Engelhorn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroradiology, University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Strauss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, University of Halle-Wittenberg, Halle; and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jens","family":"Rachinger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, University of Halle-Wittenberg, Halle; and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1-jns10307","series-title":"Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A","first-page":"8443","article-title":"A model for MRI contrast enhancement using T1 agents","volume":"95","author":"Ahrens","year":"1998"},{"key":"b2-jns10307","series-title":"Acta Neurochir (Wien)","first-page":"689","article-title":"Gamma knife radiosurgery of acoustic neurinomas","volume":"143","author":"Bertalanffy","year":"2001"},{"key":"b3-jns10307","series-title":"Eur Radiol","first-page":"2472","article-title":"Imaging of cerebellopontine angle lesions: an update.
