目的:目的:比较磁共振成像(MRL)和18氟脱氧葡萄糖(FDG)正电子发射断层扫描(PET)在局灶性皮质发育不良(FCD)诊断中的应用。所有患者均行MRI检查,17例患者行FDG-PET检查。结果:FCD I级4例,II级4例,III级2例。11例III级FCD患者中有9例(82%)在MRI上检测到病变,8例I级和II级FCD患者中仅1例(13%)在MRI上检测到病变。FDG-PET显示,7例I级和II级FCD患者中有6例(86%)和10例III级FCD患者中有9例(90%)的病变皮质代谢低下。17例患者中有11例(65%)FDC-PET显示的皮质异常程度大于MRI。结论:FDG-PET更有助于显示轻度FCD患者的皮质异常。与MRI相比,FDG-PET上的病变范围更大或相似。
Purpose: The purpose of this work was to compare the use of MRL and [F-18]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in the diagnosis of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD).Method: Nineteen patients with surgically proven FCD were analyzed retrospectively. MRI was performed in all patients, and FDG-PET was performed in 17 patients. We compared the MR and FDG-PET finding's of FCD according to the histologic findings that were classified into three grades.Results: Four cases were classified as Grade I, 4 cases as Grade II, and ii cases as Grade III FCD. The lesions were detected on MRI in 9 (82%) of the 11 patients with Grade III FCD and in only 1 (13%) of the 8 patients with Grade I and II FCD. Cortical hypometabolism of the lesion was revealed on FDG-PET in 6 (86%) of the 7 patients with Grade I and Il FCD and in 9 (90%) of the 10 patients with Grade III FCD. The extent of the cortical abnormality was larger on FDC-PET than on MRI in 11 (65%) of the 17 patients.Conclusion: FDG-PET is more useful in delineating the cortical abnormality in patients with mild degrees of FCD. The extent of the lesion was larger or similar on FDG-PET compared with that of the MRI.
