  • This study presents a case of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in a 58-year-old man showing unusual manifestations mimicking chronic osteomyelitis. In this case review, we describe the imaging findings of DLBCL which mimics chronic osteomyelitis and review existing reports regarding the differential diagnosis of bone involvement of lymphoma and osteomyelitis through imaging and laboratory findings and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) such as the advanced MRI sequence.

  • A magnetic resonance neurography technique for exclusive imaging of nerve networks is proposed. In the proposed technique, the anisotropy of diffusion coefficients of the molecules inside nerve cells was utilized to effectively suppress the magnetic resonance signal radiating from ones other than nerve tissues. Two images were obtained with diffusionweighting magnetic field gradients applied in the parallel and perpendicular directions with respect to the nerve orientation. One image was then subtract- ted from the other to form the neurogram. Experimentally obtained neurograms of the squld are presented.

  • Clear cell sarcoma is rare and difficult to diagnose. Herein, we present a case of clear cell sarcoma in the dorsum of the wrist with MRI findings, including diffusion-weighted imaging, and histopathologic correlation, which was initially diagnosed as giant cell tumor of tendon sheath.

  • The effects of the sample viscosity and volume on the convective flows induced by temperature gradient in PGSE-NMR self-diffusion measurements at high temperature have been investigated. The experimental results showed that the viscosity of the liquid sample strongly affects the magnitude of the convective flows as well as the diffusion coefficient itself. It was also found that the convective flows increase as the sample volume increase.

  • Direct quantification of methanol in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was studied and the methanol concentrations in PEM produced by crossover and diffusion were compared. The error range of the quantification was not smaller than ${\pm}15%$ and the amount of the methanol crossed over in our direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) was less than the methanol diffused to PEM. The methanol concentration in the PEM of the DMFC operated at different current densities were equivalent.

  • Purpose: Advances of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), especially that of the Ultra-High Field (UHF) MRI will be reviewed. Materials and Methods: Diffusion MRI data was obtained from a healthy adult young male of age 30 using a 7.0T research MRI scanner (Magnetom, Siemens) with 40 mT/m maximum gradient field. The specific imaging parameters used for the data acquisition were a single shot DW echo planar imaging. Results: Three areas of the imaging experiments are focused on for the study, namely the anatomy, angiography, and tractography. Conclusion: It is envisioned that, in near future, there will be more 7.0T MRIs for brain research and explosive clinical application research will also be developed, for example in the area of connectomics in neuroscience and clinical neurology and neurosurgery.

  • Mapping brain structural and functional connections through the whole brain is essential for understanding brain mechanisms and the physiological bases of brain diseases. Although region specific structural or functional deficits cause brain diseases, the changes of interregional connections could also be important factors of brain diseases. This review will introduce common neuroimaging modalities, including structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging, and other recent neuroimaging analyses methods, such as voxel-based morphometry, cortical thickness analysis, local gyrification index, and shape analysis for structural imaging. Tract-Based Spatial Statistics, TRActs Constrained by UnderLying Anatomy for diffusion MRI, and independent component analysis for fMRI also will also be introduced.

  • 고환 표피 낭종은 드문 양성 종양으로, 모든 고환 종양의 1-2%를 차지한다. 양성 질환으로 고환의 보존이 가능하므로 수술 전에 정확한 진단이 가능하다면 불필요한 고환 절제술을 피할 수 있다. 저자는 오른쪽 음낭의 무통성 종괴로 내원한 18세 남자의 고환 표피 낭종 한 례를 경험하여 보고하고자 한다. 종괴는 초음파상 양파환 징후를 보였고 컴퓨터 단층 촬영에서는 종괴 내부에 곡선의 석회화가 관찰되었다. 자기공명영상 T2 강조영상에서 종괴는 내부에 교차하는 저 신호의 환을 동반하는 고신호 강도로 보였다. 확산강조 영상에서 이 종괴는 고신호 강도를 보이고 현상확산계수(ADC) 영상에서는 낮은 값을 보였으며 이와 같은 소견은 두개내 표피 낭종에서 보고된 바와 동일한 것이다. 기존의 자기공명영상에 확산강조 영상과 현상확산계수 영상을 추가로 시행한다면 고환 표피 낭종의 진단에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
