METHOD OF LIFETIME DIAGNOSTICS OF INTRASELLAR HYPERTENSION ON LOW-FIELD MAGNETIC RESONANCE TOMOGRAPH Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A61B5/55 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine and is intended for lifetime diagnostics of intrasellar hypertension on low-field magnetic resonance tomograph. T1 - protocol with parametres for hypophysis: TR (time repetition) is equal 340; TE (Time echo) is equal 26; quantity of slices (No slices) is equal 7, thickness of slices (slices thickness) is equal 3 mm; field of view (Field of view) is equal 230; matrix is equal 192×256; number of data collection (No Acquisition) is equal 6, is used. On obtained images by means of adjustment of brightness and contrast scale hypophysis diaphragm is additionally highlighted. If dome-like risen diaphragm is present, distance from chiasma to diaphragm is measured. If the distance is less than 2 mm, as well as concave upper hypophysis boundary, intrasellar hypertension is diagnosed.

EFFECT: ensuring possibility to perform diagnostics of intrasellar hypertension on low-field magnetic resonance tomograph.
