title: [Acoustic neurinomas. Magnetic resonance tomography using the contrast medium Gd-DTPA].
abstract: The contrast agent Gd-DTPA was used in the diagnosis of neurinomas of the VIII nerve. The analysis of the findings led to the conclusion that the use of the agent improved the visualization of auditory neurinomas and contributed to their differentiation from the brain stem and cerebellum and that its was more advisable to apply contrast enhancement in tumors located in the internal acoustic meatus (microneurinomas) or large (including bilateral) tumors with stem compression.
