Abstract
The contrast between edema and F98 glioma in rat brain was distinctly enhanced in T2-weighted MRI (TE 130 ms, TR 3 s) by intraperitoneal injection of the synthetic gadolinium-porphyrin complex, GdTPPS. The T1 relaxation time of the gliomas was selectively shortened by about 50% from 1339 +/- 109 ms to 628 +/- 106 ms, and the T2 relaxation time was shortened by about 35% from 86 +/- 6 ms to 57 +/- 5 ms. The relaxation times of normal tissues under investigation (cortex, corpus callosum, temporal muscle, ventricles) were unaltered. Therefore, GdTPPS-application causes F98 gliomas to appear hyperintense in T1-weighted MRI and hypointense in T2-weighted MRI.
