Abstract | This study investigated the use of clinical peritoneal dialysis fluid (dialysate) as a peritoneal contrast agent to visualize peritoneal adhesions in rats at 7
Tesla. Intraperitoneal injection of dialysate (~0.1 mL/g) allowed the MR detection of peritoneal adhesions that were surgically induced in all rats studied (N
= 6). MR measurements of adhesion surface areas correlated well with the postmortem estimations (R = 0.99). T1 and T2 values of undiluted dialysate were
found to be 3017.5¡Ó35.3 ms and 108.4¡Ó2.0 ms, respectively. These findings demonstrated dialysate-enhanced MRI as a potentially valuable technique in
clinical detection and evaluation of post-surgical peritoneal adhesion and to monitor therapeutic interventions (i.e., against peritoneal adhesion) in future
preclinical research. |
