MRI has clearly improved the visualization of the perisellar region. Its full role in the diagnosis of pituitary adenomas remains to be defined. It is likely that three-dimensional Fourier transform thin-section imaging of the gland will further refine the diagnosis of adenoma, allowing not only for the visualization of tiny adenomas, but possibly helping to distinguish them from other nonadenomatous intraglandular abnormalities.
磁共振成像(MRI)明显改善了鞍周区域的可视化。其在垂体腺瘤诊断中的全部作用仍有待确定。对腺体进行三维傅里叶变换薄层成像可能会进一步完善腺瘤的诊断,不仅能够显示微小腺瘤,还有助于将它们与腺体内其他非腺瘤性异常区分开来。
