Three male patients with a history of spray-paint inhalation are presented.
Spin-echo MR was used to evaluate the central nervous system changes secondary to toluene inhalation delivered via spray-paint fumes.
The remarkable findings included the loss of cerebral and cerebellar gray-white matter discrimination, scattered multifocal deep white matter lesions, and gross generalized atrophy of the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the corpus callosum.
Although the observed changes are nonspecific, combined with a positive history the diagnosis of inhalation toluene abuse can be made on the basis of consistent MR findings.
介绍3例有喷漆吸入史的男性患者。
采用自旋回波磁共振成像评估因吸入喷漆烟雾中的甲苯而继发的中枢神经系统变化。
显著发现包括大脑和小脑灰白质分辨不清、散在多发深部白质病变以及大脑、小脑和胼胝体的广泛性萎缩。
虽然观察到的变化是非特异性的,但结合阳性病史,基于一致的磁共振成像表现可作出吸入甲苯滥用的诊断。
