Zusammenfassung

Die zunehmende technische Weiterentwicklung der Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) hat auch zunehmende Indikationen dieser aufwendigen, nicht-invasiven Modalität für alle Gebiete der Inneren Medizin gebracht. Der vorliegende Beitrag gibt eine Übersicht relevanter Indikationen für diese Untersuchung in den einzelnen Subspezialitäten der Inneren Medizin. Dabei wird besonders auf die diagnostische Aussagekraft neuer MRT-Techniken im Vergleich zu etablierten Verfahren wie der Computertomographie bzw. der Sonographie eingegangen.

Abstract

Due to further technical developments in recent years, magnet resonance imaging (MRI) is now recognized as one of the primary diagnostic imaging modalities in the field of Internal Medicine. This review describes relevant indications for MRI in the different subspecialties of Internal Medicine and compares the diagnostic yield of MRI to other established modalities such as computed tomography and ultrasound.
