Objective: To compare the initial enhancement patterns in patients with osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma between June 2013 and July 2014 were included. Patients received dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging scans in order to determine the initiation of enhancement time and the enhancement curve.
Results: In total, 19 of 21 (90%) patients with osteosarcoma showed earlier initiation of enhancement compared with five of 20 (25%) patients with Ewing sarcoma.
Conclusion: Patients with osteosarcoma showed more initial hypervascularity than did those with Ewing sarcoma, manifested by considerable differences in the percentage with early initiation of enhancement in the dynamic analysis.

目的:比較骨肉瘤和尤文氏肉瘤患者的初始強化模式。
方法:在2013年6月至2014年7月期間診斷為骨肉瘤和尤文氏肉瘤的患者被納入研究。患者進行動態對比增強磁共振成像以確定初始強化時間和強化曲線。
結果:21例(90%)骨肉瘤中有19例顯示較早初始強化,同樣情況在尤文氏肉瘤中則有5例(25%)。
結論:基於動態分析顯示初始強化時間的比例差異,骨肉瘤的高血管供應較尤文氏肉瘤為多。
