Nuclear magnetic resonance serum relaxometry in patients with different forms of erysipelas in the dynamics of the disease

Aim. To study the time of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of spin-lattice serum relaxation (T1) in the dynamics of an infectious process in patients with different forms of erysipelas. Materials and methods. 37 patients with different clinical forms of erysipelas were examined in the acute period of the disease and in the early period of convalescence. Results. A statistically significant increase in T1 NMR was ascertained in patients with bullous hemorrhagic erysipelas as compared with those with erythematous form. Conclusion. Pronounced changes in the functional status of serum in patients with hemorrhagic forms of erysipelas are of great importance in the development of the local hemorrhagic syndrome.
