The magnetization transfer effect in cerebral infarction.
PURPOSE To estimate the age of cerebral infarcts using magnetization transfer. METHODS Twelve patients with radiographically and clinically documented cortical and subcortical cerebral infarctions underwent MR imaging on a 0.1T magnet. Magnetization transfer contrast images were generated by application of off-resonance pulses to every other repetition time on intermediate-weighted images. Th...
متن کاملHigh resolution Magnetization Transfer Ratio (MTR) mapping in Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a condition that affects young adults typically aged 20-40 years, and involves inflammation and demyelination of neural axons in the brain and nervous system. Magnetization transfer (MT) imaging studies the interaction between water and macromolecular (e.g.Protein in Myelin) protons and can be a useful in studying the changes in normal appearing white ma...
متن کاملMagnetization transfer ratio in Alzheimer disease: comparison with volumetric measurements.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Alzheimer disease (AD) is accompanied by macroscopic atrophy on volumetric MR imaging. A few studies have also demonstrated reduction in magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), suggesting microstructural changes in remaining brain tissue. This study assessed the value of measuring MTR in addition to volumetric MR in differentiating patients with AD from control subjects. MA...
متن کاملMagnetization Transfer Ratio Relates to Cognitive Impairment in Normal Elderly
Magnetization transfer imaging (MTI) can detect microstructural brain tissue changes and may be helpful in determining age-related cerebral damage. We investigated the association between the magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) in gray and white matter (WM) and cognitive functioning in 355 participants of the Austrian stroke prevention family study (ASPS-Fam) aged 38-86 years. MTR maps were gene...
متن کاملNormalization of Magnetization Transfer Ratio MRI For Multicentre Clinical Trials
Introduction Magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is a promising technique for measuring in vivo demyelination and remyelination, providing a more direct measurement of activity in diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS). Incorporation of MTR in multicentre imaging protocols is feasible using stock sequences and MT pulses. However, such MTR values are sequence and sc...
