Diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MR imaging of intracranial metastases.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Postcontrast fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging effectively depicts parenchymal and leptomeningeal metastases, as reported in limited patient groups. We compared postcontrast T1-weighted (T1W) and FLAIR imaging in a larger group. METHODS Sixty-nine patients with known malignancy and suspected cranial metastases underwent axial FLAIR and spin-echo T1W im...
متن کاملFast fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery MR of intracranial infections.
PURPOSE To assess the usefulness of fast fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR sequences in the diagnosis of intracranial infectious diseases. METHODS We compared fast FLAIR images with conventional spin-echo images (T1- and T2-weighted) obtained in 20 patients with infectious diseases (six with encephalitis, five with brain abscesses, three with meningitis, two with meningoencephali...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted imaging, apparent diffusion coefficients, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MR imaging in endophthalmitis.
We describe the appearance of endogenous bacterial endophthalmitis in a patient who underwent MR imaging of the orbits before and during the course of treatment. Intraocular hyperintensity on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery and diffusion-weighted images were found very useful for diagnosing endophthalmitis. After a few days of treatment, a marked relative increase in intraocular mean appare...
متن کاملNormal myelination of the pediatric brain imaged with fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE As in adult imaging, FLAIR can be applied to pediatric brain imaging, and this requires an appreciation of the normal pediatric brain appearance by FLAIR imaging. The purpose of this study was to describe the MR appearance of the brain in normal infants and young children as demonstrated by fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR imaging. METHODS We retrospective...
متن کاملAnalysis of cystic intracranial lesions performed with fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE T1-, T2-, and proton density (PD)-weighted sequences are used to characterize the content of cystic intracranial lesions. Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MR sequences produce T2-weighted images with water signal saturation. Therefore, we attempted to verify whether FLAIR, as compared with conventional techniques, improves the distinction between intracranial c...
