Reproducibility of quantitative cerebral T2 relaxometry, diffusion tensor imaging, and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 3.0 Tesla.
OBJECTIVES The reproducibility of quantitative cerebral T2 relaxometry, diffusion tensor imaging, and H magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopic imaging was assessed on a clinical 3.0 T MR system. MATERIALS AND METHODS Repeated measurements in 10 healthy volunteers were used to establish the reproducibility of quantitative measures derived from different quantitative MR techniques, namely the T2...
متن کاملT2 relaxometry of the hippocampus at 3T.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE T2 mapping is useful for identifying and quantifying abnormalities of the hippocampus and amygdala. It is particularly useful in the presurgical evaluation of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and for the identification of bilateral hippocampal sclerosis (HS). The purpose of this study was to implement and validate a dual-echo method for producing coronal T2 maps with ...
متن کاملCerebral cysticercosis and stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In 1985 we initiated a protocol for examining the relationship between cerebral cysticercosis and stroke. METHODS In 420 stroke patients admitted to our department, our standard protocol of tests included blood tests, cardiac investigations, angiography, and immunologic cerebrospinal fluid measures. We assessed the following possible risk factors: arterial hypertension,...
متن کاملHippocampal T2 relaxometry in epilepsy: past, present, and future.
Mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS) is the most common known pathologic substrate of epilepsy. Accurate preoperative identification of unilateral MTS bymagnetic resonance (MR) imaging has had a tremendous impact on the clinical management of medically refractory seizures. It was well known in the pre-MR era that obtaining a temporal lobectomy specimen that contained MTS conferred a higher probabili...
متن کاملIntegrated treadmill stress testing and MR relaxometry (T1, T2, T2*): response in healthy calf muscles
Background Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is accompanied by a complex lower limb pathophysiology resulting in reduced functional capacity and quality of life. We aim to characterize the exercise recovery kinetics in the calf muscle of healthy volunteers by combining treadmill exercise and magnetic resonance (MR) relaxometry (T1, T2 and T2*), and to investigate their relation with age and tre...
