Ultra-High-Field MRI Visualization of Cortical Multiple Sclerosis Lesions with T2 and T2*: A Postmortem MRI and Histopathology Study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE At 7T MR imaging, T2*-weighted gradient echo has been shown to provide high-resolution anatomic images of gray matter lesions. However, few studies have verified T2*WI lesions histopathologically or compared them with more standard techniques at ultra-high-field strength. This study aimed to determine the sensitivity of T2WI and T2*WI sequences for detecting cortical GM l...
متن کاملChapter 2 . 2 Ultra - high field MRI visualization of cortical multiple sclerosis lesions with T 2 and T 2 * : a post - mortem MRI and histopathology study
abstraCt Background and Purpose: At 7T MRI, T2*-weighted (T2*-w) gradient-echo has been shown to provide high-resolution anatomical images of gray matter (GM) lesions. However, few studies have verified T2* lesions histopathologically, or compared them with more standard techniques at ultra-high field-strength. This study aims to determine the sensitivity of T2-w and T2*-w sequences for detecti...
متن کاملT2*-weighted MRI technique for visualization of RF ablation lesions
Background LGE-MRI is widely used to assess cardiac RF ablation lesions. However, LGE-MRI requires contrast injection and the appearance, dimensions and visibility of lesions in LGE-MRI noticeably change with time after ablation and time after contrast injection. Recently proposed non-contrast T1-weighted (T1w) technique is only applicable to visualize acute (< 3 days) RF lesions. The main goal...
متن کاملIncreased cortical grey matter lesion detection in multiple sclerosis with 7 Tesla MRI : a postmortem verification study 2 . 3 7 T postmortem MRI and histopathology study
The relevance of cortical grey matter pathology in multiple sclerosis has become increasingly recognised over the past decade. Unfortunately, a large part of cortical lesions remain undetected on MRI using standard field strength. In vivo studies have shown improved detection by using higher magnetic field strengths up to 7 T. So far, a systematic histopathological verification of ultrahigh-fie...
متن کاملDisability and T2 MRI lesions: a 20-year follow-up of patients with relapse onset of multiple sclerosis.
Clinically isolated syndromes (CIS), such as optic neuritis, brainstem or spinal cord syndromes are frequently the first clinical presentations of multiple sclerosis. However, not all CIS patients develop multiple sclerosis and in those who do, disability is highly variable. In previous follow-up studies, brain lesions on T2-weighted MRI are associated with increased risk of multiple sclerosis ...
