Radiation-Induced Microbleeds after Cranial Irradiation: Evaluation by Phase-Sensitive Magnetic Resonance Imaging with 3.0 Tesla
BACKGROUND Although there are many reports regarding radiation-induced microbleeds, its frequency, relation to dose and latency after radiation are not fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the frequency, latency, patient factors and dose relation of radiation-induced microbleeds after cranial irradiation using phase-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (PSI) at 3.0 T. M...
متن کاملMRI evaluation of rabbit bone marrow after acute irradiation
Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a safe modality and useful in characterizing normal and abnormal bone marrow (BM). MRI also presents a more global view of BM than biopsy therefore, it may provide a better understanding of hematologic disorders. The purpose of this study was to monitor radiation-induced alterations of BM in acute phase of irradiation (1-10 day after total body ir...
متن کاملGeometric accuracy of 3D coordinates of the Leksell stereotactic skull frame in 1.5 Tesla- and 3.0 Tesla-magnetic resonance imaging: a comparison of three different fixation screw materials
We assessed the geometric distortion of 1.5-Tesla (T) and 3.0-T magnetic resonance (MR) images with the Leksell skull frame system using three types of cranial quick fixation screws (QFSs) of different materials-aluminum, aluminum with tungsten tip, and titanium-for skull frame fixation. Two kinds of acrylic phantoms were placed on a Leksell skull frame using the three types of screws, and were...
متن کاملDiffusion tensor imaging screening of radiation-induced changes in the white matter after prophylactic cranial irradiation of patients with small cell lung cancer: first results of a prospective study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) will show abnormal fractional anisotropy (FA) in the normal-appearing brain after prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI). These abnormalities will be more accentuated in patients with underlying vascular risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective study by use of DTI and conventional T2-weighted MR images was performed with a 1.5T un...
متن کاملSusceptibility Imaging in Glial Tumor Grading; Using 3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance (MR) System and 32 Channel Head Coil
BACKGROUND Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is a velocity compensated, high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) spoiled gradient-echo sequence that uses magnitude and filtered-phase data. SWI seems to be a valuable tool for non-invasive evaluation of central nervous system gliomas. Relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) ratio is one of the best noninvasive methods for glioma grading. Degree o...
