WebTwo blinded subspecialty-trained radiologists independently assessed the visibility of 12 anatomic structures by using a 5-point scale and assessed CSF pulsation artifact by using a 4-point scale. Sagittal images and 6 axial levels from C2-T1 on T2-FSE were reviewed; 2 weeks later and after randomization, T2-SPACE was evaluated. WebPhysiologic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulsation causes a harmonic modulation of proton precessional phase with two-dimensional Fourier transform (2DFT) imaging, which …
Suppression of Cerebrospinal Fluid and Blood Flow Artifacts
WebWe studied ventricular CSF pulsation artifact (VCSFA) on axial FLAIR images and its relationship to age and ventricular size. Methods: Fast FLAIR axial images were obtained on a 1.5-T unit (8000/150/2 [TR/TE/ excitations], inversion time = 2200, field of view = 24 cm, matrix = 189x256, and 5-mm interleaved sections). Two observers rated VCSFA ... WebTurbulence caused by CSF flow resulted in abnormal mass-like lesion within the suprasellar cistern and third ventricle with high FLAIR and low T2 signal. The rest of the study shows … without obstruction to CSF absorption. a particular group of conditions with … raymond gubbay christmas 2022
Hyperintensity in the Subarachnoid Space on FLAIR MRI
WebThe "truncation" artifact should not be confused with CSF between normal nerves when a canal contains tumor. In evaluating MR images of the temporal bone, we observed an intracanalicular, central, thin, dark band nearly transversely oriented in some acoustic neuromas, especially small ones (Fig. 1) [1]. WebOct 1, 2001 · The authors compared high-signal-intensity flow-related artifacts present with a conventional two-dimensional (2D) fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) … WebBackground and purpose: Our purpose was to test a new variant of the fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) sequence that was designed to reduce CSF and blood flow artifacts by use of a non-slice-selective inversion pulse and k-space reordered by inversion time at each slice position (KRISP). Methods: With the KRISP FLAIR sequence, the slice … raymond guangzhou dmd
