Purpose To compare the sensitivity of the hyperdense middle cerebral artery (MCA) sign between maximum intensity projection (MIP) and conventional averaged images in patients with acute focal neurological deficits with acute thromboembolic MCA occlus

Objective: Velopharyngeal dysfunction causes not only resonance problems (so called “hypernasality”) but also dysphagia particularly in the elderly. In our previous study, we developed a new inhaling training method to objectively improve velopha

A 75-year-old man with lung cancer undertook an 18F-FDG PET/CT for staging. He presented neurological symptoms immediately after the 30-minute scan. An emergent MRI study revealed hyperacute cerebral infarction with occlusion of a left MCA branch. At

PURPOSE We assessed what MR imaging parameters affected ringing artifacts during the arterial phase of gadoxetic acid-enhanced dynamic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS We tested various parameters, including imaging matrices, ch

Rapid acquisition relaxation-enhanced (RARE) sequences (Hennig et al., Magn. Reson. Med. 3, 823 (1986)) utilize one or several Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) echo trains to sample a number of k-space lines each repetition time TR. The technique can

We applied diffusion-sensitive echo planar (Instascan) imaging to study thermal changes caused by a Nd:YAG laser. Images of phantom materials and normal rabbit brain tissue in vivo, acquired in 150 ms, every 2s, clearly showed the dynamics of tempera

Substantial manipulation of tissue contrast can be achieved by varying the order in which phase-encode values are applied to individual echoes within a 128-echo single-shot rapid acquisition relaxation enhanced (RARE) sequence. Appropriate ordering c

We implemented a fast gradient echo (GRE) sequence with an echo-planar imaging (EPI) read-out (FGRE-ET) to conduct myocardial perfusion studies on a conventional scanner. The accuracy of combined perfusion and viability studies is evaluated in compar

We have proposed the use of MRI for monitoring and control of interstitial laser surgery, in order to improve the accuracy and reduce the invasiveness of these procedures. To expand the knowledge base about the MR appearance of laser-induced tissue d
