Background: MRI assessment in multiple sclerosis (MS) focuses on the presence of typical white matter (WM) lesions. Neurodegeneration characterised by brain atrophy is recognised in the research field as an important prognostic factor.

Advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Glioblastoma: A Review [PDF]
INTRODUCTION In 2017, it is estimated that 26,070 patients will be diagnosed with a malignant primary brain tumor in the United States, with more than half having the diagnosis of glioblas- toma (GBM).1 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely ...

PURPOSEDiffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) - fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) mismatch was proven useful to time the onset of wake-up stroke; however, identifying the status of FLAIR imaging has been mostly subjective.

T1w/FLAIR ratio standardization as a myelin marker in MS patients
Introduction: Calculation of a T1w/T2w ratio was introduced as a proxy for myelin integrity in the brain of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Since nowadays 3D FLAIR is commonly used for lesion detection instead of T2w images, we introduce a T1w/FLAIR ...

Meta-analysis of death and myocardial infarction in the DEFINE-FLAIR and iFR-SWEDEHEART trials: a hypothesis generating note of caution [PDF]
In patients with coronary heart disease, revascularization can improve symptoms and in certain high-risk subgroups may improve prognosis. Coronary angiography provides anatomical information and the physiological significance of a stenosis can be ...

Background Patients with suspected brain lesions are usually evaluated by means of intravenous contrast materials. These lesions may demonstrate enhancement through different mechanisms. At most institutions, CE-T1WI is the preferred sequence. FLAIR is a

Utility of contrast-enhanced 3D STIR FLAIR imaging for evaluating pituitary adenomas at 3 Tesla
Purpose: To assess the usefulness of contrast-enhanced 3D STIR FLAIR imaging for evaluation of pituitary adenomas. Methods: Patients with pituitary adenomas underwent MR examinations including contrast-enhanced 3D STIR FLAIR and 2D T1-weighted (T1W ...

INTRODUCTION: At most institutions, the favored contrast MR sequence is T1-weighted imaging (T1WI). However, lesion enhancement is occasionally inconspicuous on T1WI.
