Background MS is common demyelinating disease in which standard T2 and 2D-FLAIR MRI sequences play important role in its diagnosis. Recently, 3D-FLAIR sequence is used and has a role that is evaluated compared to standard sequences.

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 ...

Transient ischemic attack as the initial presentation of Takayasu arteritis in a young woman: A case report [PDF]
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a challenging chronic inflammatory vasculitis of large vessels with unknown etiology. It usually affects the aorta and its main branches and in few cases it affects other arteries like pulmonary and coronary.

The added value of double inversion recovery (DIR) sequence compared to fluid attenuation inversion recovery (FLAIR) in identifying multiple sclerosis lesions and different cortical subtypes [PDF]
Background. There is a rising concern about multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions that occur in the cortical gray matter (GM), owing to its direct relationship with the disability and cognition dysfunction that occur during the MS course.

A GAN-Based Multi-Sensor Data Augmentation Technique for CNC Machine Tool Wear Prediction
The prediction of CNC machine tool wear is limited due to the scarcity of data in industry. A sufficient amount of experimental and real-live factory data is missing to train accurate supervised machine learning prediction models.

Reducing Slipstream Velocities Experienced in Proximity to High-Speed Trains
Slipstream wake structures generated by the passing of high-speed rail vehicles represent a hazard to passengers and workers in close proximity. In this article, the possibility of reducing peak slipstream velocities through the implementation of angled ...

Role of Shape and Kinematics in the Hydrodynamics of a Fish-like Oscillating Hydrofoil
In the present two-dimensional numerical study, we investigate the roles of geometrical parameters of a hydrofoil (shape/curvature of the leading and trailing edges and thickness) and kinematic parameters (phase difference between heave and pitch (ϕ)) on

Value of Contrast-Enhanced FLAIR Images for the Depiction of Papilledema
Teaching Point: Contrast-enhanced FLAIR images have unsurpassed value for the radiological depiction of hypertensive papilledema. FLAIR acquisition should therefore be performed after intravenous contrast, especially in the of work-up of intracranial ...

Synthetic FLAIR as a Substitute for FLAIR Sequence in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background In acute ischemic stroke (AIS), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) is used for treatment decisions when onset time is unknown. Synthetic FLAIR could be generated with deep learning from information embedded in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and could replace acquired FLAIR sequence (real FLAIR) and shorten MRI duration. Purpose To
