Isotropic Imaging of the Wrist at 1.5T using 3D-FSE-Cube

چکیده
INTRODUCTION: MRI with two-dimensional fast spin-echo (2D-FSE) requires multiple acquisition planes because of slice gaps and partial-volume artifacts. Volumetric acquisitions with isotropic resolution overcome these limitations, allowing reformations in arbitrary imaging planes from a single acquisition [1-3]. A 3D isotropic fast spin-echo sequence (3D-FSE-Cube) was compared with conventional 2D-FSE in the wrist at 1.5T.

PURPOSE To evaluate the diagnostic performance of three-dimensional fast spin-echo (3D FSE-Cube) without fat suppression (NFS) for detecting knee lesions, using comparison to 3D FSE-Cube with fat suppression (FS). MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred twenty-four patients who underwent 1.5T knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and 25 subsequent arthroscopic surgeries were retrospectively r...
متن کاملIsotropic MRI of the Upper Extremity with 3D-FSE-Cube
Introduction Musculoskeletal MRI is commonly done with two-dimensional fast-spin-echo (2D-FSE) and multiple acquisition planes. This results in anisotropic voxels, partial volume artifact and slice gaps. Three-dimensional fast-spin-echo (3D-FSE-Cube), allows for isotropic voxel acquisition with FSE contrast, diminishing the drawbacks of 2D-FSE while reducing exam time and allowing for image ref...
متن کاملEvaluation of Intraneural Ganglion Cysts Using 3D FSE-Cube
Purpose: It is often difficult to definitively diagnose intraneural ganglion cysts with conventional MR imaging and to identify the origin of the cyst in a joint via what may often be a subtle connection [1]. Identification of the joint connection has important clinical implications if it is not addressed surgically, such as: cyst recurrence, incomplete patient recovery, and suboptimal operativ...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the accuracy of rectal cancer restaging after neoadjuvant therapy with 3D CUBE sequence with 2D T2-weighted fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence. METHODS This retrospective study comprised 72 patients with rectal cancer confirmed by colonoscopy and biopsy. After neoadjuvant therapy, all patients underwent pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination at 1....
متن کاملAre 3D FSE MRI sequences of the knee at 1.5 T effective in the detection of meniscal and ligament tears? How useful are they?
Radiol Bras. 2016 Mar/Abr;49(2):V–VI The use of fast spin-echo (FSE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences is the most versatile way of evaluating the musculoskeletal system. Anisotropic, two-dimensional (2D) sequences have greater resolution in the acquisition plane whereas the voxel resolution in isotropic three-dimensional (3D) volumetric sequences is the same in all planes with no loss...
