results stereoscopic displays of the nerves were obtained in all 24 elbows by vr, mip, and fiber tractography post-processing methods. the vr/mip post-processing methods were easier to perform compared to fiber tractography. there was no significant difference among the scores of fiber tracking and vr/mip reconstruction for single direction. the imaging quality scores of fiber tractography and ...

conclusions ti is an important parameter to consider in the relationship between si and nanoparticle concentrations. an increase in ti leads to a decrease in the range of linearity. results the results indicate that si depended on the concentration of nanoparticles and ti. in addition, si increased by increasing the tis ranging from 200 to 400 ms for all studied concentrations. the linear relat...

three major arteries normally originate from the aortic arch. variations of the aortic arch branches are observed in some cases. rare variation of the aortic arch branches is originated from the retroesophageal right subclavian (rrs) artery as the last branch of the aortic arch. variation of artery is possibly associated with the variation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. this research provide...

introduction as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) is too expensive and time consuming, its frequent implementation is difficult. the aim of this study is to evaluate repeatability of detecting visual cortex activity in fmri. materials and methods in this study, 15 normal volunteers (10 female, 5 male; mean age±sd: 24.7±3.8 years) attended. functional magnetic resonance images were ob...

background: back pain is a common patients' complaint, and its etiology is important because of different potential treatment approaches (based on causes). for a better diagnosis, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is widely used in clinical settings that may result in inappropriate requests. this study aims to evaluate the appropriateness of the lumbosacral mri requests in patients with back pai...

background and aims. although salivary gland tumors are not very common, early diagnosis and treatment is crucial because of their proximity to vital organs, and therefore, determining the efficacy of new imaging procedures becomes important. this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and color doppler ultrasonography parameters in the diagnosis and differenti...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background: thalassemia is an inherited disorder in which repeated blood transfusion is needed. this causes accumulation of iron in various organs. silymarin is a natural medicinal plant that has been used for centuries in the treatment of liver depositions. in this study, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of liver, which h...

background:  nowadays mri examinations have been widely used in clinical applications for many diagnoses. the use of contrast agent in mri improves lesion detection and characterization and causes more accurate diagnosis.  objectives: the aim of this study was comparing to optimal dose of magnevist contrast agent in modified t1w se (spin echo), t1w fse (fast spin echo) and t1w gre (gradient ech...

background: according to recent studies comparing magnetic resonance enterography (mre) with ileocolonoscopy for assessing inflammation of small bowel and colonic segments in adults with active crohn’s disease (cd), we aimed to compare the accuracy of these two diagnostic methods in iranian population. method: during 2013-2014 a follow-up study was done on 30 patients with active cd ina gastroe...
