conclusion fs t2 w and ce fs t1 w sequences of axial planes were the most useful sequences in determination of active sacroiliitis. therefore, in patients with renal failure or allergy to contrast media, fs t2 wi can be obtained to detect active sacroiliitis. objectives the aim of this retrospective study was to assess the value of different magnetic resonance imaging (mri) sequences in evaluat...

conclusion adrenal iron in β-tm can be reliably measured in 3 tesla mri. the results highlight the absence of correlation between adrenal iron deposition both with serum ferritin and hepatic iron. results among patients, there was no significant correlation between plasma ferritin and adrenal t2*. significant difference was detected among t2* values of adrenals between the patient and control g...

introduction: the use of high-cost and high-tech magnetic resonance imaging (mri) has expanded over the past decade. a recently conducted research reported various causes with regard to their own country and healthcare system included aging population and advances in diagnostic technologies which could result in diagnostic services to become more applicable in clinical arena. increasing number ...

cerebral palsy is the most common chronic motor disorder of childhood, that affecting approximately 3 infants per 1000 live-births. the risk of brain injuries that potentially cause cerebral palsy has amplified with increasing in survival rates for preterm infants. in addition cerebral palsy has a huge economic impact, to immeasurable health, social, and psychological problems that affected chi...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI)-diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) mismatch paradigm is widely used in stroke imaging studies. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is an alternative perfusion method that does not require contrast. This study compares the agreement of ASL-DWI and PWI-DWI mismatch classification in patients with stroke. METHODS This was a retrospective study d...

Introduction: Staff and patient Movement in static magnetic field MRI scanner induces current density in the human tissues, so cause biologic effects in people. The aim of this study was the Modelling of current density induced by moving individual with different velocities in static magnetic field of magnetic resonance imaging. Materials and Methods: current ...

a 36-year-old woman, diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (sle), showed bulbar symptoms including impaired memory, slurred speech and swallowing difficulty 7 days before admission. magnetic resonance imaging (mri) showed symmetric confluent hyperintensities in the bilateral cerebral white matter on t2 weighted imaging (t2-wi), extended into the genu of the internal capsule and the crus c...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We investigated 2 methods of measuring MR imaging perfusion-diffusion mismatch to determine whether reliability is improved by direct measurement on a single, blended map. MATERIALS AND METHODS Image software was used for measurement of lesion volumes from diffusion-weighted images (DWI) and mean transit time (MTT) calculated from perfusion-weighted (PWI) images on 64 p...
