All patients are reviewed for contraindications prior to MRI scanning. Medical devices and implants are categorized as MR Safe, MR Conditional or MR Unsafe: [6] MR-Safe – The device or implant is completely non-magnetic, non-electrically conductive, and non-RF reactive, eliminating all of the primary potential threats during an MRI procedure.
Amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) are abnormal differences seen in magnetic resonance imaging of the brain in patients with Alzheimer's disease.ARIA is associated with anti-amyloid drugs, particularly human monoclonal antibodies such as aducanumab. [1]
Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), also called Benson's syndrome, is a rare form of dementia which is considered a visual variant or an atypical variant of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

The standard dose is about the same, 1–2 mg per pound of body weight, but a slightly higher dose of 3 mg per pound may be helpful with some dogs. (This is higher than the dose recommended, but ...
Positron emission tomography–magnetic resonance imaging (PET–MRI) is a hybrid imaging technology that incorporates magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) soft tissue morphological imaging and positron emission tomography (PET) functional imaging. [1] The combination of PET and MRI was mentioned in a 1991 Phd thesis by R. Raylman. [2]
