Diffusion imaging is an MRI method that produces in vivo magnetic resonance images of biological tissues sensitized with the local characteristics of molecular diffusion, generally water (but other moieties can also be investigated using MR spectroscopic approaches). [15] MRI can be made sensitive to the motion of molecules.
Lumbar provocative discography (also referred to as "discography" or discogram) is an invasive diagnostic procedure for evaluation for intervertebral disc pathology. It is usually reserved for persons with persistent, severe low back pain (LBP) who have abnormal spaces between vertebrae on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where other diagnostic tests have failed to reveal clear confirmation ...
[27] [28] The result of an MRE scan is a quantitative 3-D map of the tissue stiffness, as well as a conventional 3-D MRI image. One strength of MRE is the resulting 3-D elasticity map, which can cover an entire organ. [2] Because MRI is not limited by air or bone, it can access some tissues ultrasound cannot, notably the brain.
Images of CAA collected at 1.5 T. Left, conventional T2* (TE=20 ms), center, SWI processed magnitude image (TE=40 ms) and right, SWI phase image (TE=40 ms) Gradient recalled echo (GRE) imaging is the conventional way to detect hemorrhage in CAA , however SWI is a much more sensitive technique that can reveal many micro-hemorrhages that are ...
President Biden announced Monday that he had commuted the sentences of 37 of the 40 current federal death row inmates to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
