  2. Current Procedural Terminology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_Procedural_Terminology

    The CPT code revisions in 2013 were part of a periodic five-year review of codes. Some psychotherapy codes changed numbers, for example 90806 changed to 90834 for individual psychotherapy of a similar duration. Add-on codes were created for the complexity of communication about procedures.

  3. Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_Common...

    HCPCS includes three levels of codes: Level I consists of the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and is numeric.; Level II codes are alphanumeric and primarily include non-physician services such as ambulance services and prosthetic devices, and represent items and supplies and non-physician services, not covered by CPT-4 codes (Level I).

  4. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging...

    The first study of the human brain at 3.0 T was published in 1994, [13] and in 1998 at 8 T. [14] Studies of the human brain have been performed at 9.4 T (2006) [15] and up to 10.5 T (2019). [16] Paul Lauterbur and Sir Peter Mansfield were awarded the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning MRI.

  5. Magnetic resonance neurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_neurography

    The most significant impact of magnetic resonance neurography is on the evaluation of the large proximal nerve elements such as the brachial plexus (the nerves between the cervical spine and the underarm that innervate shoulder, arm and hand), [9] the lumbosacral plexus (nerves between the lumbosacral spine and legs), the sciatic nerve in the pelvis, [10] as well as other nerves such as the ...

  6. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-weighted...

    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]

  7. Functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the brain

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_magnetic...

    Like in vivo MRS, fMRS can probe different nuclei, such as hydrogen (1 H) and carbon (13 C). The 1 H nucleus is the most sensitive and is most commonly used to measure metabolite concentrations and concentration dynamics, whereas 13 C is best suited for characterizing fluxes and pathways of brain metabolism.

  8. Cerebrospinal fluid flow MRI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrospinal_Fluid_Flow_MRI

    The key to Phase-contrast MRI (PC-MRI) is the use of a bipolar gradient. [4] A bipolar gradient has equal positive and negative magnitudes that are applied for the same time duration. The bipolar gradient in PC-MRI is put in a sequence after RF excitation but before data collection during the echo time of the generic MRI modality.

  9. Computed tomography of the head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Computed_tomography_of_the_head

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head provides superior information as compared to CT scans when seeking information about headache to confirm a diagnosis of neoplasm, vascular disease, posterior cranial fossa lesions, cervicomedullary lesions, or intracranial pressure disorders. [9]
