Abstract

MR imaging at 0.6 T was performed in 22 patients with acute (less than 7 days) intracranial hemorrhage to determine the efficacy of prolongation of the interecho interval, which has been demonstrated to enhance T2 shortening in vitro, as a method to improve the detection of hemorrhage in clinical imaging. The protocol included 750/33 (TR/TE), 2150/60,120 (short interecho interval of 60 msec), and 2150/120 (long interecho interval of 120 msec) sequences. Visual comparisons of the 2150/120 images obtained with the short and long interecho intervals demonstrated no difference in the degree of hypointensity in 21 of 22 cases. Quantitative comparisons demonstrated no statistically significant difference in the degree of maximal hypointensity, in the ease of detectability of hypointensity, or in the overall image contrast in 16 of 22 cases. We conclude that prolongation of the interecho interval is not a clinically useful technique to improve the detection of acute hemorrhage.
