BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: MR imaging is the method of choice for pediatric
neuroimaging. Sedation is often needed to suppress patient motion and ensure diagnostic …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hyperintense FLAIR signal in the cerebral sulci of
anesthetized children is attributed to supplemental oxygen (fraction of inspired oxygen) but …

PURPOSE: To prospectively test the hypothesis that high levels of the fraction of inspired
oxygen (Fio2) during general anesthesia cause subarachnoid cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) …

OBJECTIVE. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) hyperintensity has been described on fluid-
attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging in anesthetized patients who underwent MR …

Discussion. Propofol is used with increasing frequency in adults for sedation during
diagnostic procedures. Increased signal intensity on T 2-weighted FLAIR sequences of MRI …

The authors present a prospective study of single-agent pediatric sedation regimens for
patients older than 2 years of age undergoing magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the …

PURPOSE: To determine whether increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) signal intensity is
seen on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance (MR) images in …

Introduction The effects of anesthesia are infrequently considered when interpreting
pediatric perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The objectives of this study were to …

Objective To describe the normally enhancing intracranial structures on fluid-attenuated
inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI and evaluate the usefulness of postcontrast FLAIR images …

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of two methods of providing sedation
for young children undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies on efficiency of …
