The last few decades have seen extraordinary advances in the field of multiple sclerosis
(MS), with notable developments in neuroimaging. The increased availability of MRI and …

Background Spinal imaging in multiple sclerosis remains challenging because of its small
size and numerous artifacts. Objective To compare 3D Phase-Sensitive Inversion Recovery …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging is the modality of choice to
detect spinal cord lesions in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). However, this imaging is …

Background and purpose To compare 3D-Fast Gray Matter Acquisition with Phase Sensitive
Inversion Recovery (3D-FGAPSIR) with conventional 3D-Short-Tau Inversion Recovery (3D …

Diseases of the spinal cord often have devastating consequences and imaging studies are
indispensable for their diagnosis. The fundamental imaging technique to evaluate these …

We read with interest the paper published on-line by Chokshi et al1 regarding whether 3D
T2 sampling perfection with application-optimized contrasts by using flip angle evolution …

Background In primary studies with 3 T Magnets, phase sensitive reconstruction of T1-
weighted inversion recovery (PSIR) have showed ability to depict the cervical multiple …

Objective T2 inversion sequence is used in routine radiology practice mainly to heighten
contrast resolution within the region to be studied but no evidence exists in current literature …

Objective This study aims at identifying, classifying, and measuring the frequency the
different artifacts that show up in the images of the Sagittal T1 Fluid Attenuated Inversion …

Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic reliability of PSIR sequence as compared to STIR in
detection & counting of MS plaques in cervical cord and assess inter and intra-observer …
