PURPOSE To compare lesion-to-background contrast with and without magnetization
transfer (MT) in lesions of the head and neck. METHODS Twenty lesions (16 malignant, 4 …

PURPOSE To determine the importance of obtaining precontrast T1-weighted magnetization
transfer (MT) MR images for better interpretation contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MT …

Purpose To evaluate normal brain structures and various brain lesions by magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging with magnetization transfer (MT) under the use of paramagnetic …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES.: This study was undertaken to clarify the difference in
signal pattern on contrast material-enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) …

In this study, the magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) on MR images of several brain
tumors and the correlation between MTC and tumors' histologic features were investigated …

Two magnetization transfer (MT) contrast effects, a T2-like effect and the improved contrast
observed when gadolinium is used with MT, are combined in a single sequence. Forty …

PURPOSE We developed and evaluated clinically T1-weighted three-dimensional gradient-
echo magnetization transfer (MT) sequences for contrast-enhanced MR imaging of the brain …

PURPOSE To compare image contrast and lesion conspicuity of enhancing intracranial
lesions obtained with T1-weighted and magnetization transfer T1-weighted spin-echo …

PURPOSE To study the potential combined application of gadolinium and magnetization
transfer in the MR imaging of intracranial tumors. METHODS Twenty-two patients were …

Magnetization transfer, a new technique for improving image contrast in magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging, is based on application of off-resonance radio-frequency pulses …
