BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Synthetic MRI enables the generation of various contrast-
weighted images and quantitative data in a reasonable scanning time. We aimed to use …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the value of whole body MR imaging in patients with
neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). MATERIALS AND METHODS: 24 patients (15–59 years; …

PURPOSE Our objective was to determine the usefulness of routine administration of
contrast material in brain MR imaging for the evaluation of areas of probable myelin …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: After an early progression of signal intensity changes in
T2-weighted MR images, also known as “neurofibromatosis bright objects,” in patients with …

Purpose To determine the role of MR spectroscopy in the differential diagnosis of focal brain
lesions in neurofibromatosis type 1. Materials and methods Fifteen patients with …

Purpose: To develop a three-dimensional (3D) segmentation and computerized volumetry
technique for use in the assessment of neurofibromatosis and to assess the ability of this …

Although computed tomography (CT) provides a major imaging advance over conventional
radiography and tomography in examining the whole body, the development of magnetic …

To determine whether differences exist between neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) patients
with or without focal lesions and healthy normal volunteers in the metabolite ratios of normal …

Purpose: The intracranial lesions of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) have variable
pathology and growth based on molecular genetics. Because of this variable pathology and …

Purpose To evaluate whether patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)—a multisystem
neurodevelopmental disorder with myriad imaging manifestations, including focal transient …
