PURPOSE Our objective was to determine whether a multisection technique, diffusion-
weighted half-Fourier single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) imaging, can compensate for the …

PURPOSE Our purpose was to evaluate the clinical efficacy, sensitivity, and specificity of
echo-planar diffusion-weighted MR imaging in patients with acute infarction. METHODS We …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Some investigators have proposed that either calculated
diffusion trace images or apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps, which require imaging …

PURPOSE: The authors evaluated a phase-navigated spin-echo (SE) motion-correction
sequence for use at diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging after …

PURPOSE: To determine if diffusion-and T2-weighted echo-planar magnetic resonance
(MR) imaging can be used to detect acute hemorrhagic stroke and to differentiate …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recent technological advances in MR instrumentation
allow acquisition of whole-brain diffusion-weighted MR scans to be obtained with b values …

PURPOSE: To evaluate acute stroke with conventional, multisection diffusion-weighted
(DW), and hemodynamically weighted (HW) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging …

The major clinical use of diffusion-weighted imaging to date has been in evaluation of
cerebral infarction, at which it excels. However, diffusion-weighted imaging has also shown …

Abstract Diffusion-weighted (DWI) echo-planar (EPI) MRI has been used for imaging acute
ischaemic stroke. We used DWI and conventional spin-echo (SE) MRI to study the dynamics …

Our objective was to evaluate a new scanning method, MR line scan diffusion imaging, and
assess the apparent diffusion coefficient in the brains of healthy subjects and stroke patients …
