Imaging of the sacral plexus
We are students Technical Medicine from Twente University and are researching the imaging of the anatomical variation of the sacral plexus. This means the imaging of nerves in a fatty/muscle enviroment with a diameter below 1 mm.rnrnWe are interested in different MR-sequences that will show these small nerves (at the moment we came up with MP(2)Rage, STIR, normal SE T1 and DW) Does anybody can provide us why we should or shouldn't use one of these sequences. Or maybe somebody does have a better suggestion?rnrnAlso we were planning to combine spinal and abdominal coils (phased-array RF coils), does this depict the sacral plexus in a good way?rnrnWe also thought about using a 7T MRI scanner, because of the high spatial resolution. Is this a possibility or does it give to much artifacts? Or is the spatial resolution in a 3T machine enough for such small nerves?rnrnThanks in advance!

information needed
Andre,

You can do a PD sagittal and/or T1 coronal. These two would give you meniscii tears, just magnify them and brighten the image to show the tear. You can also try the T2 STIR coronal to show some swelling and bone contusion. Check with your rad to find out proper protocols.

STIR sequences
Well, a STIR technique is T1 weighted, so, TR will be short.

Whole Body Scan MRI
Can anyone tell me what FOV is used on a 2 year old whole body scan? , On an adult whole body scan ? , and how many table moving stations are needed for an adult whole body scan? I am doing a coronal Stir,T1 FFE coronal and a SSFSE T2W coronal.
