Need to check for my middle/inner ear on my MRI
Hello. I'm new to this forum and I was wondering if I can share MRI images for a professional's opinion here. If not here, I'd like to know whether there is a forum for this. rnrnI have been having serious vertigo issues (intense spinning) for weeks. Although it has improved dramatically and still is in terms of the nausea and the vertigo attacks, I'm still experiencing regular dizziness, and looking sideways and driving is a bit tricky. I suspected it could have something to do with the inner or middle ear, so I had a brain MRI and made sure to ask for analysis of the inner and middle ear and any associated nerves. When I picked up my MRI results today, all that showed as abnormal was the sinuses with cyst in the right sphenoid sinus. To make sure the middle and inner ear were analyzed I asked the desk woman. She didn't know, made some calls and found out they apparently were not analyzed. rnrnI got the CD, retrieved my ancient PC laptop that is turtle slow and tried to check for images. Don' t know what to check for and having difficulty navigating. The images are divided into T1 TSE Ax, T2 FS AX, T2 AX SPACE IA, FLAIR COR, 2 image fors DIFF AX (ANGLE, and mIP images. I'm specifically trying to rule out conditions that sounded a lot like what I'm experiencing: labyrinthitis and vestibular neuritis. Thank you.

Toshiba Vantage Titan 3T
While planning vertebral discs for axial cuts is there any way to align the slices perpendicularly on coronal plane? Currently I have to manually align them on the vertebral column which is tedious and sometimes erroneous.

I have worked on Siemens Avanto and there is option to select the slice to align perpendicular so that I only have to pay attention to one plane while in Toshiba the task is a bit more complicated. Though there is an option of aligning all slices perpendicularly but it does not work or may be I am doing something wrong.

PCMRI
Hi everybody

I am curious to understand a bit better what the formula that it is used in PCMRI for relating the change of phase and the velocity assume ...

As far I have unterstand that it is assumed the phase of a moving particle can be measured at two time instants, i am right? Does this not assume we can "track" the particle? Does this not "contradict" the fact that we can only compare phases that we measure at the same fixed place?

Thanks,

C.

Vibrant Sound Bridge and MRI
Hello everyone,
I have a Vibrant Soundbridge implanted on both sides of my skull, which contain a magnet. I use them due to severe hearing impairment.
Now the question is, I was told that MRI was prohibited for patients with a Vibrant Soundbridge.
Could anyone suggest an alternative to this problem please? Is there another equipment allowing me to have the conclusions normally obtained from MRI? My problem is an accident to my spinal cord, which requires further investigation using an MRI.
I would appreciate any help!
Thanks a lot

ARMRIT in California?
Facts and performance do support the indisputable fact that ARMRIT professionals have a greater depth of study and assessment of their technique. ARRT techs are grounded in the modality involving radiation. Cross-training is never the same as dedicated didactic and hands on training with the longest externship vis-a-vis all other modalities...and that is ARMRIT.
California is recognizing ARMRIT. Maybe not at the rate it deserves, especially in hospitals. But it is progressing. ARRT has had a monopoly as a registry. Ultrasound was correct in setting up its own registry. ARMRIT is exercising that right as well; as well it should considering it is a non-ionizing modality to begin with. Several times I have come across ARRT techs who cross-trained for MRI and continually demonstrate "button-pushing", time-cutting habits. I have come across ARRT techs who are employed and doing CT work who are not even certified to do CT!!
The scope of ARRT is wide and the medical system is too privatized to monitor abuses of ARRT techs practicing as non-certified CT or MRI personnel under the umbrella of another certified employee. This is a major loophole that is absolutely doing a great disservice to patients and misrepresenting imaging professionals across the board.
And to those who have stated that ARMRIT is taking away jobs from ARRT.....well, if the qualifications fit the position, then what is the issue with the more qualified, better trained professional being offered the position?
Facilities are recognizing the value of an MRI professional with dedicated training. I was offered a staff technologist position before I even took my boards; the first time in this company's history to employ ARMRIT over ARRT.
During my first 3 months as an employed MRI technologist, I quickly recognized several inefficiencies within many existing protocols used daily at the facility for which I worked. I could not understand how for so long before I started work there, that these inaccurate and unrefined sequences could not have been addressed. Well, an ARRT tech, cross-trained in MRI wrote them.
No disrespect to ARRT. This is not a critique but an observation of the disparity of the domination of ARRT as a registry for modalities it should not have jurisdiction over.
