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!

Math equation
Can some one help me w/this question.

From the following parameters what will the scan time be, in minutes, to acquire data?

TR 2000msec FREQUENCY STEPS 256
TE 60msec NEX 2
T1 800msec FLIP ANGLE 90
pixel .95x.95mm PHASE STEPS 192

THANKS

MRI registry equations
I'm studying for the registry with the help of the MIC registry review program. I think my mind has turned to mush. I can not figure out the answer to this question or find an equation to help me. Is there anyone out there who can help?!!
"In an ideal 1.0T magnet with perfect homogeneity, if a proton experiences a magnetic field of 1.006T and is positioned 0.5 meter along the positive z-direction and centered along the x and y directions, the z-gradient amplitude is________mT/m."

PCA aliasing problem
This is not spatial aliasing I am talking about, but velocity aliasing. This means that when your velocity encoding parameter is set to 100 cm/s and true velocity in a certain pixel is 120 cm/s, the measured velocity will be -80 cm/s.

In my problem however, with a velocity encoding parameter of 100 cm/s, in certain pixels I measure a velocity of around -60 cm/s where an actual velocity of 40 cm/s exists, which is a real mystery to me.

I don't think increasing FOV will prevent this from happening. Maybe it has something to do with velocity aliasing in other parts of the FOV, where true flow velocity of 110-120 cm/s exists, but I wouldn't know why. Anyone? Thanks.

Gradient modes
You pay for the noise reduction; the parameter 'whisper' reduces the gradient performance. Db/dt (and the noise of the scanner is depended on db/dt) is directly proportional to the gradient performance (slew rate).
