Imaging optic neuritis
Hi,

I had a good experience with coronal FLAIR SPIR, FLAIR wtih FAT SAT. In chronic stages it´s even better than contrast enhanced, STIR and other sequences...

Breast MRI selection-PLEASE HELP!
Hi, i am new here..if this is in the wrong forum, PLEASE relocate, THANK YOU!!

I am not familiar with Breast MRIs and i need an advice on the most up todate Breast MRI as i may have b.cancer.

I have family history, maternal side and dense breast, thus the MRI.

I was offered 1) Siemens MAGNETOM Espree 1.5T

2) The Aurora® 1.5T Dedicated Breast MRI System with Bilateral 3-D SpiralRODEO™

3) Phyllips 3T Breast MRI

PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!!! Which one and WHY?

THANK YOU!!!
Eva.

ASTM labeling guidlines for all portable devices
Hello All,
I am currently working though some safety issues we are have having at the hospital where I oversee MRI. It is the wish of the radiologist per the ASTM standard supported by the AJR (ASTM F2503)that "items that may be brought into the MR environment be permanently marked to indicate the MR invironment to which a specific item may safely be exposed" Our radiologist want every IV pole, pump, respiratory device - anything that might end up near the MR - be labeled. I am wondering is anyone else doing the same thing?

Geometric distortion
Dear Listers,

I have some questions about the image distortions in MRI:

1) Are the magnetic field inhomogeneities the only cause of image distortions? Does RF-inhomogeneities cause distortions or just signal inaccuracies?

There are other factors that can affect the /amount/ of distortion. Run an EPI sequence and change the bandwidth and see the image change shape.

There are other causes of image distortion which are not necessarily directly related to field homogeneity.

It is a complicated question you are asking here!


2) Is it accurate to say that a spiral sequence would not have distortion due to magnetic field inhomogeneity(, but it would have blurring). Would there be image geometric distortions with a spiral imaging?


I guess you are talking about spiral filling of k-space?? The sampling time reduction will help to reduce distortion to some extent.
