Magnetic Resonance Imaging

7.4K
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Neuroimaging
  • Peripheral Nerve Imaging

Background:

  • Peripheral nerve (PN) imaging presents significant challenges.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography are primary diagnostic modalities for PNs.
  • Both conventional and advanced MRI techniques are crucial for comprehensive PN assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of technical parameters, pulse sequences, and protocols for peripheral nerve imaging.
  • To highlight the roles of conventional and advanced MRI techniques in evaluating PNs.
  • To offer guidance on avoiding common pitfalls in peripheral nerve imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing routine MRI sequences for anatomical definition and identifying signal abnormalities.
  • Employing selective techniques like 3D cranial nerve imaging (CRANI) and 3D NerveVIEW for detailed evaluation.
  • Applying advanced functional MR neurography sequences, including diffusion tensor imaging tractography and T2 mapping, for microscopic-level assessment.

Main Results:

  • Routine MRI sequences excel at anatomical definition and detecting focal/diffuse nerve T2 signal abnormalities.
  • Selective MRI techniques provide enhanced visualization of normal and pathological nerve states.
  • Advanced functional sequences offer quantitative parameters for microscopic assessment of PNs.

Conclusions:

  • A combination of conventional and advanced MRI techniques is essential for thorough peripheral nerve evaluation.
  • Advanced MR neurography sequences provide valuable microscopic insights into nerve pathophysiology.
  • Understanding technical parameters and protocols is crucial for accurate peripheral nerve imaging and avoiding pitfalls.
