Abstract:
We report a case of post-operative frontal basal encephalocoele evaluated using a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence, fast inversion recovery for myelin suppression (FIRMS). FIRMS was developed to enhance the differentiation between grey and white matter. In this case, the sequence was beneficial in distinguishing the encephalocoele from adjacent nasal mucosa and secretions.
