INTERNAL STANDARD
- A medical technique primarily used in radiology to VISUALIZE the structure and function of the body
- it provides much GREATER CONTRAST between the different soft tissues of the body than does computed tomography (CT scan), making it especially useful in nuerological, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and oncological imaging
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
SPECIALIZED MRI
- measures the DIFFUSION of WATER MOLECULES in biological tissues
DIFFUSION MRI
SPECIALIZED MRI
DIFFUSION MRI:
* enables BRAIN MAPPING of fiber directions to examine the connectivity of different regions of the brain or to examine areas of NEURAL DEGENERATION (MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS) and demyelination in diseases
DIFFUSION TENSOR IMAGING
DTI
SPECIALIZED MRI
DIFFUSION MRI:
* is HIGHLY SENSITIVE to the changes occuring in the lesions following an ISCHEMIC STROKE
DIFFUSION WEIGHTED IMAGING
DWI
SPECIALIZED MRI
- it is used to generate pictures of the ARTERIES in order to evaluate them for STENOSIS or ANEURYSM
MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY
MRA
SPECIALIZED MRI
MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY:
NARROWING of arteries
STENOSIS
SPECIALIZED MRI
MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY:
BULGING in blood vessels
ANEURYSMS
SPECIALIZED MRI
- It is used to measure the levels of DIFFERENT METABOLITES in body tissues
- this is used to diagnose certain METABOLIC DISORDERS, especially those affecting the brain, as well as to provide information on TUMOR metabolism
MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY
MRS
SPECIALIZED MRI
MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY:
is also known as
3
- in-vivo MRS
- MRS imaging
- volume selective NMR spectroscopy
SPECIALIZED MRI
- measures signal changes in the brain that are due to changing NEURAL ACTIVITY
- Maps ACTIVE brain region during tasks
FUNCTIONAL MRI (fMRI)
SPECIALIZED MRI
- it is utilized to specifically LOCATE TUMORS within the body in preparation for radiation therapy treatments
RADIATION THERAPY SIMULATION
SPECIALIZED MRI
- type of MRI that is well-suited for “INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY” where the images produced by the MRI scanner are used to guide MINIMALLY-INVASIVE PROCEDURES
- a SPECIALIZED GROWING SUBSET is that of INTRAOPERATIVE MRI in which the MRI is used in the surgical process
INTERVENTIONAL MRI
