Q

True or False: T2-weighted images are better for detecting tumors than T1-weighted images.

17
Q

Which MRI sequence has the shortest echo time?

A

T1-weighted sequence

18
Q

Fill in the blank: In T1-weighted images, water appears _______.

19
Q

What is the primary characteristic of fat on T1-weighted images?

A

It appears bright.

20
Q

Multiple Choice: Which sequence is most sensitive to changes in tissue water content? A) T1 B) T2 C) Proton Density D) FLAIR

21
Q

What is the significance of the ‘short tau inversion recovery’ (STIR) sequence?

A

It suppresses fat signals to highlight edema.

22
Q

True or False: The longer the TR, the greater the T1 weighting of the image.

23
Q

What type of MRI sequence would be used for musculoskeletal imaging?

A

Proton Density-weighted sequence

24
Q

Fill in the blank: In T1-weighted images, _______ appears dark due to its low density.

25
What is the main use of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in MRI?
To assess the movement of water molecules in tissues.
26
True or False: T2-weighted images are less sensitive to artifacts than T1-weighted images.
False
27
What does the 'contrast-to-noise ratio' (CNR) indicate in MRI?
The ability to distinguish between different tissues in an image.
28
Multiple Choice: Which type of tissue typically appears dark on T2-weighted images? A) Fat B) Muscle C) Bone D) Air
C) Bone
29
What is the typical appearance of hemorrhage on T1-weighted images?
It appears bright due to the presence of methemoglobin.
30
