High-resolution visualization of cervical spine anatomy using 3D DESS at 7-T MRI: a cohort study in asymptomatic volunteers.

OBJECTIVE To validate the feasibility of a three-dimensional dual-echo-steady-state (3D-DESS) sequence at 7-T MRI to reliably depict the detailed anatomy in the cervical spine. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-eight asymptomatic volunteers (age 36.4 ± 11.6 years) were imaged, using a 3D-DESS sequence at 7-T MRI. The cou...

Evaluation of a CT-like Multi-Echo 3D Gradient-Echo MR Sequence (FRACTURE) for Structural Assessment of the Sacroiliac Joints in Spondyloarthritis: Comparison with CT and T1-Weighted MR Imaging

CT remains the imaging reference standard for evaluating structural sacroiliac joint (SIJ) lesions in spondyloarthropathy (SpA), but its use is limited by ionizing radiation. This retrospective single-center study evaluated a CT-like multi-echo 3D gradient-echo MRI sequence (FRACTURE) for structural SIJ assessment by c...

Evaluation of paraspinal muscle quality using Hounsfield unit in simple elliptical regions of interest: correlation with magnetic resonance imaging-based intramuscular fat infiltration in spine surgery patients

Elliptical ROI-based HU measurements may reliably screen paraspinal muscle fat infiltration in erector spinae and multifidus using standard PACS, and specific thresholds may allow practical preoperative evaluation without additional costs or radiation.

Comparative performance of 7T MRI sequences for central vein sign detection in multiple sclerosis: a prospective study.

BACKGROUND The central vein sign (CVS) has been incorporated into the 2024 McDonald criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis. However, the optimal MRI sequence for detecting CVS at 7T remains unclear due to limited direct comparisons. This study aimed to perform a head-to-head comparison of gradient-recalled echo...

Systematic Review on Contrast-Enhanced Duplex Ultrasound for Below-Knee Arterial Imaging

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) affects 2% to 4% of the general population, increasing to 15% in those aged 70 years or older. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) has long been established as the gold standard for imaging the lower limb accurately; however, this is not without complications and risks. At presen...
