1
Results: The quality of diffusion- weighted images diminished as the b value increased.
2
The suspected lesions on T2- weighted images were marked with a red circle.
3
Magnetic resonance imaging analysis revealed an unique mosaic pattern on T2- weighted images.
4
Nearly all the tophi were of intermediate signal intensity on T1- weighted images.
5
The physis was most conspicuous on gradient-recalled-echo and fat-suppressed spin-echo proton-density- weighted images.
6
However, no subject showed increased signal intensities on proton density- weighted images.
7
MAST improves significantly the quality of T2- weighted images, especially in children.
8
Proton density and T2- weighted images best reveal associated metaphyseal and soft tissue changes.
9
T1- weighted images show low signal intensity GRL and variable signal intensity bony bridges.
10
Results: The image contrast obtained was similar to that of standard spin-echo T1- weighted images.
11
In all cases, a localized hypointense area was present on plain spin-echo T1- weighted images.
12
Volumetric measurements from high resolution T1- weighted images were also performed.
13
Perfusion- weighted images were collected using a GE 3T MR system.
14
The mass showed irregular enhancement on fat-suppressed T1- weighted images after administration of gadopentate dimeglumine.
15
Marrow lesions also showed increased signal intensity on T2- weighted images.
16
The cartilaginous epiphysis had a lower signal intensity than the physis on T2- weighted images.
