- Improving Multiple Sclerosis Plaque Detection Using a Semiautomated Assistive Approach
The authors evaluated and validated a semiautomated software platform to facilitate detection of new lesions and improved MS lesions. Two neuroradiologists retrospectively assessed 161 MR imaging comparison study pairs acquired between 2009 and 2011. More comparison study pairs with new lesions and improved lesions were recorded by using the software compared with original radiology reports.
- Arterial Spin-Labeling Parameters Influence Signal Variability and Estimated Regional Relative Cerebral Blood Flow in Normal Aging and Mild Cognitive Impairment: FAIR versus PICORE Techniques
In healthy controls and 43 patients with mild cognitive impairment, 2 pulsed ASL sequences were performed at 3T: proximal inversion with a control for off-resonance effects (PICORE) and the flow-sensitive alternating inversion recovery technique (FAIR). FAIR had higher estimated relative CBF and lower interindividual variability than PICORE.
