pubmed:abstractText |
The unmatched soft tissue contrast provided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has made it the modality of choice for many neuroimaging examinations. The fact that signal intensity in MRI depends on many parameters, including spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation times, proton density, and velocity, makes it possible to highlight various pathologies by appropriate choice of pulse sequences and pulse sequence parameters. It is somewhat overwhelming however, to filter through various pulse sequences and parameters in order to understand how their selection affects image contrast. This brief review is intended to highlight common pulse sequences and parameters as well as introduce new techniques currently being released for clinical use.
