Magnetic resonance neurography: technical considerations

Avneesh Chhabra et al. Neuroimaging Clin N Am. 2014 Feb.

Abstract

Proper performance of magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) is essential not only to make the examination easier to interpret but also for its accurate evaluation. This article outlines the technical considerations of MRN, various imaging pulse sequences available on current scanners, as well as their relative advantages and disadvantages. In addition, a guide to the optimal use of high-resolution and high-contrast MRN technique is provided, which will aid clinicians in attaining a good-quality examination.

Keywords: 1.5 T; 3 T; MR neurography; MRN; Technique.
