Comparison of High-Resolution MR Imaging and Digital Subtraction Angiography for the Characterization and Diagnosis of Intracranial Artery Disease

Fellows’ Journal Club Thirty-seven patients who had undergone both high-resolution MR imaging and DSA for intracranial artery disease were evaluated. The degree of stenosis and the minimal luminal diameter were independently measured by 2 observers on both DSA and high-resolution

Cervical Spinal Cord DTI Is Improved by Reduced FOV with Specific Balance between the Number of Diffusion Gradient Directions and Averages

Fellows’ Journal Club The authors evaluated multiple parameters of reduced-FOV DTI to optimize image quality. Fifteen healthy individuals underwent cervical spinal cord 3T MRI, including an anatomic 3D Multi-Echo Recombined Gradient Echo, high-resolution full-FOV DTI with a NEX of 3

Correlation of MRI Brain Injury Findings with Neonatal Clinical Factors in Infants with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

Fellows’ Journal Club The authors evaluated MRIs performed before hospital discharge in 53 infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia that were scored forbrain injury by 2 pediatric neuroradiologists. Potential associations with perinatal and clinical variables from the neonatal intensive care unit
