MRA-TOF(Magnetic Resonance Angiography - Time of Flight) is one of the imaging methods of MRI, and is widely used in the treatment of central nervous system diseases such as cerebrovascular disorders because it can depict cerebral blood vessels without using contrast media. However, the MRA-TOF method is based on the T1-weighted image of the Gradient Echo method, which has the disadvantage of obscuring the blood vessels in areas overlapping with high-signal lesions on the T1-weighted image, such as hematomas. In the MRA-TOF method, a saturation pulse is usually applied to the head side of the slab to suppress the venous signal, but it is also possible to suppress the arterial signal by applying a saturation pulse to the foot side of the slab (MRV-TOF method). By obtaining the difference image of both (MRA-MRV difference image), it is possible to selectively remove lesions that show high signal in the T1-weighted image and obtain a clear cerebrovascular depiction unaffected by hematoma. Since this method is useful in routine clinical diagnosis, it is already being performed at the discretion of the examining physician. In the future, we will accumulate cases of this method and make it the subject of research. In this study, we will verify the usefulness of a new method (MRA-MRV difference image) for depicting cerebral vascular motion independent of the presence of high-signal lesions on T1-weighted images, such as hematomas.
Efficacy
The usefulness of the images will be evaluated by conducting reading experiments with several diagnostic radiologists on the visibility of cerebral blood vessels in normal MRA-TOF images and MRA-MRV difference images.
