Increased-Contrast, High-Spatial-Resolution, Diffusion-weighted, Spin-Echo, Echo-planar Imaging
1999
An insertable head gradient coil with a maximum gradient amplitude of 45 mT/m and a rise time of 150 μsec along all three major axes was used to collect high-spatial-resolution, single-shot, spin-echo, echo-planar, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images with b values ranging from 0 to 2,200 sec/mm2. Improvements in spatial resolution allowed better visualization of large white matter tracts and their relation to adjacent anatomic structures. Excellent contrast and anatomic detail were revealed for most structures in the brain when a sufficient number of acquisitions were collected.
