Clinical application of MRI SPACE technique in brachial plexus imaging

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of MRI SPACE technology in the brachial plexus imaging.Methods SPACE and T2WI along with Fat sat were performed using a 1.5 T siemens Area D13 MR imager in 30 patients.All raw data were handled by syngoNUAARIS-4 software.Results The brachial plexus was displayed clearly without directional influence in all cases.Conclusion A better quality three-dimensional imaging of the brachial plexus can be obtained by MRI SPACE technology,which may provide an effective,simple and convenient method for studying the diseases related to the brachial plexus.
