Abstract:
MR imaging may help detect the bone marrow edema, which is seen as increased signal intensity with poorly defined margins on STIR images. Unfortunately, STIR sequence is not available in our Magnetom 1.0 Tesla menu. Based on old IR sequence in this MR unit, we have tried to make a new STIR sequence. This sequence is proved on image quality in bone contusion and early inflammation diagnosis.
