Subjects were scanned with a 3.0 T MRI -scanner (Philips Achieva TX; Philips Healthcare, Eindhoven, The Netherlands). Structural three-dimensional T1-weighted MR-images were acquired (TR 8.07 ms, TE 3.7 ms, flip angle 8°, 1 × 1 × 1 mm3 resolution) for TMS navigation. An experienced ...

and were affected in Dolly23. T2* and proton density, fat-saturated MRI images provided the most useful diagnostic information, showing periarticular osteophytosis primarily on the trochlear ridges and caudal tibia. However, the extent of the disease remained mild, and not unexpected in aged sheep...
To assess the quality of MRI data, we have calculated a series of quality metrics (Fig. 1) that have been used in previous imaging literatures for each modality of MRI images. All of these metrics were computed using the Preprocessed Connectomes Project Quality Assessment Protocol (http://...
A potential tool for the study of early stage of IDD is T1ρ MRI. T1ρ relaxation time of human discs has been correlated to proteoglycan content in previous studies. METHODS T1ρ- and T2-weighted images of the lumbar spine were obtaine...
2022, Joint Bone Spine Citation Excerpt : In the most recent description, the concept of REM has been suggested to cover the complete control of inflammation in all aspects of disease manifestations. Among multiple scales, the DAS-28 and DAPSA, frequently used activity scales for PsA, were des...
Both MRI and CT scans are versatile imaging modalities used to assess various spinal conditions. They both provide detailed images of the bones and every other soft tissue in the spine. Today, we’ll take a closer look at these imaging tests and the key differences that can help you choose...

BM samples were from patients who received palliative RT for a secondary malignant neoplasm of bone in the thoracic spine between January 2016 and September 2019. HB samples were from individuals who received curative RT for non-metastatic lung cancer (as their CT images covered the same anatomy)...
