FLAIR Technique to Use for Diagnosis Brain Bloodless Diseases

Mri First

Abstract

Purpose: To study the value of FLAIR in cerebral diseases.Materials and Methods: 54 patients of cerebral diseases were ferfonned FLAIR and T_2-weighted fast spinecho sequence prospectively and a comparative study of T_2-weighted and FLAIR imaging was made.Results: FLAIR sequence demonstrated 213 foci of lesions,whereas T_2-weighted showed 162 foci of lesions.The former was more sen- sitive than the later.Conclusion: FLAIR sequence is superior to T_2-weighted in the detection of cerebral lesions.FLAIR has been suggested to be a routine imaging sequence of choice in the brain an important value in diagnosing brain disease.
