Techniques for diffusion-weighted imaging of bone marrow
چکیده انگلیسی
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) is an imaging technique which is sensitive to random water movements in spatial scales far below those typically accessible by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This property makes DWI a powerful tool for diagnosis of diseases which involve alterations in water mobility, such as acute stroke. In bone marrow, DWI has been proven to be a highly useful method for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant compression fractures. Unfortunately, the application of DWI sequences to the bone marrow frequently suffers from artifacts, which in some cases seriously restrict the diagnostic utility of the image. This requires the introduction of additional correction techniques, or even the development of new sequences. Thus, the selection of an adequate imaging technique for DWI of the bone marrow is a very important issue. In this article the most important sequences for DWI of the bone marrow are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the problems associated with these sequences, as well as their possible solutions.
