Metalic particles into the cornea
For my personal opinion, it is not to expect that these microscopic steel particles are a contraindication for an MRI of the head. An injury of the patient by dislocation or
torque presents not a real risk because of the small size.
The possibility of heating is minimal and can be additional lowered by reducing the SAR. Artifacts may reduce the image quality a little, but diagnostic brain imaging is certainly possible. The use of a mid or low field MRI machine will also reduce any risks.
Hope this will help.

Metalic particles into the cornea
Dear Friends:

We are working in a Ophthalmology Department at Institut Universitari Dexeus-USP in Barcelona.

We received a patient who was treated for myopia some time ago using a LASIK technique ( Laser In situ Keratomileusis) as you probably know, cornea was sliced and lasered using a microkeratome however blade oscilation in the past eventually spread into the interface particles comming from steel inox blade´s.

Could this affect an MRI of Head, is this a contraindications, ( particles are microscopic/multiple and are interlamellar into cornea )

Thank you for your input

Kind Regards

Brain Protocol
Hi Oscar,
depending of the indication (tumor, stroke, haemorrhage, epilepsy, inflammation, malformation....) different sequences are useful for brain MRI.
A protocol for a wide range of indications: sagittal T2, coronal Flair, transversal DWI and transversal T1 without and with contrast medium. In case of a result a second plane of a T1 sequence after contrast e.g. coronal is recommended.

Nerve stimulator / neurostimulator
Hi all,
any experience with a nerve stimulator? I read here that it is not an absolute contraindication, but what I have to pay attention to?

Black Blood MRA
I have questions about black blood MRA sequences. Which range of application does this technique have? I have heard also cine black blood imaging is possible.
What is the advantage of black blood cine over standard bright blood cine?
