Susceptibility artifact query |
As an MRI 'newbie' would someone be willing to help me with a question on magnetic susceptibility. If you have two metal implants of the same external geometrical form but one of these is hollow, would you you get the same size artifact? I'm basically wondering whether a metallic implant has a finite sphere of influence or whether it is compounded by the volume of material. Much appreciated, Jon

Experiences with Artroscan C |
I know this is a really old question but I'm answering so that maybe others might learn.
The scanner you refer to is actually the E Scan (or possibly the E Scan XQ or the E Scan Opera) by Esaote.
You are correct, the flex coil for hips does not give good coverage or good signal. Most of our E Scan customers never use the coil.
A larger problem for hip studies is that the opening in the magnet and the FOV of the magnet severely limits the ability to scan patients of average and larger than average size.
the same can be said of doing shoulder exams on this scanner, in general the images are not met with happiness by the radiologists.

Faster pulse sequences |
Hi,
I have been learning about faster MRI sequences and have two questions
1) With "Fast (Turbo) gradient echo", in which we apply a spoiler gradient, do we not eventually end up with no longitudinal magnetization because TR is always shorter than T1? Hence shouldn't we eventually get no signal at all?
2) in SSFP (Steady-state free precession) we can apply an RF pulse of 90 degrees (in which T1>>T2) to get heart-blood contrast. How is this any different to a standard spin-echo sequence in terms of timing?
Thank you

Vibrant Sound Bridge and MRI |
Hello everyone,
I have a Vibrant Soundbridge implanted on both sides of my skull, which contain a magnet. I use them due to severe hearing impairment.
Now the question is, I was told that MRI was prohibited for patients with a Vibrant Soundbridge.
Could anyone suggest an alternative to this problem please? Is there another equipment allowing me to have the conclusions normally obtained from MRI? My problem is an accident to my spinal cord, which requires further investigation using an MRI.
I would appreciate any help!
Thanks a lot
