Abstract
MRI in neuroradiology has evolved in the last 30 years, becoming faster, more precise, and more specific. The latest additions, including magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), diffusion imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, functional MRI, and dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion imaging, have expanded the applications for MR imaging. Currently, fluid attenuation inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging, thin-section 3D volumetric imaging with spoiled gradient techniques, and the others mentioned above permit not only the precise localization of brain lesions, but also the evaluation of their metabolic profile, their location relative to eloquent regions of the cortex and subcortical white matter, and the relative blood volume and permeability of the vasculature that supplies the lesion. Thus, cellular, vascular, functional and anatomic information are obtained in one examination session and are available to treating physicians in their office, operating room, or radiation therapy suite.
