T1W images show the tumor and a darkening of the tissue around it. This darkening appears to be a region of increased water content. There is also a subtle but evident change in signal representative of edema in the tissue surrounding…
What do we look for? Cerebral Microbleeds, Shearing damage, Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.
STAGE SWI clearly shows findings that conventional T2 and T1 data missed…
STAGE at 3T for a child with Sturge Weber Syndrome. Eliminates need for contrast agent. No CT required for differentiating bleeds from calcifications.
What do we look for? Cerebral Microbleeds, Areas of deoxygenation, APCV.
STAGE enhances detection of microbleeds, which are critical for proper diagnosis and treatment. Oxygen saturation, which can be an indicator of perfusion. Non contrast MRAV…
Parkinson's Disease Detection Use Case What do we look for? Iron in the basal ganglia“Swallow Tail” sign The “swallow tail” or nigrosome 1 (N1) sign in a normal individual seen with STAGE tSWI . Absence of the N1 sign is a potential biomarker for Parkinson’s Disease....
SWIM provides superior lesion contrast, in agreement with MWF.
SWIM provides enhanced resolution in a fraction of the acquisition and processing time.
Differentiating bleeds from calcifications reduces false positives, improves accuracy…
