Image: Vestibular disturbances correlate with decreased FA in cerebellar regions responsible for sensorimotor processing and central and/or axial balance as well as fusiform gyrus, which is responsible for visually guided locomotion and stereoscopic vision. Images derived from TBSS results and rendered on T1- weighted images from Montreal Neurologic Institute atlas indicate that significant white matter differences in patients with mild TBI and vestibular symptoms involve (a–c) lobule VI and vermian lobules VIIIa, VIIIb, and IX, as shown in axial (a), coronal (b), and sagittal (c) planes, and (d–f) fusiform gyri bilaterally, as shown in axial (d), coronal (e), and sagittal (f) planes. Significant voxels (p < .005, corrected for multiple comparisons) were thickened by using TBSS fill function into local tracts (red) and overlaid on white matter skeleton (blue) (Photo courtesy of Radiology).

DTI-MRI Targets Brain Injury Region in Some Concussion Patients

Image: The quantitative character of the novel 3D technique on MR scans from a patient with primary liver cancer is demonstrated. Images A and B show the scan of the patient before being treated with chemoembolization. The new 3D technique helped quantify the volume and distribution of viable tumor tissue (shown in red and yellow colors). Images C and D demonstrate MR scans acquired after the treatment. The new 3D method helped the radiologists to quantify the vast central destruction of the tumor after the treatment (the dead tumor is represented by the blue color) (Photo courtesy of Johns Hopkins Medicine).

3D MRI Offers Improved Prediction of Survival After Chemotherapy for Liver Tumors

Researchers are using specialized 3D MRI scanning technology to accurately measure living and dying liver tumor tissue in order to quickly show whether very toxic chemotherapy, delivered right through a tumor’s blood supply, is working.   More...

MRI’s Magnetic Fields Used to Treat Balance Problems

Investigators, expanding on earlier studies, reported that individuals with balance disorders or dizziness traceable to an inner-ear disturbance show distinctive abnormal eye movements when the affected ear is exposed to the strong pull of a magnetic resonance imaging scanner’s  magnetic field.   More...
