Magnetic resonance neurography of the brachial plexus using 3D SHINKEI: Comparative evaluation with conventional magnetic resonance sequences for the visualization of anatomy and detection of nerve injury at 1.5t

Background and Purpose: This work aims at optimizing and studying the feasibility of imaging the brachial plexus at 1.5T using 3D nerve-SHeath signal increased with INKed rest-tissue RARE imaging (3D SHINKEI) neurography sequence by comparing with routine sequences. Materials and Methods: The study...
