FLAIR2 post-processing: improving MS lesion detection in standard MS imaging protocols

Technical improvements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquisition, such as higher field strength and optimized sequences, lead to better multiple sclerosis (MS) lesion detection and characterization. Multiplication of 3D-FLAIR with 3D-T2 sequences (FLAIR2) results in isovoxel images with increased contrast-to-noise ratio, increased white-gray-matter contrast, and improved MS lesion visualization without increasing MRI acquisition time. The...
