Comparative Study between 3D Balanced Fast Field Echo Sequence and 3D Driven Equilibrium Sequence in the Assessment of the Inner Ear Structure and Internal Auditory Canal Nerves
Abstract:Background: MR cisternography using three dimensional (3D) heavily T2-weighted imaging techniques is considered the main imaging modality for identification and assessment of inner ear structures anatomy and pathology as well as for identification of the posterior fossa cranial nerves, and there are two techniques that are usually used which are fast spinecho including Driven equilibrium (DRIVE) and fast gradientecho techniques including Balanced fast field echo (bFFE).
Aim of Study:To compare the image qualit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
