Iron and Non-Iron-Related Characteristics of Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica Lesions at 7T MR

Jeffrey Ross Brain, Editor's Choices

Editor’s Choice Twenty-one patients with MS and 21 patients with neuromyelitis optica underwent 7T high-resolution 2D-gradient-echo-T2* and 3D-susceptibility-weighted imaging. An in-house-developed algorithm was used to reconstruct quantitative susceptibility mapping from SWI. Of the patients with MS, 19 (90.5%) demonstrated at

Lateral Asymmetry and Spatial Difference of Iron Deposition in the Substantia Nigra of Patients with Parkinson Disease Measured with Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping

Jeffrey Ross Brain, Editor's Choices

Editor’s Choice The authors evaluated 24 patients with Parkinson disease and 24 age- and sex-matched healthy controls who underwent 3T MR imaging with a 3D multiecho gradient-echo sequence. On reconstructed quantitative susceptibility maps they measured the susceptibility values in the
