Two-Dimensional Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging (2D-SWI) of the Abdomen at 3T

摘要：

Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging (SWI) is a powerful technique to produce an image with a strong contrast of magnetic susceptibility in a high field. The technique is particularly useful in emphasizing blood vessels, for example, the vein and iron accumulated lesions in the brain 1-3. What can be found by applying the technique to the abdomen instead of the brain? We carried out a newly developed 2D breath-held SWI of the abdomen in the field of 1.5T and 3T and compared the results.
