Objectives: You will learn
T1 wtd. image | T2 wtd. image |
|
Fat: |
Bright | Loss of signal on fat suppressed images |
Calcification: |
Low signal | Darker signal |
Cyst/Fluid: |
Low signal like CSF | Bright signal like CSF. Fluid follows the signal intensity of CSF within the ventricle and subarachnoid space. |
CT imaging is more sensitive than MR imaging to detect calcification within the tumor, tumors originating from the skull and acute hemorrhage within the tumor.
