We performed high-resolution DIR-BBI of the cervical arteries at 3T in 19 subjects with cervical dissection. It offered excellent visualization of both the lumen and arterial wall, allowing detection of the primary and secondary features of dissection. We suggest that this is a highly useful technique for diagnosis of cervical dissection, either routinely or in equivocal cases of suspected dissection. It also offers further insight into the pathogenesis of this disorder.
我们在 19 例颈动脉夹层患者中在 3T 上进行了高分辨率 DIR-BBI 检查。它提供了管腔和动脉壁的极好可视化,允许检测夹层的主要和次要特征。我们建议,这是一种非常有用的技术,可用于诊断颈动脉夹层,无论是常规检查还是疑似夹层的可疑情况下。它还进一步深入了解了这种疾病的发病机制。
