The ultrasound fusion imaging (UFI) system is a new promising imaging modality that combines live ultrasound investigations with preregistered CT, MRI, or PET images. In this study, we want to present our initial experience with the new method that combines the transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS) in different insonation planes and the 3T-weighted MRI cerebral images. The study validates the diagnostic capabilities of the system to detect different normal cerebral structures in healthy volunteers. In the present paper, we also discuss the advantages of US fusion imaging technology and its clinical applications in Neurology.
超声融合成像(UFI)系统是一种新的有前途的成像方式,它将实时超声检查与预先注册的 CT、MRI 或 PET 图像相结合。在这项研究中,我们希望展示我们使用新方法的初步经验,该方法结合了不同扫描平面的经颅彩色编码超声(TCCS)和 3T 磁共振成像(MRI)脑图像。该研究验证了该系统检测健康志愿者不同正常脑结构的诊断能力。在本文中,我们还讨论了 US 融合成像技术的优势及其在神经病学中的临床应用。
