Comparative StudyFast spin-echo inversion-recovery imaging versus fast T2-weighted spin-echo imaging in bone marrow abnormalities.
The purpose of this investigation is to compare a fat-suppressed T2-weighted fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence in bone marrow abnormalities with an FSE STIR sequence that recently has become commercially available. ⋯ Fast spin-echo STIR images may be preferable to FSE images with fat suppression due to better image homogeneity and lesion conspicuity.
