PLC Bundles Course Detail:
Diffusion Weighted Imaging
After completing this course you will be able to
- Explain Brownian motion or random movement of water molecules of different tissues
- Describe the subtle movement in the range of micrometers, which is specific for different tissues and their benign or malignant changes.
- DWI is routinely used to detect early ischemic lesions and in oncology, to detect and characterize lesions.
- Explain diffusion weighted imaging use for MR diagnostic examinations, including total body diffusion, diffusion of the spine, breast, prostate, examinations of patient with suspected demyelinating diseases, vertebral fractures, spinal cord lesions, and other conditions.
- summarize the theory of diffusion and identify its implementation on the MR system in scan sequences and parameters.
DTI & Fiber Tracking
After completing this course you will be able to
- Explain biological information of the tissue's microstructure to investigate neuro-oncology, development disorders, and ischemic brain injury. They view and identify changes in the white matter tracts which may be caused by tumors or other anomalies that correlate to cognitive deficits.
Neuro Spectroscopy
After completing this course you will be able to
- Explain the chemical composition and metabolism properties of MR Spectroscopy
- in neuro-oncology, metabolic diseases, abscesses, white matter diseases, epilepsy, and is used in many research studies.
You will learn the theory of MR spectroscopy, how to scan and post process single and multi-voxel spectroscopy, or chemical shift imaging, of the brain and the important considerations related to spectroscopy, like chemical shift, shimming, scan methods, planning of the scan, echo times, and other scan parameters.
Functional MRI
MR Perfusion Imaging
After completing this course you will be able to
- Explain Perfusion weighted imaging parameters and measurement values, such as k-trans, cerebral blood flow, cerebral blood volume
- Describe the Neuro Perfusion T1, T2-star, Permeability, and Arterial spin labelling methods
