GE MR Neurography of the Brachial Plexus - Techniques and Clinical Applications

Explore MR Neurography of the Brachial Plexus in this expert presentation by MSK Radiologist Dr. Darryl Sneag. Delve into the indications for MR Neurography (MRN) in brachial plexus imaging, learn about optimal MRI protocols, hardware, and coils for high-quality neurography, and understand the impact of AIR Recon DL 2D & 3D in achieving high-resolution images. Gain insights into precise pathology localization, anatomical considerations, and technical aspects of MR Neurography. Discover coil setups for unilateral and bilateral brachial plexus imaging, explore fat suppression options, and understand the use of IV Gadolinium for vascular suppression. Review clinical cases and examine conditions such as Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and Parsonage-Turner Syndrome. Enhance your knowledge of brachial plexus MR Neurography techniques and applications in this comprehensive 44-minute video presentation.
