Normal Myelination of the Pediatric Brain Imaged with Fluid-Attenuated Inversion-Recovery (FLAIR)MR Imaging

摘要

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: As in adult imaging, FLAIR can be applied to pediatric brain imaging, and this requires an appreciation of the normal pediatric brain appearance by FLAIR imaging. The purpose of this study was to describe the MR appearance of the brain in normal infants and young children as demonstrated by fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) MR imaging.
