Improved MR venography: use of fast short inversion time inversion- recovery technique in evaluation of venous angiomas

AM Saks, FC Paterson, AT Irvine, BA Ayers and KG Burnand
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Unit, St Thomas Hospital, United Medical Dental Schools, London, England.

Eleven patients (five female and six male, aged 6-67 years) with venous angiomas underwent axial and coronal T1-weighted and fast short inversion time inversion-recovery (STIR) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to assess the full extent of the malformations. Images were assessed subjectively by the authors in a nonblinded study. In all patients, fast STIR images depicted more anatomic detail than did T1- weighted images and depicted venous angiomas more clearly than did contrast material-enhanced CT scans but did not help discrimination of arteries and veins.
