Evaluation of meningeal lymphatic vessels with delayed contrast enhanced vessel-wall MRI in cerebral infarction
Delayed meningeal enhancement observed in patients with large cerebral infarctions likely reflects alterations in brain clearance pathways. The absence of such enhancement in MMD supports that these enhancements are not attributable to collateral circulation. Phantom validation confirmed that the imaging parameters used in the DANTE T1-SPACE sequence were sufficient to detect subtle contrast enhancement in the clinically relevant T1 range.
