Value of enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery T1-weighted imaging sequences combined with the three-dimensional modulated flip-angle technique in diagnosing brain metastases
The MATRIX CE-T1FLAIR sequence demonstrates superior overall and subgroup detection rates, particularly for small brain metastases (<5 mm) in the superficial areas of the brain's convexity as compared to 3D GRE fsp CE-T1FLAIR and 2D FSE CE-T1FLAIR.
