The feasibility of synthetic MRI in breast cancer patients: comparison of T2 relaxation time with multi-echo spin-echo T2 mapping method.

CONCLUSION: T2 relaxation times of breast cancer acquired with synthetic MRI showed positive correlation with those of MESE T2 mapping. Synthetic MRI could be useful for the evaluation of tissue characteristics by simultaneous acquisition of several quantitative physical properties. Advances in knowledge: Synthetic MRI is useful for the evaluation of T2 relaxation times of the breast cancers. PMID: 30215550 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
