Balanced Steady-State Free Precession Techniques Improve Detection of Residual Germ Cell Tumor for Treatment Planning [PEDIATRICS]
CONCLUSIONS:
The balanced steady-state free precession sequence improves detection of residual chemotherapy-reduced intracranial germ cell tumors and increases diagnostic confidence of the neuroradiologist. The balanced steady-state free precession sequence may be an important adjunct to the standard MR imaging protocol for radiation planning.
