Zusammenfassung
Purpose: Increasing interest in microbleeds had led to numerous studies addressing the prevalence and clinical relevance of these lesions. However, the detection of microbleeds differs between studies, due to differences in image protocols and field strengths. A technique for accurate detection of microbleeds is needed. The purpose of our study was to assess the detection of cerebral microbleeds with dual echo T2*-weighted imaging at 7.0 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Materials and Methods: Ten participants (8 men, 2 women, mean age 54 years) with vascular disease or vascular risk factors were included.…
