Pelizaeus-Merzbacher's disease is a progressive encephalopathy with demyelination of the cerebral white matter. The diagnosis can not be made on clinical or biological grounds: pathological investigation is necessary to confirm tigroid demyelination. CT scanning failed to visualize this type of anom
## Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is the current βgold standardβ for assessment of lung morphology and is so far the most reliable imaging modality for monitoring cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. CT has a much higher radiation exposure than chest xβray. The cumulative radiation dose for lifeβl
## Abstract ## Purpose To provide a rapid sequence for volumetric imaging of large fields of view. ## Materials and Methods The volumetric imaging principles of xβray helical computed tomograpy (CT) were implemented here on an MRI scanner. However, using the advantages offered by MRI, spiral tra
