Recognition of Brain Metastases Using Gadolinium-Enhanced SWI MRI: Proof-of-Concept Study

Background and purpose: SWI MRI, a T2*-dominant MRI sequence with T1 shine-through effect, uses intrinsic structural susceptibility to create enhancement among brain structures. We evaluated whether gadolinium-enhanced SWI (SWI-Gd) improves brain metastasis detection in combination with other MRI se...
