SUMMARY:
Imaging can help to diagnose CNS vasculitis. Yet so far, no imaging studies of CNS vasculitis at 7T are available. We share our experience of vessel wall imaging (VWI) at 7T in patients with suspected vasculitis. All included patients (n=45) underwent a clinically approved 7T MRI comprising high-resolution arterial TOF angiography as well as high-resolution VWI with T1 sampling perfection with application-optimized contrast using different flip angle evolution (SPACE) and T1 SE acquired…
