MRI - SCAPULA w/DEEP RESOLVE

Today I want to show you this easy setup of coils for #scapula imaging. With this setup along with #Deep_Resolve you’re able to scan faster and at the same time having tack sharp images within minutes.
Remember to check out and support my PATREON here: / bacmri
Thanks for watching, following and support.

Philips, body coil, semi lateral decubitus with pillow on the opposite side of the shoulder.

I think I generally use the large flex, or ultra flex depending on what scanner I’m on. It’s a bit tricky to manage the cables, but the coverage and signal is pretty solid. I wouldn’t have thought to use the shoulder coil with the spine coil, mostly because using the shoulder coil base raises the chest a bit off the table and further from the spine coil

[@Nguyen_MRI]

True. Also had this in mind until I tried it. So I was surprised. Just want to share ☺️

Dear Sir, thank you for your amazing channel, I would really appreciate if you can make a video explaining how to optimize brain MRA and MRV , thanks for your efforts

[@Bushra-jz1bb]

hii can you please explain how to take a good scapula localizer for proper planning.

[@tajbarkumar7978]

incredible videos ..thankx sir

@bac nguyen - I need this done but some imaging places say they can't do a scapular mri. What do I ask for or need to know to find the right imaging center for a scapular MRI? Thanks.

[@Nguyen_MRI]

hi, this really depends on where you are located. most places do mri scapular. here in norway, we discuss our issue with our doctor, and then he/she send us to the right place for imaging. but widely i know this is done differently from patient - referring doctor - to imaging.

Thank you Pro

[@jenniferandrade8020]

Does a scapular mri catch the shoulder as well?

[@Nguyen_MRI]

Yes. But remember a dedicated shoulder use different angulations.

First off I want to thank you for the lecture during this years MAGNETOMforum. Great lecture. I have an off-topic questions regarding DWI resolve of the brain. We have a Siemens Sola XA 30. According to literature(phantom studies) you affect the ADC-values by having sub 8000ms TR without using a diffusion prep pulse(similar to driven equilibrium in TSE), but if you utilise a diffusion prep pulse, you can use a considerable lower TR without affecting the ADC-values. Our sequences utilises a TR of approximately 9000ms, but if I load a DWI sequence from Siemens it has TR of 3000 which suggest to me that Siemens utilises a diffusion prep pulse. Do you know if Siemens applies a diffusion prep pulse to it's DWI sequnces and if its possible for the operator to select the use of it or not ? reference: Effect of imaging parameters on the accuracy of apparent diffusion coefficient and optimization strategies

[@Nguyen_MRI]

Thanks for reaching out. I’m not sure if siemens have pre pulses on dwi. I Will take a further check on this one.

Hello dear nice to show this one but you have shown only images in fact nice images but didn’t show position to reach up to this level signal if you don’t mind can you explain that one too

[@Nguyen_MRI]

Thank you. If showing every details it would be too long video and take off too much of my time. I shared here possibilities.

[@ghadykassab8434]

Hello, 1 month ago I felt that my trapezius muscle tore off the bone. I would like to know if this scapula MRI shows the trapezius muscle tear or not since I did a thoracic spine MRI but nothing was shown.

[@Nguyen_MRI]

Thoracic spine i don't think will show your problem unfortunately. You need a decicated exam for that muscle. With other sequences / protocol compared to a routinely thoracic spine.

[@ghadykassab8434]

@@Nguyen_MRI Ah okay I got your point, but how will I know which grade is the tear since it's 100% a tear.

[@Nguyen_MRI]

@@ghadykassab8434 a radiologist would be able to tell you this. I'm not a doctor. I'm the one who just acquire these images.

[@ghadykassab8434]

@@Nguyen_MRI Ah okay okay deal, thank you for your help.

[@ghadykassab8434]

@@Nguyen_MRI Hello Sir, today I did a thoracic MRI just as my doctor prescribed but the report of the MRI will take till next Wednesday. Kindly Can you tell me please what you see in the imaging if I send you the scan?

[@eduards2581]

Is it possible to see muscle or ligament strain/injury of the down bottom edge side of scapula in mri?

[@Nguyen_MRI]

Yes i guess so.

[@eduards2581]

​@@Nguyen_MRIcan it be done with 1,5 tesla machines or only 3tesla? Any difference?

[@Nguyen_MRI]

@@eduards2581 both guarantee if setting the protocols up correctly.
