When using peripheral gating for a CSF Flow study, a good waveform has equally spaced peaks and significant amplitude.

MRI parameters include:

Pair the common indication or pathology with the exam:

____________‐ weighted images are important to determine normal myelination from birth to about 6 months of age.

Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) maps white matter tracts as fractional anisotropy (FA) maps or as tractography images. 

___________ involves the reconstruction of a 2D projection image from 3D volumetric data using a ray-tracing algorithm.

T1 weighted images are the standard to visualize pathology.

Changing parameters to optimize MRI scans is called “hand offs”.
