Abstract

The evaluation of the brain with magnetic resonance imaging can be divided essentially into two parts, morphological and functional study. Standard morphological study provides information about the anatomy of the brain tissue, the cerebrospinal fluid spaces, the skull, the arterial and venous blood vessels; it can also be completed with acquisitions after administration of contrast agent. Functional studies include diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), perfusion weighted imaging (PWI), spectroscpy. Parallel imagin is a new technique wich ensure faster acquisition.
