loss of streamline flow Explanation: ...Los tiempos de relajación T1 de la sangre aumentan al subir la potencia del campo magnético, con esta potencia de campo, incluso, los hematíes empacados tienen un T1 más largo que la sustancia blanca, lo que produce un aspecto hipointenso… (En RM, el tiempo de relajación longitudinal se llama T1 y depende de la relación entre el protón y el medio que lo rodea -existen medios de distinta estructura molecular, viscosidad, etc.- El tiempo de relajación transversa se llama T2 y depende de la relación entre el protón y los protones vecinos.) Angioresonancia: (Tiempo de vuelo, inyección de contraste y contraste de fase). En un estudio de resonancia magnética convencional, la sangre NO da señal, a esto se le llama vacío de flujo… MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY (MRA) MRA images optimally display areas of constant flow velocity, but there are many situations where the flow within a voxel has non-uniform speed or direction. The diagram opposite illustrates the streamlines of flow in the normal carotid bifurcation showing regions of reversed and crossed flow. In a diseased vessel these patterns are even more complex. Similar loss of streamline flow occurs at all vessel junctions and stenoses, and in regions of mural thrombosis. It results in a loss of signal, due to the loss of phase coherence between spins in the voxel. This effect must be considered when interpreting images or selecting technique. This signal loss, usually only noticeable distal to a stenosis, used to be an obvious characteristic of MRA images. It is now minimized by using small voxels and the shortest possible TE. Signal loss from disorganized flow is most noticeable in TOF imaging but also affects the PCA images... Best link for this case: http://www.users.on.net/~vision/papers/basicMRA/MRA_Intro.ht...

loss of fluid signal Explanation: http://www.rard.org.ar/numeros/2007_2/14vacio_flujo.pdf El “signo del vacío de flujo” del LCR consiste en la pérdida de señal, o hipointensidad, de las imágenes potenciadas en T2 que se produce en la porción posterior del tercer ventrículo de pacientes con hidrocefalia normotensiva. Estas pérdidas de señal son más evidentes en la proximidad al acueducto de Silvio ya que la velocidad del LCR durante la sístole y diástole pulsátil aumenta al reducirse la sección transversal del conducto (2,3). La extensión de la pérdida de señal desde el acueducto, tanto en sentido craneal hacia el tercer ventrículo como caudal hacia el cuarto, es proporcional a la velocidad del LCR en el plano de la adquisición. Su extensión representa, pues, una medida indirecta de la magnitud de la velocidad (Fig. 1).
