Background And Purpose
Method
HR-MRI was performed in 21 adult patients with angiographically proven MMD or MMS. A definite diagnosis was based on the HR-MRI findings. The diagnoses made via the 2 different imaging technologies were compared, and significant findings were analyzed.
Conclusion
Differentiating MMD from MMS is difficult in certain situations, and HR-MRI may help provide a more in-depth understanding of MMD and MMS, thereby achieving a more reliable diagnosis.
