- Brief Summary
Healthy adult volunteer studies were performed with written informed consent, for tuning up image acquisition parameters of newly-developed sequences before clinical usage. We tried synthesized diffusion and brachial plexus imaging. Images obtained with synthetic DWI was equivalent to direct imaging. For brachial plexus images, cube-black blood was superior to other imaging techniques for depicting neural fibers.
