ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the specific absorption rate (SAR)in 3.0T MR brain examination.Methods All 280 patients underwent 3 .0 MR brain examination.And the patients were divided into three groups:a group of 0-3 years old without hands intersection, inluding 40 cases through conventional MRI examination,40 cases through MRA,as well as 40 cases through DWI;a group of more than 20 years old without hands intersection,including 40 cases through conventional MRI examination,40 cases through MRA,as well as 40 cases through DWI;a group of more than 20 years old with hands intersection,consisting of 40 cases through MRA.The SAR values of each group were recorded,respectively.And the independent samples t test was used to compare statistical difference of different SAR values between groups.Results Compared the group of 0-3 years old without hands intersection and the group of more than 20 years old without hands intersection,the SAR values of all six sequences in front group were significantly higher than that those in latter one,but not exceed the safety standard of 3 w/kg in the United States FDA.There was no significant statistical differences in the SAR values of two groups which more than 20 years old with hands intersection or not (P>0.05).Conclusion The SAR values of each sequence in the group of 0-3 years old without hands intersection were significantly higher than those in the group of more than 20 years old without hands intersection,but in a safe and reasonable range.The brain scanning with two hands intersect of 20 years old and above,and there was no significant increase on the SAR values in the brain examination of the group of more than 20 years old with hands intersection.So it is of great significance to guide the daily work,settle doubts and improve success rates of the MR examination.
