Susceptibility weighted imaging: current clinical applications and development prospects / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

As a routine scanning method of magnetic resonance imaging nowadays , susceptibility weighted imaging provides very important diagnostic information for daily medical treatment in clinical departments such as neurology , neurosurgery, and emergency departments.With the continuous improvement and upgrading , the scope of its clinical application has been further expanded , such as analysis of quantitative susceptibility mapping , perinatal fetal monitoring and neonatal disease diagnosis , guiding clinical therapy strategies and so on.Owing to the great potential and scientific value of this technology , its future development prospects will be new sequence improvement , multiple body parts'application, functional image research, etc.
