Journal ArticleDOI
Dedicated Cone-Beam CT System for Extremity Imaging
John A. Carrino,Abdullah Al Muhit,Wojciech Zbijewski,Gaurav K. Thawait,J. Webster Stayman,Nathan J. Packard,Robert A. Senn,Dong Yang,David H. Foos,John Yorkston,Jeffrey H. Siewerdsen +10 more
TL;DR: A dedicated extremity cone-beam CT scanner capable of imaging upper and lower extremities (including weight-bearing examinations) provides sufficient image quality and favorable dose characteristics to warrant further evaluation for clinical use.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Resolution MR Neurography of Diffuse Peripheral Nerve Lesions
Shrey K. Thawait,Vinay Chaudhry,Gaurav K. Thawait,Kenneth C. Wang,Allan J. Belzberg,John A. Carrino,Avneesh Chhabra +6 more
TL;DR: Using clinical and pathologically proved relevant examples, the MRN appearance of various types of diffuse peripheral nerve lesions, such as traumatic, inflammatory, infectious, hereditary, radiation-induced, neoplastic, and tumor variants are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomic MR Imaging and Functional Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Peripheral Nerve Tumors and Tumorlike Conditions
Avneesh Chhabra,Rashmi S. Thakkar,Gustav Andreisek,Majid Chalian,Allan J. Belzberg,Jaishri O. Blakeley,Ahmet Hoke,Gaurav K. Thawait,John Eng,John A. Carrino +9 more
TL;DR: 3T MR imaging and DTI are valuable methods for anatomic and functional evaluation of peripheral nerve lesions with excellent interobserver reliability, and tractography and low FA provide insight into neural integrity while low diffusivity values indicate malignancy in neural masses.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Resolution 3-T MR Neurography of the Lumbosacral Plexus
Theodoros Soldatos,Gustav Andreisek,Gaurav K. Thawait,Roman Guggenberger,Eric H. Williams,John A. Carrino,Avneesh Chhabra +6 more
TL;DR: The lumbosacral plexus comprises a network of nerves that provide motor and sensory innervation to most structures of the pelvis and lower extremities and is susceptible to various traumatic, inflammatory, metabolic, and neoplastic processes as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-resolution 3T MR neurography of the brachial plexus and its branches, with emphasis on 3D imaging
Avneesh Chhabra,Gaurav K. Thawait,Theodoros Soldatos,Rashmi S. Thakkar,F. Del Grande,Majid Chalian,John A. Carrino +6 more
TL;DR: With advancement in 3D imaging, better fat-suppression techniques, and superior coil designs for MR imaging and the increasing availability and use of 3T magnets, the visualization of the complexity of the brachial plexus has become facile.
