Due to the effect of the cerebrospinal fluid, the
surrounding fat and the thin structure of the spinal
cord, routine T2w-TSE imaging of the spinal cord is
limited, with a high chance of missed diagnosis or
misdiagnosis. This study compared the imaging of DIR and
T2w in demyelinating disease to find out which one has a
higher diagnostic value. The results demonstrates that
SPACE-DIR has significantly higher CNR and found more
lesion than T2-TSE in detecting lesion in cervical and
thoracic cord for demyelinating disease diagnosis.
