title: Principal advantages of CNS diagnostics by magnetic resonance imaging.
abstract: In this paper the authors present the principal advantages and values of CNS diagnostics by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), on the basis of the data from the available literature as well as on the 3-year experience of the MRI Institute in Innsbruck. Also, qualitative advantages of MR 1.5 T over other, less powerful machines, have been emphasized. So far, the experience has proved that, for the moment, the 1.5 MR machine offers optimal characteristics for the diagnostics of the CNS diseases.
