[Present status and developmental trends in NMR tomography of the CNS].
The image quality of MR tomography, which is of particular value in diagnosis, is due to the possibility offered by MR of presenting a maximum of intrinsic biological information via suitable configuration of equipment and adjustment of parameters. Contrast resolution and spatial resolution are closely linked in this presentation. In the near future we may expect to be able to quantify the MR parameters rho, T1 and T2. Unconventional and newly developed impulse sequences will reduce the time required for an examination, which is at present still rather high at more than an hour. Hence, standardisation of data acquisition will be developed further, together with subsequent weighting of the MR parameters specifically according to findings. This will be achieved via computer-assisted evaluation and assessment.
