Disorders in DPN Several pieces of evidence suggest that the low-protein endoneurial fluid is what is seen most prominently in T2 neurography images. The endoneurial fluid is a low-protein liquid that lies within the privileged space of the endoneurium and bathes the axons. It has a bulk proximal to distal flow along the nerve that may be disrupted by nerve compression and edema. Although endoneurial fluid is responsible for only a fraction of the imagable protons in a nerve, it is one of the most distinctive types of tissue water in nerve from the point of view of MR imaging.

18 Methodology Patients and controls T2w SPAIR (0.6x0.6x3mm), 3Tesla
4 type II diabetic patients with polyneuropathy (DPN) 2 type II diabetic patients (nDPN) without neuropathy 4 healthy control (HC) subjects. T2w SPAIR (0.6x0.6x3mm), 3Tesla Presence of neuropathy was determined based on the clinical examination Neuropathy impairment score Neuropathy symptom score and nerve conduction studies T2w spectral selection attenuated inversion recovery (SPAIR) images (0.6x0.6x3mm) were acquired to measure the extent of the focal nerve lesions at 3 Tesla. The MR scans consisted of 30 axial slices of the sciatic nerve in mid-thigh level. Two male subjects were scanned including a type 2 diabetic patient with polyneuropathy (DPN) and a type 2 diabetic patient (DM2) without neuropathy. Presence of neuropathy was determined based on clinical examinations; Neuropathy impairment score (NIS) Neuropathy symptom score (NSS) and Nerve conduction velocity tests.

19 MR Neurography T2w MR imaging of the hyperintense low-protein endoneurial fluid Suppression of fat signal around nerves and from within nerves Image resolution < 0.6x0.6mm High quality surface coils Detecting DPN has been performed with the STIR (Short Tau Inversion Recovery) sequence. However, STIR introduces intrinsic limitations such as reduced signal to noise ratio (SNR) and scan time efficiency, additionally STIR may inadvertently suppress tissues of interest that have short longitudinal relaxation times. Alleviating this problem, STIR inversion pulses can be designed to spectrally select only the fat magnetization. However, such modification will inevitably render the technique sensitive to B0 magnetic field inhomogeneity [8]. Altering the spin magnetization modulation of the RF pulses in the STIR sequence into other modalities could make the detection of nerve lesions more specific, of which SPAIR (Spectral Selection Attenuated Inversion Recovery) is a prominent pulse sequence [11]. SPAIR provide a method to increase the flip angle generating more signal and higher SNR in a more homogeneous fat suppression. [1] M. Pham et al. Diabetes Care 2011

22 Konklusion MR-scanning viste en signifikant øgning I volumen af nervus ischiadicus hos patienter med diabetisk nervesygdom MR-scanning af hele nervesystemet er mulig (total nerve lesion load) MR-scanning kan anvendes til dybtliggende nervestrukturer
