T2viktad
T2viktad is the term used in Swedish radiology to describe T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences. It refers to a class of MRI contrast mechanisms in which differences in T2 relaxation times across tissues are emphasized, making fluids and edema appear bright while many other tissues are relatively darker.
Principles and appearance. In a T2-weighted sequence, the imaging parameters are chosen to maximize T2 contrast,
Clinical uses. T2viktad imaging is widely used for examining the brain, spine, joints, and various organs. It
Variants and related sequences. Common variants include turbo or fast spin-echo T2 sequences, which shorten acquisition
Limitations. T2 weighting can have lower spatial resolution and is more susceptible to motion, with fat signals
