新的磁共振技术改善了大脑成像,改变了一项研究对半数以上的癫痫患者的治疗方式。 New MRI technique improves brain imaging, altering treatment for over half of epilepsy patients in a study.

剑桥大学的科学家开发了一种新的磁共振技术,使用强大的7T扫描仪和8台发射机来识别抗药性癫痫患者的脑损伤。 Scientists at the University of Cambridge have developed a new MRI technique using powerful 7T scanners with eight transmitters to identify brain lesions in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. 这一突破导致对研究中31名患者中一半以上患者的治疗发生了变化,包括使手术成为某些患者可行的选择。 This breakthrough led to changes in treatment for over half of the 31 patients in the study, including making surgery a viable option for some. 这个叫做“平行传输”的新方法提供比常规扫描仪更清晰的图像, 有可能改善癫痫患者的治疗结果。 The new method, called "parallel transmit," provides clearer images than conventional scanners, potentially improving outcomes for epilepsy patients.
