All patients with PD and normal controls were scanned with a 1.5 tesla MRI (Gyroscan ACS-NT; Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands). To maintain consistent positioning of individuals' heads, the pilot images of coronal, sagittal, and axial T1 MR images with fast-field echo sequence were acquired using the following MRI scanning variables: slice thickness = 10 mm with a gap of 10 mm, repetition time (TR/echo time (TE)) = 15/5.2 msec, in-plane matrix = 256 × 256, field of view (FOV) = 25 × 25 cm, 4 slices in each orientation, and flip angle = 20°.
Coronal 3D T1-weighted turbo field echo MRI data were acquired with the following protocols: slice thickness = 1.3 mm without gap, number of slices = 160, scan time = 10 min 13 sec, TR/TE = 10/4.3 msec, number of excitations = 1, image matrix = 256 × 256, FOV = 22 × 22 cm2, and flip angle = 8°. To correct the head tilts in the MRI bore, coronal 3D T1 MRI was performed perpendicular to the long axis from the anterior commissure to the posterior commissure in the midsagittal plane of the interhemispheric commissure before MRI scans. The voxel size of the 3D MRI was 0.86 × 0.86 × 1.30 mm3 (x × y × z, respectively).

US was performed using a Philips iU22 scanner (Philips Medical Solutions, Bothell, WA) with a high-resolution (5–12 MHz) real-time scanner. Color Doppler was also performed to assess the vascularity. Longitudinal and transverse images were taken from the clavicles to the mandible, with the patient's neck extended and their shoulders lowered. CT was performed using a Lightspeed 16 (GE Healthcare, Tokyo, Japan) and a dual-source CT scanner (Definite Flash; Siemens Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany). Craniocaudal coverage extended from the skull to the mediastinum, and the images were reconstructed using a 5-mm slice thickness. Helical scans were carried out 60 s after intravenous injection of a contrast medium (ioversol; 80–90 mL; 320 mgI/mL; Tyco, Canada). MRI was performed using a 3-T scanner (Gyroscan ACS-NT; Phillips, Best, the Netherlands) and involved transverse, coronal, and sagittal coverage from the skull to the mediastinum. The scans used a 5-mm slice thickness and included T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and short-tau inversion recovery sequences.

A 1.5 T whole-body system (Gyroscan ACS-NT, Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands) was used performing a standard protocol: a T1-weighted sequence (3 D acquisition; repetition time (TR)/echo time (TE): 7.0/3.2 ms; voxel size = 0.94 × 0.94 ×1.0 mm3 isotropic), a T1-weighted inversion recovery sequence (2 D acquisition; TR/TE: 2900/22 ms; TI = 410 ms), a T2-weighted sequence (2 D acquisition; TR/TE: 2200/10.5 ms), and a fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence (2 D acquisition; TI/TR/TE: 2000/6000/100 ms). All two-dimensional sequences were acquired with a voxel size of 1.0 × 1.0 × 4.0 mm3 and contiguous slices. A phase-contrast MR angiography sequence (2 D slice acquisition; TR/TE: 16/9 ms; voxel size =0.98 × 0.98 × 5.00 mm3; velocity sensitivity 100 cm/s; acquisition at the level of the proximal cavernous segment of the ICA and prepontine basilar artery) was also performed.

Twenty-three patients (including 16 patients with CRT), were examined using a 1.5-T MRI scanner (Gyroscan ACS-NT, Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands) between January 2010 and March 2014, and 12 patients (including 9 patients with CRT) using a 3.0-T MRI scanner (Ingenia, Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands) between April 2014 and December 2016 with a 4-element phased-array coil in the supine position with breath-holds during expiration and ECG gating.
Cine images were acquired using cine-balanced turbo field-echo sequences (repetition time, 2.8 ms; echo time, 1.4 ms; flip angle, 45°; slice thickness, 8 mm; field of view, 380 mm; matrix size, 176×193; SENSE factor 2). There were 20 phases per cardiac cycle, resulting in a mean temporal resolution of 45 ms. LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and LVESV were analyzed semi-automatically at the basal to apical levels using LV short-axis (SA) cine images, followed by manual correction with available software (Ziostation 2; Ziosoft, Tokyo, Japan). End-diastolic and end-systolic phases were identified visually on those images with the largest and smallest LV cavity areas, respectively.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MRI of the brain was performed on a 1.5 T whole-body system (Gyroscan ACS-NT, Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands) using a standardized scan protocol consisting of two-dimensional multi-slice sequences. Transversal T1-weighted (gradient-echo; repetition time (TR) = 235 ms; echo time (TE) = 2 ms), T2-weighted (turbo spin-echo; TR = 2200 ms; TE = 11 ms), FLAIR (turbo spin-echo; TR = 6000 m; TE = 100 ms; inversion time (TI) = 2000 ms), and T1-weighted inversion recovery images (turbo spin-echo; TR = 2900 ms; TE = 22 ms; TI = 410 ms) were acquired. All MR sequences had a resolution of 1.0 × 1.0 × 4.0 mm3 and consisted of 38 contiguous slices (field of view 230 mm × 230 mm; matrix size 180 × 256, slice gap 0 mm).
Lacunes were visually rated by a neuroradiologist (TW) blinded to patient characteristics on the T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and FLAIR images. We defined lacunes as focal lesions between 3 to 15 mm according to the STRIVE criteria.5 (link) Brain infarcts were visually rated by a neuroradiologist (TW) blinded to patient characteristics on the T1-weighted, T2-weighted and FLAIR images.

High-Resolution 3D T1-Weighted MRI Acquisition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All participants were scanned with a 1.5-T MRI scanner (Gyroscan ACS-NT; Philips Medical Systems, Best, the Netherlands). A coronal 3D T1-weighted turbo field echo MRI was obtained with the following scanning variables: 1.3 mm thickness; no gap; 160 slices; repetition time/echo time, 10/4.3 msec; number of signal averages, 1; matrix, 256×256 mm; field of view, 22×22 cm; and flip angle, 8°. To improve the signal-tonoise ratio, no sensitivity encoding (SENSE) acceleration factor was applied [36 ] and so, the total scanning time for a T1 MRI was relatively long (10 min 13 sec.). Coronal slices were obtained perpendicular to the long axis of the anterior commissure to the posterior commissure in the midsagittal plane. The final voxel size was 0.86×0.86×1.30 mm (x×y×z).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
