Quantitative T2 Changes and Susceptibility-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Murine Pregnancy
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate gestational age-dependent changes in the T2 relaxation time in normal murine placentas in vivo. The role of susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) in visualization of the murine fetal anatomy was also elucidated.
METHODS: Timed-pregnant CD-1 mice at gestational day (GD) 12 and GD17 underwent magnetic resonance imaging. Multi-echo spin echo and SWI data were acquired. The placental T2 values on GD12 and GD17 were …
