Early 500 cases that underwent MRI examination at Division of diagnostic radiology between April 1980 and June 1981 are reviewed to investigate its clinical application. Anatomical details of brain stem & posterior fossa lesion & pelvic lesion, and pathophysiological changes associated with multiple sclerosis, brain edema & disc degeneration are better assessed.
Future MRI application using surface coil, contrast agent Gd-DTPA & ECG-gated cardiac study are commented.
