[Abstract] Objective: We compared the display capability of 3D-SPACE, 3D-CISS, 3D-VIBE and 3D-TOF sequence on nerve, vessels and their spatial relationship, and choose optimal sequences to show the relationship between vessels and nerves.Materials and Methods: 3D-SPACE, 3D-CISS, 3D-VIBE , 3D-TOF sequence and conventional MR were used for the MR scan. The MR scan was performed in patients with trigeminal neuralgia, mimetic convulsion or glossopharyngsal neuralgia. 3D MRP and MIP views were reconstructed to show the relationship between nerves and surrounding vessels.Results: Compared with 3D-CISS sequence, 3D-SPACE sequence shows a higher sensitivity in the detection of responsibility blood vessels and the relationship between nerves and blood vessels;Compared with 3D-VIBE sequence, 3D-TOF sequence shows a higher visualization in whole vessels shape.Conclusions: 3D-SPACE sequence can show the relationship between nerve and blood vessels, 3D-TOF sequence can display the whole vessel shape and judge the source of blood vessel in MIP reconstruction. The combination of the two sequences can Visually show the advantage of MR in neurovascular imaging.
