Can FLAIR hyperintense vessel (FHV) signs be influenced by varying MR parameters and flow velocities?
Flow velocities, FA of refocusing pulse, TE, and PROPELLER technique significantly affected the degree of FHVs. Optimized MR parameters should be used consistently in future studies, which may provide more reliable results.
In summary, our findings indicate that estrogen deficiency leads to further mandibular bone loss in CKD mice.
