Susceptibility weighted with phase imaging is a useful
technique in definitive characterization of various
stages of blood as well as in calcification in brain;
however it has never been used in the evaluation of
female pelvis. We studied various pelvic lesions on 3
Tesla MRI scanner and quantified the phase value. Due to
the differential para- and di-magnetic nature of
calcification and various stages of hemorrhage
significant quantitative difference in phase values was
seen. With no additional scan time, valuable information
obtained from phase MR imaging can give a definitive
answer for characterization of various pelvic
pathologies in females.
