Whole Body MRI at 3T with Quantitative Diffusion Weighted Imaging and Contrast-Enhanced Sequences for the Characterization of Peripheral Lesions in Patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 2 and Schwannomatosis

Figure 2

Whole body STIR images in a patient with NF-2 with large artifacts through the abdomen and pelvis, due to inadequate shimming of the large field of view (in (a)) after changing “stations.” In (b), localized fast shimming methods were applied and the shimming was corrected, producing diagnostic quality images.
