Post-COntrast 3D SE T1 Versus Coronal SE T1-WI MRI in Detecting Optic Neuritis (COCON) (COCON)

Post-COntrast 3D SE T1 Versus Coronal SE T1-WI MRI in Detecting Optic Neuritis in Patients Presenting With Acute Visual Loss and Otherwise Normal Ophthalmological Examination

3D FLAIR, 3D T1 FAT SAT, coronal T2 and coronal T1 dixon sequences were usually used to assess visual deficits in MRI. Optic nerve examination is preferably performed using a coronal T2 sequence in order to detect a hypersignal suggestive of inflammation whereas brain examination is preferably performed using a 3D T1 sequence to highlight signs of spatial dissemination and lesions suggestive of multiple slerosis (MS). No study has yet investigated the detection capabilities of 3D T1 for the detection of optic nerve inflammation. The objective of this retrospective study was to determine whether a single 3D T1 sequence allows simultaneous exploration of the optic nerve and the brain for the positive diagnosis of optic neuropathy and/or MS.
