In this video, we detail the DWI MRI scan sequence, diffusion weighted imaging. This short-shot Echo Planar Imaging scan technique gives radiologists the ability to provide a fast diagnosis with improved image clarity. The DWI MRI scan sequence improves delineation when imaging anatomical microstructures and is a powerful diagnostic imaging technique that has specialized applications in diagnosing multiple sclerosis (MS MRI), evaluating cancerous growth and assessing cerebrovascular accidents (Stroke MRI). Join us as we explore the DWI MRI scan sequence.
