1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,250 We visually rated silent cerebral lesion (SCLs) in Osirix DICOM Viewer Lite (Pixmeo SARL, Swiss, https://www.osirix-viewer.com) 2 00:00:10,225 --> 00:00:18,990 First, we import the data, anonymize the subjects' information with a key in the tool bar. 3 00:00:28,250 --> 00:00:32,740 We have pre-removed the subjects' identity information. 4 00:00:32,850 --> 00:00:37,525 Now, we start the evaluation of the silent lacunes (SLs). 5 00:00:42,625 --> 00:00:48,250 This work is mainly done on the T1 horizontal images. 6 00:00:48,250 --> 00:00:56,250 Here's a suggestion, that the evaluators develop their habits of evaluating in a fixed order. 7 00:00:56,250 --> 00:01:14,975 I always evaluate in the order of “the frontal lobe - island lobe - basal ganglion - thalamus - temporal lobe - parietal lobe - occipital lobe - cerebellum - brain stem”. 8 00:01:14,975 --> 00:01:23,050 We evaluate two hemispheres separately. Complete all the evaluation of one side, then the other. 9 00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:28,750 Visually scan each area 2 times. This effectively avoids omissions. 10 00:01:30,950 --> 00:01:36,000 Here's a demonstration. I'll start with the frontal lobe on the right 11 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:41,800 Positioned to the bottom of the frontal lobe and began to glance up 12 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:54,825 layer by layer, up to the top.(speed up) 13 00:01:54,825 --> 00:02:03,720 and then scan the frontal lobe across all the layers once more, from top to bottom. 14 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,470 After complete with the frontal lobe, we go on with the assessment of the island lobe. 15 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:19,075 Again, from bottom to top, and then once more from top to bottom. 16 00:02:19,075 --> 00:02:23,275 Then, evaluates the rest of the right brain. 17 00:02:23,275 --> 00:02:26,420 Then, continue with the left side. 18 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,579 In the course of scanning, if a suspicious lesion is found 19 00:02:30,579 --> 00:02:41,120 Mark it with this dot marking tool.(speed up) 20 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,908 If more than one suspicious lesions are found, make multiple markers. 21 00:02:47,925 --> 00:02:52,580 When all areas have been assessed and lesions have been marked 22 00:02:52,580 --> 00:02:56,804 further explore each suspicious lesion one by one. 23 00:02:57,470 --> 00:03:01,746 Open new sequences with right-click on the left panel. 24 00:03:01,746 --> 00:03:05,246 Choose a windows tiling mode 25 00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:26,670 Replace a repeating T2 window with Flair. 26 00:03:28,725 --> 00:03:32,100 So that I can make a comparison. 27 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:40,925 On Flair and T1, lacunes are hypointense foci of 2-15 mm diameter. 28 00:03:40,925 --> 00:03:43,600 On T2, they are hyperintense.
