The Hippocampus
Description
The twin structure of the hippocampus is a vital importance for memory and ''human being'', it is in vivo examined by anatomically oriented, high-resolution MRI. Important MR sequences are coronal, 2 or 3 mm thick, T2-weighted or Flair fast spin echo sequences which are set at an angle perpendicular to the length axis of the hippocampus. This review article focuses on diagnostic pitfalls and illustrates MR imaging findings of the most common diseases. (orig.)
