Mit dem PEDNET-LC Netzwerk soll eine einheitliche, bedarfsgerechte Versorgung aufgebaut werden. Ein interdisziplinärer Verbund aus Medizin, Forschung und Betroffenenorganisationen, darunter der Fatigatio e.V., arbeitet zusammen, um Wissen zu bündeln, Forschung voranzutreiben und Versorgungsstrukturen nachhaltig zu verbessern.

Projektleiterin ist Prof. Uta Behrends vom MRI Chronische Fatigue Centrum für junge Menschen (MCFC).

After 2018, when a doctor suspected I might have MS (he was right), I've been in MRI about 10 times. First it was more often and now it's once a year as a control. I hate it as I'm claustrophobic. Today was MRI again, not fun but I survived 👍🏻

NatureThe application of magnetic susceptibility separation for measuring cerebral oxygenation in preterm neonates - Pediatric ResearchQuantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modality sensitive to deoxyhemoglobin, is a promising method for measuring cerebral oxygenation in human neonates. Paramagnetic sources, like deoxyhemoglobin, however, can be obscured by diamagnetic sources such as water and myelin. This study evaluated whether QSM images, or isolated paramagnetic components, are more accurate for measuring oxygenation of cerebral veins of preterm neonates, and explored oxygenation differences between the major cerebral veins. 19 preterm neonates were scanned on at term equivalent age on a 3T MRI using a multi-echo susceptibility-weighted imaging sequence. Susceptibility values were calculated from QSM images to determine oxygen saturation (SvO2) in the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) and central cerebral veins (CCV). The paramagnetic components of QSM images were isolated, and SvO2 values were recalculated. The mean SvO2 values from QSM were 72.4% (SD, 3.4%) for the SSS and 68.7% (SD, 3.5%) for the CCV. SvO2 values for paramagnetic components were 58.1% (SD, 7.3%) for the SSS and 57.7% (SD, 7.0%) for the CCV. While paramagnetic component decomposition yielded SSS values closer to those found in the literature, it increased variability. No significant oxygenation differences were found between the SSS and CCV, contrasting with prior studies.
