Background And Purpose: Neuromix is a fast, motion robust multi-contrast sequence capable of providing all diagnostic contrasts in ∼3.5 minutes. However, more evaluation is needed across the various contrasts compared to gold standard, optimized sequences routinely used in the clinic.

Article Synopsis
  • Overuse of CT angiography (CTA) for minor neurological issues can cause unnecessary radiation exposure and may require follow-up MRI for proper diagnosis.
  • A study evaluated the effectiveness of a fast MRI protocol called NeuroMix, combined with MRA, against CTAH for patients within 24 hours, with results indicating that the MRI approach was equivalent or superior in most cases.
  • The findings suggest that the new MRI techniques can provide better or similar diagnostic information in 95% of instances, reducing reliance on CTA for certain patient populations.

Herein, we report the synthesis and sensing characteristics of 4,4'-methoxy-substituted BODIPY fluorescent probes (O-BODIPYs) 3, 4 and 5 equipped with differently sized benzo-crown ethers (cf. Scheme 1, 3 (benzo-15-crown-5), 4 (benzo-18-crown-6) and 5 (benzo-21-crown7)). O-BODIPYs 3, 4 and 5 exhibited in comparison to their known F-BODIPY analogues 3a, 4a and 5a (cf.
