Hi Rex So nice to see you again. I've missed you and how are you keeping?

What does "high T2 and FLAIR signal intensity" mean?

I had understood T2 to be the slice of the ultrasound, and T2 to be the 'not "black holes" (more inflamation type of lesion) . . . but doesn't the flair signal intensity mean enhancing?

Cherie
