“Relative Signal Intensity Ratio” denotes relative signal intensity ratio of intra- and extracranial components of JFM to CNS tissue at the same level.
“hyperintense” denotes that signal intensity of the intracranial component of JFM is higher than that of the extracranial component.
“isointense” denotes that the signal intensity of the intracranial component of JFM is equal to that of the extracranial component.
N/A denotes not applicable.
