PURPOSE: To test the hypothesis that calcium can be visible on MR images without being visible on CT.
METHODS: Five different calcium salts ranging in concentration from 0 to 0.45 g/mL were suspended in 2% agarose gel and studied using T2-weighted MR, T1-weighted MR, and CT. MR signal intensity, CT attenuation, and image noise were measured. Relative visibility was determined from these measurements.
RESULTS: CT was shown to be more than 10 times as sensitive as T2-weighted MR or T1-weighted MR for the detection of calcium.
CONCLUSION: MR cannot show calcium that is occult on CT.
