-Summary
The purpose of the study is to develop new Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) protocols and methods for image processing and enhancement. Different setting of acquisition parameters used in conventional clinical MRI protocols will be defined, to create "New Protocols". Then post-processing will be applied on new protocols to enhance the image quality. Finally a comparison of image quality will be performed to compare the image quality of images obtained by conventional protocols with those obtained with the New Protocols.

+Outcome measures
Primary outcomes
- Image Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) [Through study completion, an average of 2 months.]: Comparing the SNR of images obtained by conventional protocols with the corresponding New Protocols' processed images. The comparison will be performed by neuroradiologists, using a 7-point Likert-scale. Where higher the score, better the outcome (1 means unacceptable and 7 means excellent).
- Image Resolution [Through study completion, an average of 2 months.]: Comparing the resolution of images obtained by conventional protocols with the corresponding New Protocols' processed images. The comparison will be performed by neuroradiologists, using a 7-point Likert-scale. Where higher the score, better the outcome (1 means unacceptable and 7 means excellent).
- Artifacts [Through study completion, an average of 2 months.]: Comparing artifacts of images obtained by conventional protocols with the corresponding New Protocols' processed images. The comparison will be performed by neuroradiologists, using a 7-point Likert-scale. Where higher the score, better the outcome (1 means unacceptable and 7 means excellent).
- MRI contrast [Through study completion, an average of 2 months.]: Comparing MR contrast of images obtained by conventional protocols with the corresponding New Protocols' processed images. The comparison will be performed by neuroradiologists, using a 7-point Likert-scale. Where higher the score, better the outcome (1 means unacceptable and 7 means excellent).
- Diagnostic quality [Through study completion, an average of 2 months.]: Comparing diagnostic quality of images obtained by conventional protocols with the corresponding New Protocols' processed images. The comparison will be performed by neuroradiologists, using a 7-point Likert-scale. Where higher the score, better the outcome (1 means unacceptable and 7 means excellent).
