    Black blood MR imaging enhances visualization of brain metastases by suppressing vessel signals, improving contrast between lesions and vessels.

  • 3

    Thin-slice MR images are recommended for detecting brain metastases, but they face challenges with decreased signal-to-noise ratio.

  • 4

    Deep learning-based image enhancement has potential to improve image quality in thin-section MR imaging for brain metastases.
