The ventricles appear bright in a T2-weighed brain image due to:
A. ) the high water content and long T2 relaxation time of CSF in the ventricle
B. ) the long T1 relaxation time for CSF in the ventricle
C. ) the longer T2 relaxation time of white matter
When scanning the knee for meniscal tears a T2-weighted image is used because:

B. ) the patient tells you that the implant is non-magnetic
C. ) the referring doctor supplies evidence that the metal implant is non-magnetic and certified as MR safe at the field strength of the scanner
