Abstract
Artifacts are occasionally encountered on magnetic resonance imaging after operation. These may be due to minute metallic particles from neurosurgical instruments. Particles not detectable on plain x-ray films or computerized tomography scans may cause local change of magnetic resonance activity, resulting in a deceptive magnetic resonance appearance. Three illustrative case reports are presented.Mesh：
