Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery is an MRI sequence with an inversion recovery set to null fluids. For example, it can be used in brain imaging to suppress cerebrospinal fluid effects on the image, so as to bring out the periventricular hyperintense lesions, such as multiple sclerosis plaques. It was invented by Dr. Graeme Bydder. FLAIR can be used with both three-dimensional imaging or two dimensional imaging.
