zebra stripe sign

Zebra stripes/artifacts appear as alternating bright and dark bands in a MRI image. The term has been used to describe several different kind of artifacts causing some confusion.

Zebra stripes have been described associated with susceptibility artifacts.

In CT there is also a zebra artifact from 3D reconstructions and a zebra sign from hemorrhage in the cerebellar sulci .

It therefore seems prudent to use "zebra" with a term like "stripes" rather than "artifacts".
