Combined Background Field Removal and Reconstruction for Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping
Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) is an emerging Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique that provides in-vivo measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of, e.g., brain tissue. In practice, QSM requires solving a series of challenging inverse problem. Here, we will address two important steps, the removal of the background field, which is caused by sources outside the Region of Int...
متن کاملDiagnosis of patients with Parkinson's disease using quantitative susceptibility mapping
Introduction: Parkinson'sdisease isassociated withirondeposition in the brain. The T2-weighted imaging, T2* mapping, R2 mapping and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) are three common methods to evaluating the iron deposition in brain. Among three methods the QSM is more sensitive than others. Few studies have been used QSM for evaluating the iron deposition in the basa...
متن کاملComparison of Two Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping Measurement Methods Used For Anatomical Localization of the Iron-Incorporated Deep Brain Nuclei
Introduction Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) is a new contrast mechanism in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The images produced by the QSM enable researchers and clinicians to easily localize specific structures of the brain, such as deep brain nuclei. These nuclei are targets in many clinical applications and therefore their easy localization is a must. In this study, we aimed to i...
متن کاملEx-vivo quantitative susceptibility mapping of human brain hemispheres
Ex-vivo brain quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) allows investigation of brain characteristics at essentially the same point in time as histopathologic examination, and therefore has the potential to become an important tool for determining the role of QSM as a diagnostic and monitoring tool of age-related neuropathologies. In order to be able to translate the ex-vivo QSM findings to in-...
متن کاملMeasurement of iron concentration in human brain using Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM): correlation with age
Introduction: Excessive iron deposition is often associated with neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease and Huntington’s Chorea [1]. Quantitative measurement of regional iron deposition in the brain may help with diagnosis and assessment of disease progression. In order to use iron deposition as a new biomarker to stratify the stages of diseases, it i...
