Brain morphometry with multiecho MPRAGE
In brain morphometry studies using magnetic resonance imaging, several scans with a range of contrasts are often collected. The images may be locally distorted due to imperfect shimming in regions where magnetic susceptibility changes rapidly, and all scans may not be distorted in the same way. In multispectral studies it is critical that the edges of structures align precisely across all contr...
متن کاملMultiple Echo and Inversion Time MPRAGE with Inner Loop GRAPPA Acceleration and Prospective Motion Correction for Minimally Distorted Multispectral Brain Morphometry
Target audience: Clinicians and researchers interested in efficient high quality brain imaging, multispectral morphometry and tissue parameter mapping with a single modified MPRAGE acquisition. Purpose: Distortions and blurring in MPRAGE affect morphometric measurements (e.g. cortical thickness) that are signatures of brain disease. Remaining B0-inhomogeneities after shimming result in accumula...
متن کاملAccelerating time-resolved MRA with multiecho acquisition.
A new four-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) technique called contrast-enhanced angiography with multiecho and radial k-space is introduced, which accelerates the acquisition using multiecho while maintaining a high spatial resolution and increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). An acceleration factor of approximately 2 is achieved without parallel imaging or undersampling by ...
متن کاملAtlas Warping for Brain Morphometry
In this work, we describe an automated approach to morphometry based on spatial normalizations of the data, and demonstrate its application to the analysis of gender diierences in the human corpus callosum. The purpose is to describe a population by a reduced and representative set of variables, from which a prior model can be constructed. Our approach is rooted in the assumption that individua...
متن کاملComputer Simulations of 3D MPRAGE in Human Brain with Inclusion of Inadvertent Magnetization Transfer Effects
Introduction: In the human brain, both white matter and gray matter contain significant amounts of bound water. Although the bound water is not directly seen in conventional MRI experiments, due to its very short T2, the effects of RF pulses on the bound water can influence the free water signal through proton exchange. This effect is known as magnetization transfer (MT) [1], and when MT effect...
