the effect of inversion time on the relationship between iron oxide nanoparticles concentration and signal intensity in t1-weighted mr images
conclusions ti is an important parameter to consider in the relationship between si and nanoparticle concentrations. an increase in ti leads to a decrease in the range of linearity. results the results indicate that si depended on the concentration of nanoparticles and ti. in addition, si increased by increasing the tis ranging from 200 to 400 ms for all studied concentrations. the linear relat...
متن کاملT1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging sequence appropriate for the evaluation of the longitudinal relaxation effect of superparamagnetic iron oxide: a phantom study.
The goal of this study was to determine a T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequence appropriate for evaluating the longitudinal relaxation effect of superparamagnetic iron oxide (ferumoxides) in a phantom study. An agarose phantom that included various concentrations of ferumoxides (0 - 0.5 mmol/l in 0.05 mmol/l increments) was examined for six types of T1-weighted imaging sequences ...
متن کاملEffect of iron oxide nanoparticles coating type on the relationship between nanoparticles concentration and signal intensity in inver-sion recovery T1-weighted MRI
Background: Ultrasmallsuperparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) nanoparticles are used as blood pool contrast agent for magnetic resonance angiography and perfusion imaging. Our aim in this study was to investigate the effect of the two coating types of iron oxide nanoparticles on the relationship between nanoparticles concentration and signal intensity (SI) in T1-weighted MR images. Methods : D...
متن کاملEffect of Echo Time on the Maximum Relationship between Contrast Agent Concentration and Signal Intensity Using FLAIR Sequence
Introduction Contrast-enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) is one of the MRI sequences that can be used for detection and evaluation of pathological changes in the brain. In this work, we have studied the effect of different echo times (TE) on the maximum relationship between signal intensity and concentration of the contrast agent using the FLAIR sequence. Materials and Methods...
متن کاملThe Effect of Inversion Time on the Relationship Between Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Concentration and Signal Intensity in T1-Weighted MR Images
BACKGROUND Magnetic nanoparticles have been widely applied in recent years for biomedical applications. Signal intensity (SI) of magnetic resonance (MR) images depends on the concentration of nanoparticles. It is important to find the minimum concentration of iron oxide nanoparticles that produces maximum SI and determines the minimum injection dose for clinical studies. OBJECTIVES This study...
