investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Highly accelerated 7 T prostate imaging using parallel imaging
Introduction Due to stronger signal attenuation and high SAR levels, prostate imaging at 7 Tesla is a challenging procedure. Nevertheless, it has been demonstrated with various surface coil array designs [1,2,3]. For this work we used an array of single-side adapted dipole antennas [1]. The elements of this array have been designed according to a radiative design principle maximizing the power ...
متن کاملReduced field-of-view diffusion-weighted imaging of the brain at 7 T.
Ventral and rostral regions of the brain are of emerging importance for the MRI characterization of early dementia, traumatic brain injury and epilepsy. Unfortunately, standard single-shot echo planar diffusion-weighted imaging of these regions at high fields is contaminated by severe imaging artifacts in the vicinity of air-tissue interfaces. To mitigate these artifacts and improve visualizati...
متن کاملIn vivo 31P MR spectroscopic imaging of the human prostate at 7 T: safety and feasibility.
(31)P MR spectroscopic imaging of the human prostate provides information about phosphorylated metabolites that could be used for prostate cancer characterization. The sensitivity of a magnetic field strength of 7 T might enable 3D (31)P MR spectroscopic imaging with relevant spatial resolution in a clinically acceptable measurement time. To this end, a (31)P endorectal coil was developed and c...
متن کاملQuantitative magnetization transfer imaging of human brain at 7 T
Quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT) imaging yields indices describing the interactions between free water protons and immobile macromolecular protons. These indices include the macromolecular to free pool size ratio (PSR), which has been shown to be correlated with myelin content in white matter. Because of the long scan times required for whole-brain imaging (≈20-30 min), qMT studies of ...
