SENSE: sensitivity encoding for fast MRI.
New theoretical and practical concepts are presented for considerably enhancing the performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by means of arrays of multiple receiver coils. Sensitivity encoding (SENSE) is based on the fact that receiver sensitivity generally has an encoding effect complementary to Fourier preparation by linear field gradients. Thus, by using multiple receiver coils in par...
متن کاملDetection of hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma: comparison of SPIO-enhanced MRI with dynamic helical CT.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced MRI for the detection of hypervascular hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with dynamic helical CT. METHODS SPIO-enhanced MR and dynamic helical CT images obtained from 41 patients with 52 hypervascular HCCs (5-130 mm; mean, 27 mm) were retrospectively analyzed. MRI were obta...
متن کاملNon-hypervascular Hypointense Nodules on Hepatocyte Phase Gadoxetic Acid-Enhanced MR Images: Transformation of MR Hepatobiliary Hypointense Nodules into Hypervascular Hepatocellular Carcinomas
Background/Aims The annual risk of transformation of non-hypervascular magnetic resonance (MR) hepatobiliary phase imaging (HBPI) hypointense nodules into hypervascular hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) was evaluated. Methods Cirrhotic patients with non-hypervascular HBPI hypointense nodules were retrospectively analyzed if they were diagnosed as HCC and MR followed up longer than 1 year durin...
متن کاملImproving security of double random phase encoding with chaos theory using fractal images
This study presents a new method based on the combination of cryptography and information hiding methods. Firstly, the image is encoded by the Double Random Phase Encoding (DRPE) technique. The real and imaginary parts of the encoded image are subsequently embedded into an enlarged normalized host image. DRPE demands two random phase mask keys to decode the decrypted image at the destination. T...
متن کاملHypervascular liver lesions on MRI.
T he superb liver-to-lesion contrast of MRI and its ability to display the same lesion enhancement patterns as CT combined with its lack of ionizing radiation have led to this modality being widely accepted for assessing the broad spectrum of hepatic abnormalities. Moreover, hepatocyte-specific contrast agents are now available. The differential diagnosis of hypervascular hepatic lesions depend...
