Intensity-Corrected Dual-Echo Echo-Planar Imaging (DE-EPI) for Improved Pediatric Brain Diffusion Imaging
Here we investigate the utility of a dual-echo Echo-Planar Imaging (DE-EPI) Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) approach to improve lesion conspicuity in pediatric imaging. This method delivers two 'echo images' for one diffusion-preparation period. We also demonstrate how the echoes can be utilized to remove transmit/receive coil-induced and static magnetic field intensity modulations on both ech...
متن کاملCorrection for EPI distortions using multi-echo gradient-echo imaging.
A novel and effective technique is described for distortion correction in echo planar imaging (EPI) utilizing the field maps derived from multi-echo gradient-echo images. The distortions from different off-resonance related factors such as field inhomogeneity, eddy current effect, radiofrequency pulse frequency offset, and chemical shift effect can be simultaneously reduced to a great extent. W...
متن کاملImproved spectroscopic imaging using echo-planar scans and sparse reconstruction
INTRODUCTION Model-based spectroscopic imaging techniques were originally proposed to reduce the number of phase encodes, and consequently the scan time [1,2]. However, in practice, these techniques can give significant artifacts for a low number of spatial encodes. This is mainly due to the assumptions embedded in the model being violated. On the other hand, it is well known that fast scan tec...
متن کاملFunctional MRI using sensitivity-encoded echo planar imaging (SENSE-EPI).
Parallel imaging methods become increasingly available on clinical MR scanners. To investigate the potential of sensitivity-encoded single-shot EPI (SENSE-EPI) for functional MRI, five imaging protocols at different SENSE reduction factors (R) and matrix sizes were compared with respect to their noise characteristics and their sensitivity toward functional activation in a motor task examination...
متن کاملEcho-planar imaging.
Echo-planar imaging is a fast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging technique that allows acquisition of single images in as little as 20 msec and performance of multiple-image studies in as little as 20 seconds. Echo-planar imaging achieves its speed by obtaining all spatial-encoding information after a single radio-frequency (RF) excitation. Conventional imaging requires multiple-RF excitations, se...
