Improvements in parallel imaging accelerated functional MRI using multiecho echo-planar imaging.
Multiecho echo-planar imaging (EPI) was implemented for blood-oxygenation-level-dependent functional MRI at 1.5 T and compared to single-echo EPI with and without parallel imaging acceleration. A time-normalized breath-hold task using a block design functional MRI protocol was carried out in combination with up to four echo trains per excitation and parallel imaging acceleration factors R = 1-3...
متن کاملEcho-Planar Cardiac MRI using Parallel Imaging
Since it’s original proposal by Mansfield et al. in 1977 [1], echo-planar imaging (EPI) has had a key role in the evolution of cardiac MRI. EPI involves the rapid acqusition of k-space data in a raster-like fashion, requiring a fewer number of excitations compared to conventional 2DFT imaging. This is crucial in cardiac imaging as respiratory and cardiac motion places high demands on imaging sp...
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 کاملHigh temporal resolution functional MRI using parallel echo volumar imaging.
PURPOSE To combine parallel imaging with 3D single-shot acquisition (echo volumar imaging, EVI) in order to acquire high temporal resolution volumar functional MRI (fMRI) data. MATERIALS AND METHODS An improved EVI sequence was associated with parallel acquisition and field of view reduction in order to acquire a large brain volume in 200 msec. Temporal stability and functional sensitivity we...
متن کاملAccelerated Proton Echo-Planar Spectroscopic Imaging Using Parallel Imaging and Compressed Sensing
INTRODUCTION: Proton Echo-Planar Spectroscopic Imaging (PEPSI) provides fast spatial-spectral encoding and has been demonstrated to map a variety of metabolites in the human brain [1,2]. Further acceleration in PEPSI can be accomplished by using parallel imaging along the phaseencoding dimension(s) [3,4]. However, the acceleration is limited by the relatively low SNR of the metabolites and g-fa...
