Homodyne Reconstruction of Partial Fourier Readout-Segmented EPI for Diffusion Imaging
Readout-segmented EPI (RS-EPI) with GRAPPA parallel imaging, 2D navigator correction and navigator-based re-acquisition has been used to acquire high resolution diffusion-weighted images with reduced susceptibility artifact and blurring from T2* signal decay compared to single shot EPI (ssEPI) [1-3]. However, for RS-EPI to be used in a clinical setting the scan time must be reduced further to b...
متن کاملHigh-Resolution Diffusion-Weighted Imaging of the Orbits Using Readout-Segmented EPI
Introduction: Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) has demonstrated great value for the diagnostic workup of acute ischemic stroke and other abnormalities of the neurocranium, such as abscesses, CJD, etc. Similar diagnostic benefits could be anticipated from using DWI on orbital pathologies. High on the list of interesting pathologies are certainly periorbital dermoids/epidermois, fungal and pyogenic i...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted imaging of the spine with readout-segmented (RS)-EPI
Introduction: The development of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of the spine has been hindered by the large off-resonance effects problematic for single-shot EPI. Overcoming these restrictions would open up applications ranging from the diagnosis of spinal cord infarction, vertebral body fractures, lymphoma, trauma, and many other disorders. Navigated interleaved EPI has been shown to overcom...
متن کاملDiffusion-Weighted Imaging of the Abdomen with Readout-Segmented (RS)-EPI
Introduction: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the abdomen has proven useful for various pathologies, including liver lesion characterization [1-4] and simple vessel suppression, diagnosis of diffuse renal disease [5-8], and detection of metastatic spread to lymph nodes [9,10]. However, image distortions arising from the use of EPI has shown to be problematic. We have recently applied DW ‘Sh...
متن کاملMulti-Shot, Diffusion-Weighted Imaging at 3T using Readout-Segmented EPI and GRAPPA
D. A. Porter, R. M. Heidemann MR Applications Development, Siemens Medical Solutions, Erlangen, Germany Introduction Diffusion-weighted, single-shot EPI suffers from considerable susceptibility-based distortion artefact at 3T. Although the effects can be mitigated by using a partially parallel imaging (PPA) technique to reduce the effective echo-spacing [1], there are significant residual artef...
