Synthetic quantitative MRI through relaxometry modelling
Quantitative MRI (qMRI) provides standardized measures of specific physical parameters that are sensitive to the underlying tissue microstructure and are a first step towards achieving maps of biologically relevant metrics through in vivo histology using MRI. Recently proposed models have described the interdependence of qMRI parameters. Combining such models with the concept of image synthesis...
متن کاملMRI Relaxometry: Methods and Applications
Aspects of magnetic resonance relaxation measurements in human tissues are discussed. The influence of pulse sequences and parameters are compared and analyzed for different tissues. By controlling the acquisition parameters and data fitting the relaxation rate can be useful in several clinical situations. The influence of repetition and echo time, predicted in sequences of signal acquisition, ...
متن کاملEfficient 2D MRI relaxometry using compressed sensing.
Potential applications of 2D relaxation spectrum NMR and MRI to characterize complex water dynamics (e.g., compartmental exchange) in biology and other disciplines have increased in recent years. However, the large amount of data and long MR acquisition times required for conventional 2D MR relaxometry limits its applicability for in vivo preclinical and clinical MRI. We present a new MR pipeli...
متن کاملWater-Specific Quantitative MRI Relaxometry of the Brain using Spatial-Spectral Water Excitation: Preliminary Experience
Methods: The mixed turbo spin echo pulse (mixed-TSE) sequence was implemented with second order binomial water-selective spatial-spectral excitation pulses (1), hereafter SSE-mixed-TSE (Figure 1). Mixed-TSE is a four time point pulse sequence that incorporates the principles of differential T1and T2-weighting in a single acquisition. By substituting the standard spatially-selective excitation p...
متن کاملTissue microstructure characterisation through relaxometry and diffusion MRI using sparse component analysis
We introduce a new approach to characterise brain tissue microstructure combining diffusion MRI and relaxometry. The tissue is modelled as a composition of water pools with distinct T2 and diffusivities. Mathematically, we establish a blind source separation framework that we solve using sparse component analysis. Results show that this technique is able to extract distinct diffusion and relaxo...
