Breast tissue differentiation using arterial spin tagging.
An arterial spin tagging (AST) pulse sequence has been developed to measure T(1) and relative blood perfusion. This full sequence is composed of three sequences: selective tagging, nonselective tagging, and nontagging. Perfusion quantification error resulting from imperfect inversion and acquisition slice profiles has been addressed in the literature. In this work, the error is reduced through ...
متن کاملChallenges for non-invasive brain perfusion quantification using arterial spin labeling.
Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) sequences for perfusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) have recently become available to be used in the clinical practice, offering a completely non-invasive technique for the quantitative evaluation of brain perfusion. Despite its great potential, ASL perfusion imaging still presents important methodological challenges before its incorporation in routine protocol...
متن کاملPerfusion imaging using arterial spin labeling.
Arterial spin labeling is a magnetic resonance method for the measurement of cerebral blood flow. In its simplest form, the perfusion contrast in the images gathered by this technique comes from the subtraction of two successively acquired images: one with, and one without, proximal labeling of arterial water spins after a small delay time. Over the last decade, the method has moved from the ex...
متن کاملBreast Perfusion Imaging Using Arterial Spin Labeling
Delay 2 s Fig. 1. ASL experiment from a volunteer at 1.5T. (a) The imaging slice and labeling slab are depicted by yellow and blue boxes. (b) Fat-saturated SPGR image. Perfusion images are shown in (c-e) for delay times of 1 s, 1.5 s and 2 s. Arteries located close to the skin are depicted well; however, perfusion in glandular tissue is hardly visible. The yellow arrow shows an artery which doe...
متن کاملQuantification of perfusion fMRI using a numerical model of arterial spin labeling that accounts for dynamic transit time effects.
A new approach to modeling the signal observed in arterial spin labeling (ASL) experiments during changing perfusion conditions is presented in this article. The new model uses numerical methods to extend first-order kinetic principles to include the changes in arrival time of the arterial tag that occur during neuronal activation. Estimation of the perfusion function from the ASL signal using ...
