Visualizing myocardial function using HARP MRI.
Harmonic phase magnetic resonance imaging (HARP) is a new technique for measuring the motion of the left ventricle of the heart. HARP uses magnetic resonance tagging, Fourier filtering and special processing algorithms to calculate key indices of myocardial motion including Eulerian and Lagrangian strain. This paper presents several new methods for visualizing myocardial motion based on HARP. Q...
متن کاملAssessment of Myocardial Function using Phase Based Motion Sensitive MRI
Quantitative assessment of myocardial function is a valuable tool for clinical applications and physiological studies. This assessment can be acquired using phase based motion sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques. In this thesis, the accuracy of these phase based motion sensitive MRI techniques is investigated, and modifications in acquisition and postprocessing are proposed. T...
متن کاملSpiral Off-Resonance Distortion Correction for Tagged MRI Using Spectral Peak Matching and HARP Refinement
INTRODUCTION: Tagging MRI is a gold standard technique [1] to estimate regional myocardial motion and strain. Harmonic phase (HARP) [2] processing is commonly used to extract motion and strain from tagged images. However, in the presence of B0 inhomogeneity, tagging lines can be significantly corrupted due to the phase accumulated during the echo time and, spatial distortion and blurring associ...
متن کاملMeasuring tongue motion from tagged cine-MRI using harmonic phase (HARP) processing.
A cine series of tagged magnetic resonance (MR) images of the tongue is used to measure tongue motion and its internal deformation during speech. Tagged images are collected in three slice orientations (sagittal, coronal, and axial) during repetitions of the utterance "disouk" (/disuk/). A new technique called harmonic phase MRI (HARP-MRI) is used to process the tagged MR images to measure the ...
متن کاملComparison of HARP MRI Tagging Analysis and Manual Approach for Quantification of Left Ventricular Strain in Rats after Myocardial Infarction
Harmonic Phase (HARP) analysis of MR tagging was proposed for fast and automated assessment of myocardium kinematics. In this study, its outcome was evluated in a rat model of myocadial infarction with comparsion to maunally based approach. The results indicated that manual and HARP analysis exhibited a good concordance in assessing alterations in myocaridium wall motion despite the fact that t...
