Whither catheter-based intravascular magnetic resonance imaging of atherosclerosis?
t w c b w o i w a a b t t s e t i o great deal of hype and excitement accompanied the advent of catheter-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the vessel wall at the end of the 1990s. Initial tudies were performed in the vessels ex vivo that emonstrated excellent correlation with histologial characteristics of the imaged plaques (1–3). A roblem arose that once the catheter was inserted n an...
متن کاملIntravascular magnetic resonance imaging using a loopless catheter antenna.
Recently, intravascular catheter probes have been developed to increase signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for MR imaging of blood vessels. Miniaturization of these catheter probes without degrading their performances is very critical in imaging small vessels such as coronary arteries. Catheter coils have a loop incorporated in their structure and have limitations in physical dimensions and electromag...
متن کاملSegmentation of Magnetic Resonance Brain Imaging Based on Graph Theory
Introduction: Segmentation of brain images especially from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential requirement in medical imaging since the tissues, edges, and boundaries between them are ambiguous and difficult to detect, due to the proximity of the brightness levels of the images. Material and Methods: In this paper, the graph-base...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of feline eye
The purpose of this study was to investigate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the normal feline eyeand optic nerves using T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. A total of 6 healthy female domestic short haircats age 2-2.5 years and weighing 3.2 ± 0.4 kg were selected. Magnetic resonance imaging data werecollected using GEMSOW (Philips) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. Dorsal, sagittal, a...
