Fast Single Breath-hold 3D Abdominal Spiral Imaging with Water / Fat Separation and Off-resonance Correction
Introduction Large volume coverage, short total scan time and robust water/fat separation are important issues in abdominal MRI. Breath-hold approaches are often used to avoid respiratory motion artifacts, which demands for efficient sampling schemes. Spiral imaging is one of them [1], but shows high sensitivity to off-resonance [2]. Image blurring resulting from spatially varying Bo inhomogene...
متن کاملRapid MR imaging of articular cartilage with steady-state free precession and multipoint fat-water separation.
OBJECTIVE To obtain high-quality high-resolution images of articular cartilage with reduced imaging time, we combined a novel technique of generalized multipoint fat-water separation with three-dimensional (3D) steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The cartilage of 10 knees in five healthy volunteers was imaged with 3D SSFP imaging and a multipoint fat-water separa...
متن کاملAdvanced Motion Correction Methods in PET
With the arrival of increasingly higher resolution PET systems, small amounts of motion can cause significant blurring in the images, compared to the intrinsic resolutions of the scanners. In this work, we have reviewed advanced correction methods for the three cases of (i) unwanted patient motion, as well as motions due to (ii) cardiac and (iii) respiratory cycles. For the first type of ...
متن کاملFree-breathing volumetric fat/water separation by combining radial sampling, compressed sensing, and parallel imaging.
PURPOSE Conventional fat/water separation techniques require that patients hold breath during abdominal acquisitions, which often fails and limits the achievable spatial resolution and anatomic coverage. This work presents a novel approach for free-breathing volumetric fat/water separation. METHODS Multiecho data are acquired using a motion-robust radial stack-of-stars three-dimensional GRE s...
متن کاملSkin Imaging at 7T
High-resolution in vivo imaging is SNR-limited. Recently, 7 nL resolution skin imaging was demonstrated at 3 T, using a dedicated 1-inch-diameter receive-only coil [1]. At 7 T, 16 nL resolution images were obtained with a 4-inch-diameter transmit-receive coil [2]. Small coils are well suited to high-field systems where they behave as mid-range coils [3]. However, frequency offsets due to chemic...
