Multiecho IDEAL gradient-echo water-fat separation for rapid assessment of cartilage volume at 1.5 T: initial experience.
Institutional review board approval and informed consent were obtained for this HIPAA-compliant study. The purpose was to prospectively compare multiecho iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation (IDEAL) gradient-echo (GRE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with three-dimensional fat-suppressed (FS) spoiled GRE (SPGR) MR imaging to evaluate the arti...
متن کاملMicrosoft Word - ISMRM2009-000726.DOC
Introduction Due to its high imaging speed and SNR efficiency, spoiled gradient echo imaging plays an important role in many quantitative MR methods. For example, a variable flip angle (VFA) method [1] is now widely used for in vivo T1 mapping due to its time efficiency and large 3D anatomical coverage. Recently, an actual flipangle imaging (AFI) technique [2], which utilizes two interleaved sp...
متن کاملImproved Radial Spoiled Gradient Echo Imaging with Randomized RF Phases and Gradient Moments
Introduction Radiofrequency (RF) spoiling is the most established spoiling method for gradient echo imaging. It is based on a quadratic variation of RF (and receiver) phase angles in successive TRs, coupled with a constant gradient moment at the end of each TR period to create a range of resonance offset angles within each imaging voxel (1). However, it was recognized that RF spoiling yields no...
متن کاملQuantification of blood-brain-barrier permeability dysregulation and inflammatory activity in MS lesions by dynamic-contrast enhanced MR imaging
Objective: Measurement of blood-brain permeability dysfunction in active and chronic MS lesions with T1-weighted dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to show variation in inflammatory activity Background: blood-brain-barrier perfusion characterization impaired in MS as some studies have shown recently buta comparison between perfusion parameters in contrast-enhanced and non-enhanced lesions not have ...
متن کاملT1 corrected multipeak T2*-IDEAL gradient-echo imaging for the quantification of intermuscular adipose tissue
Introduction: Intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) has been recently associated with different metabolic abnormalities including obesity and insulin resistance [1]. The distribution and the total amount of IMAT have been traditionally assessed using T1-weighted imaging [1]. However, quantification of IMAT based on T1-weighted imaging is limited by partial volume effects and requires effective se...
