Procedures for Evaluation of Slice Thickness in Medical Imaging Systems
The main goal of a medical imaging system is to produce images to provide more accurate and timely diagnoses (Torfeh et al., 2007). In particular, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and Ultrasound (US) are resourceful tools in medical practice, and in many cases a life saving resource when rapid decisions are needed in the emergency room (Rehani et al., 2000). The above...
متن کاملAutomatic quality assessment for multi-slice 2D FLAIR MR imaging
Introduction: Many clinical MRI protocols use the fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) contrast to better delineate tissue abnormalities such as white matter lesions. Most FLAIR protocols acquire data in a 2D fashion. FLAIR images are often degraded by patient motion, especially when scanning uncooperative patients. Typical motion patterns induce inter-slice misalignment, ghosting and bl...
متن کاملOn-line automatic slice positioning for brain MR imaging.
In clinical brain MR imaging protocols, the technician collects a quick localizer and manually positions the subsequent scans using the localizer as a guide. We present a method for automatic slice positioning using a rapidly acquired 3D localizer. The localizer is automatically aligned to a statistical atlas representing 40 healthy subjects. The atlas contains the probability of a given tissue...
متن کاملInterpolated Compressed Sensing for 2D Multiple Slice Fast MR Imaging
Sparse MRI has been introduced to reduce the acquisition time and raw data size by undersampling the k-space data. However, the image quality, particularly the contrast to noise ratio (CNR), decreases with the undersampling rate. In this work, we proposed an interpolated Compressed Sensing (iCS) method to further enhance the imaging speed or reduce data size without significant sacrifice of ima...
متن کاملThe effect of variation in slice thickness and interslice gap on MR lesion detection.
Lesion detection by MR imaging depends on the contrast-to-noise ratio of the voxels containing the lesion relative to those containing the background. When the lesion voxels are less than completely filled, the inherent contrast between lesion and background is modified by the filling factor. Lesion detection thus depends on lesion size, slice thickness, lesion position relative to slice, thick...
