3D Diffusion-Weighted Xe MRI for Whole Lung Morphometry
Purpose: To obtain whole lung morphometry measurements from Xe in a single breath-hold with 3D multiple b-value Xe diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) with an empirically optimized diffusion time and compressed sensing for scan acceleration. Methods: Prospective three-fold undersampled 3D multiple bvalue hyperpolarized Xe DW-MRI datasets were acquired, and the diffusion time (D) was iterated so as ...
متن کاملBrain Morphometry Using Diffusion Weighted MRI: Application to Schizophrenia
Loss of cortical gray matter is accompanied by a commensurate increase in the sulcal and intraventricular cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume. On diffusion weighted MRI, this would be reflected as a higher apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in affected brain regions. We propose voxelwise analysis of ADC maps as an indirect method for assessment of regional brain volume deficits. Here we demonstr...
متن کاملWhole lung morphometry with 3D multiple b‐value hyperpolarized gas MRI and compressed sensing
PURPOSE To demonstrate three-dimensional (3D) multiple b-value diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI of hyperpolarized 3 He gas for whole lung morphometry with compressed sensing (CS). METHODS A fully-sampled, two b-value, 3D hyperpolarized 3 He DW-MRI dataset was acquired from the lungs of a healthy volunteer and retrospectively undersampled in the ky and kz phase-encoding directions for CS simulation...
متن کاملWhole-body diffusion-weighted MRI: tips, tricks, and pitfalls.
OBJECTIVE We examine the clinical impetus for whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI and discuss how to implement the technique with clinical MRI systems. We include practical tips and tricks to optimize image quality and reduce artifacts. The interpretative pitfalls are enumerated, and potential challenges are highlighted. CONCLUSION Whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI can be used for tumor staging...
متن کاملAssessing extracranial tumors using diffusion-weighted whole-body MRI.
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) provides qualitative and quantitative information about the random motion of water molecules in biological tissues and is able to give functional insight into tissue architecture and pathological changes on a cellular level. This technique has the major advantages of not requiring the administration of contrast agents and not exposing the pati...
