Quantitative magnetization transfer imaging using balanced SSFP.
It is generally accepted that signal formation in balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) is a simple function of relaxation times and flip angle only. This can be confirmed for fluids, but for more complex substances, magnetization transfer (MT) can lead to a considerable loss of steady-state signal. Thus, especially in tissues, the analytical description of bSSFP requires a revision to ...
متن کاملCardiac BOLD Imaging with Cine 2D-Balanced SSFP
Introduction Detecting changes in oxygen content in tissues can aid in understanding pathological processes. In the MR environment, changes in blood oxygen saturation are accompanied by local magnetic field variations sampled by the spins, allowing for acquisition of oxygen-weighted images [1-2]. This observation has been exploited in identifying myocardial oxygen deficits that originate from c...
متن کاملTime Optimal VERSE Excitation for 3D Balanced SSFP Imaging
Figure 3. Coronal (top) and axial (bottom) views from a 3D acquisiton slightly above the heart. Images have 2x2x3 mm resolution. The coronal image shows the 4cm, TB=10 slab profile in vivo. The contrast is consistent across the slab, indicating a flat slab profile. The black level is 0 for these images. Introduction: Balanced steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging (TrueFISP, FIESTA, balanc...
متن کاملSSFP-based MR thermometry.
Of the various techniques employed to quantify temperature changes by MR, proton resonance frequency (PRF) shift-based phase-difference imaging (PDI) is the most accurate and widely used. However, PDI is associated with various artifacts. Motivated by these limitations, we developed a new method to monitor temperature changes by MRI using the balanced steady-state free precession (balanced-SSFP...
متن کاملNon-contrast-enhanced flow-independent peripheral MR angiography with balanced SSFP.
Flow-independent angiography is a non-contrast-enhanced technique that can generate vessel contrast even with reduced blood flow in the lower extremities. A method is presented for producing these angiograms with magnetization-prepared balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP). Because bSSFP yields bright fat signal, robust fat suppression is essential for detailed depiction of the vasculat...
