Proton MR Spectroscopy in Fatty Liver: Single Volume Spectroscopy versus Chemical Shift Imaging
Proton MR Spectroscopy has been applied to the evaluation of fatty liver , but few comparisons has been made between different clinical spectroscopic techniques. Using similar parameters for spectral acquisition and consistent positioning of the volume of interest (VOI) , we compared the semiquantitative data of methylene(-CH2) groups of trilycerides of rat fatty liver obtained by SE sequence ,...
متن کاملHybrid MR-PET - Simultaneous FET-PET and Chemical Shift Imaging
Introduction Positron emission tomography is a widely used and established tool for clinical tumour diagnosis and is the gold standard for metabolic imaging. The method complements MR imaging with respect to its metabolic specificity and helps to judge the malignancy and extent of the tumour tissue. Recently, the need to perform two separate scans has been negated through the development of new...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted Mr imaging for characterization of Focal Pancreatic lesions1
Koung Mi Kang, MD Jeong Min Lee, MD Jeong Hee Yoon, MD Berthold Kiefer, PhD Joon Koo Han, MD Byung Ihn Choi, MD Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic potential of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM)–derived parameters for differentiation of common pancreatic tumors, chronic pancreatitis, and normal pancreas and for characterization of the malignancy potent...
متن کاملEchoplanar chemical shift imaging.
A novel method of chemical shift imaging utilizing echoplanar imaging (EPI) has been developed for the purpose of improving the spatial resolution of metabolite images for the specific goal of high spatial resolution mapping of neuronal content. An EPI sequence was modified to allow temporal offsets of the 180 degree refocusing pulse that encode the chemical shift information into the phase of ...
متن کاملHigh-resolution interleaved water-fat MR imaging of finger joints with chemical-shift elimination.
PURPOSE To study the use of an interleaved water-fat (IWF) sequence with a custom-made radiofrequency (RF) coil for high-resolution imaging of arthritic finger joints. MATERIALS AND METHODS High-resolution finger magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed using a custom-made dedicated RF receiver coil and an IWF sequence. A phantom, a cadaver finger specimen, and the fingers of two normal...
