Image reconstruction in SNR units: a general method for SNR measurement.
The method for phased array image reconstruction of uniform noise images may be used in conjunction with proper image scaling as a means of reconstructing images directly in SNR units. This facilitates accurate and precise SNR measurement on a per pixel basis. This method is applicable to root-sum-of-squares magnitude combining, B(1)-weighted combining, and parallel imaging such as SENSE. A pro...
متن کاملA Nonlinear GRAPPA Method for Improving SNR
INTRODUCTION GRAPPA [1] reconstructs the missing k-space data by a linear combination of the acquired data using a set of weights obtained through calibrations. Several methods have been proposed in recent years to improve GRAPPA using localized coil calibration and variable density sampling [2], multicolumn multiline interpolation [3], regularization [4,5], reweighted least square [6], high-pa...
متن کاملSNR Degradation in Undersampled Phase Measurement Systems
A wide range of measuring applications rely on phase estimation on sinusoidal signals. These systems, where the estimation is mainly implemented in the digital domain, can generally benefit from the use of undersampling to reduce the digitizer and subsequent digital processing requirements. This may be crucial when the application characteristics necessarily imply a simple and inexpensive senso...
متن کاملA new single acquisition, two-image difference method for determining MR image SNR.
A new method for computing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of magnetic resonance images is presented. The proposed method is a "difference of images" based technique where two images are produced from one acquisition in which the readout direction field of view (FOV) and matrix size are doubled compared to the phase encode direction. Two "normal" unaliased FOV images are produced by splitting (...
متن کاملImage SNR with energy-selective detectors
This is the last post in my series discussing my paper, “Near optimal energy selective x-ray imaging system performance with simple detectors”[1]. In the last post I showed plots of the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of images with different types of energy-selective detectors. In this post, I show images illustrating these differences. These images were not included in the paper but they are base...
