Composite Localization with adiabatic slice selective excitation and refocusing (cLASER) for improved 1H MRSI in non uniform B1 fields
INTRODUCTION: H magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) can be used as a diagnostic tool to distinguish abnormal from normal tissue by obtaining metabolic information which can be used as biomarkers. MRSI can be improved by going to higher field strengths like 7 Tesla which offer increased spectral resolution and SNR. However, at these field strengths the non uniformity of the B1 field ...
متن کاملA slice-selective B1-insensitive composite pulse design for improved excitation uniformity at 7 T
sub-pulses, each with 32 μs duration; (b) optimized phase modulation waveform; (c) simulated values of transverse magnetization for the optimized pulse over a range of relative B1 magnitudes (horizontal axis) and frequency offsets (vertical axis); (d) simulated frequency profiles for various relative B1 magnitudes. A slice-selective B1-insensitive composite pulse design for improved excitation ...
متن کاملImproved Slice Profile and Reduced Fast Spin Echo Spacing with Variable-Rate Selective Excitation
The Variable-Rate Selective Excitation (VERSE) technique is shown to improve image quality by reducing fast spin echo spacing and improving slice profile. An algorithm was developed to use VERSE waveform reshaping to minimize echo spacing given specific prescription parameters and system constraints and was implemented for an SSFSE sequence to create shorter RF pulses with higher time•bandwidth...
متن کاملComposite Slice-Selective 90' Excitation Pulses with Adiabaticity
Slice-selective adiabatic pulses are mostly confined to spin inversion and refocusing pulses. Here composite slice-selective 90" excitation pulses capable of multi-slice applications are proposed. This new class of pulses are based on halved adiabatic MIP pulses with each segment of the halved MIP pulses replaced by a small flip angle slice-selective plane rotation pulse such as a hamming-filte...
