Gradient-Echo Pulse Sequences
The basic idea of parallel imaging is to reduce the number of acquisition steps (i.e. phase-encoding steps) by decreasing the sampling density in kspace. Artefacts, in particular aliasing artefacts, that would result from the reduced sampling density are compensated by employing image data from several independent coil elements with different spatial sensitivity profi les for reconstruction. Th...
متن کاملTissue temperature monitoring with multiple gradient-echo imaging sequences.
The inherent sensitivity of multiple gradient-echo sequences to the chemical shift is exploited to rapidly map muscle water frequency shifts caused by ultrasonic heating. The use of multiple echoes is shown to offer several advantages over single gradient-echo approaches previously proposed for temperature measurement. An increase in the effective bandwidth significantly reduces aliasing proble...
متن کاملComparison of gradient-recalled-echo and T2-weighted spin-echo pulse sequences in intramedullary spinal lesions.
Nineteen consecutive patients with spinal intramedullary lesions were studied on a 1.5-T system to compare the quality of T2-weighted spin-echo and gradient-recalled-echo (GRE) pulse sequences. Direct comparisons were made in the sagittal and/or axial planes. Twenty-four studies were performed in the 19 patients. The gradient echoes were usually performed at 300/14 (TR/TE) with a flip angle of ...
متن کاملIn Vivo Myelin Water Imaging Using 3d Multi-gradient-echo Pulse Sequences
Introduction. Quantitative imaging of the myelin water fraction (MWF) is able to show demyelinating processes and therefore provides insight into the pathology of white matter (WM) diseases such as multiple sclerosis. So far, mapping of the MWF most often was performed using single-slice multi-echo spin-echo sequences (1). Lately, a different approach, using multi-gradient-echo pulse sequences,...
متن کاملUncertainty and bias in contrast concentration measurements using spoiled gradient echo pulse sequences.
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is a widely used technique for assessing tissue physiology. Spoiled gradient echo (SPGR) pulse sequences are one of the most common methods for acquisition of DCE-MRI data, providing high temporal and spatial resolution with strong T(1)-weighting. Conversion of SPGR signal to concentration is briefly reviewed, and a new closed-form ...
