Magnetization transfer contrast imaging of hepatic neoplasms.
A method of performing magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) using a pulse sequence based on a series of on-resonance binomial pulses preceding a conventional spin-echo sequence has been recently described. We investigated this technique in the evaluation of circumscribed hepatic neoplasms on a 0.5 T imager. Conventional spin-echo imaging was performed in 18 patients with hepatic neoplasms, 15 ...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted EPI with magnetization transfer contrast.
Capabilities of diffusion-weighted (DW) and magnetization transfer (MT) imaging are well established for tissue characterization in various pathologies individually. However, the effect of suppression of macromolecules on applying MT pulse on signals associated with DW imaging and resulting change in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of water molecules has not been demonstrated previousl...
متن کاملReduction of the Magic Angle Effect on Contrast in Magnetization Transfer Imaging of Human Cartilage
INTRODUCTION In this study of human cartilage, we tested the hypothesis that the magic angle effect is reduced more in MT-weighted images than in T2-weighted images. Articular cartilage has three structural zones distinguished by collagen fiber orientations: superficial zone, transitional zone, and radial zone. When collagen fibers are oriented at 54.7°with respect to the main magnetic field of...

متن کاملMagnetization transfer imaging of the pituitary gland.
Magnetization transfer (MT) techniques provide tissue contrast which depends mainly on the concentration of macromolecules. The magnetization transfer phenomenon is determined by the restricted macromolecular protons and is quantified by the magnetization transfer ratio (MTR). Since many macromolecular structures are implicated in the secretory activity of the pituitary gland, this imaging tech...
