Water/Fat Separation MR Improves Optical Breast Imaging MR Water/Fat Separation Improves Optical Breast Imaging
Background Optical imaging may be added to MR mammography to provide absolute concentration images of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin, water, and other endogenous and exogenous molecular agents. This is beneficial because hemoglobin and tissue oxygenation have been shown in several studies to have high specificity to breast cancer [1]. This combined optical/MR instrument has been shown t...
متن کاملRegularized iterative reconstruction for undersampled BLADE and its applications in three-point Dixon water-fat separation.
In MRI, the suppression of fat signal is very important for many applications. Multipoint Dixon based water-fat separation methods are commonly used due to its robustness to B(0) homogeneity compared with other fat suppression methods, such as spectral fat saturation. The traditional Cartesian k-space trajectory based multipoint Dixon technique is sensitive to motion, such as pulsatile blood fl...
متن کاملWater Fat Separation with Undersampled TSE BLADE Based on Three Point Dixon
Introduction In the three-point Dixon water fat separation method, one in-phase echo and two out-of-phase echoes are sampled in Cartesian k-space trajectory conventionally [1][2]. The Cartesian sampling is sensitive to motions, such as from pulsation and flow, which cause artifacts degrading the image quality. To address this problem, a non Cartesian sampling method, TSE BLADE three-point Dixon...
متن کاملThree Echo Dixon Water-Fat Separation for Cardiac Black Blood Turbo Spin Echo Imaging
Introduction Turbo spin echo (TSE) sequences with black blood preparation pulses are an important component of cardiac MRI. It is commonly used for tissue characterization and anatomical assessment of the myocardium, e.g. for edema imaging aiming at the differentiation of acute from chronic myocardial infarction. TSE benefits from high SNR and the availability of good T1 or T2 weighting. So far...
متن کاملThree dimensional phase sensitive reconstruction for water/fat separation in MR imaging using inverse gradient
INTRODUCTION: Inand out-of-phase imaging is a useful tool in quantitative imaging of fat. Several approaches have been implemented to improve the original two point Dixon method [1], often by introducing an extra point to increase the reliability of the reconstruction hence increasing scan time. Recent papers have shown promising results with two point protocols [2,3] although in our experience...
