Water- and fat-suppressed proton projection MRI (WASPI) of rat femur bone.
Investigators often study rats by microCT to investigate the pathogenesis and treatment of skeletal disorders in humans. However, microCT measurements provide information only on bone mineral content and not the solid matrix. CT scans are often carried out on cancellous bone, which contains a significant volume of marrow cells, stroma, water, and fat, and thus the apparent bone mineral density ...
متن کاملStandardized phantoms for quantitative cardiac MRI
Background Quantitative MR relaxometry techniques are increasingly used in cardiac MR applications, e.g. MOLLI for high resolution T1 mapping. To use these techniques in the clinic, we must understand how to make comparable measurements across vendor systems and software versions and compare results across sites. A standardized phantom used for regular quality control is one approach. The Bioma...
متن کامل3D Profile Measurement by Color Pattern Projection and System Calibration
In this paper, we present a new color structured lighting for 3D profile measurement by projecting a pattern of color stripes. The advantage of using color pattern is that it simplifies the difficult matching problem of using a multiple-line stripe pattern. The problem of finding the correct color stripe correspondence between light source and images is solved by accurately calibrating the syst...
متن کاملEstimating of hepatic fat amount using MRI proton density fat fraction in a real practice setting
The recently developed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) proton density fat fraction (PDFF) allows measurement of the fat in all segments of hepatic tissue. However, it is time consuming and inconvenient to measure each segment repeatedly. Moreover, volume of each segment also should be adjusted with arithmetic mean of the selected segments when total amount of liver fat is estimated. Therefore,...
