Quiet echo planar imaging for functional and diffusion MRI
PURPOSE To develop a purpose-built quiet echo planar imaging capability for fetal functional and diffusion scans, for which acoustic considerations often compromise efficiency and resolution as well as angular/temporal coverage. METHODS The gradient waveforms in multiband-accelerated single-shot echo planar imaging sequences have been redesigned to minimize spectral content. This includes a s...
متن کاملImproving diffusion MRI using simultaneous multi-slice echo planar imaging
In diffusion MRI, simultaneous multi-slice single-shot EPI acquisitions have the potential to increase the number of diffusion directions obtained per unit time, allowing more diffusion encoding in high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) acquisitions. Nonetheless, unaliasing simultaneously acquired, closely spaced slices with parallel imaging methods can be difficult, leading to high ...
متن کاملFunctional MRI using sensitivity-encoded echo planar imaging (SENSE-EPI).
Parallel imaging methods become increasingly available on clinical MR scanners. To investigate the potential of sensitivity-encoded single-shot EPI (SENSE-EPI) for functional MRI, five imaging protocols at different SENSE reduction factors (R) and matrix sizes were compared with respect to their noise characteristics and their sensitivity toward functional activation in a motor task examination...
متن کاملEcho-Planar Cardiac MRI using Parallel Imaging
Since it’s original proposal by Mansfield et al. in 1977 [1], echo-planar imaging (EPI) has had a key role in the evolution of cardiac MRI. EPI involves the rapid acqusition of k-space data in a raster-like fashion, requiring a fewer number of excitations compared to conventional 2DFT imaging. This is crucial in cardiac imaging as respiratory and cardiac motion places high demands on imaging sp...
متن کاملIntensity-Corrected Dual-Echo Echo-Planar Imaging (DE-EPI) for Improved Pediatric Brain Diffusion Imaging
Here we investigate the utility of a dual-echo Echo-Planar Imaging (DE-EPI) Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) approach to improve lesion conspicuity in pediatric imaging. This method delivers two 'echo images' for one diffusion-preparation period. We also demonstrate how the echoes can be utilized to remove transmit/receive coil-induced and static magnetic field intensity modulations on both ech...
