T_2 Weighted Turbo SE Using Respiratory Triggering

Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted MR imaging of the liver using respiratory-cardiac double triggering

To investigate the influence of respiratory-cardiac double triggering (RCT) on intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for the liver, twelve healthy volunteers underwent liver DWI twice respectively with respiratory triggering (RT) and RCT schemes. Signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of the images, values, repeatability (evaluating with within-subject coefficient of varia...

Phase navigator for respiratory triggering

Introduction: Respiratory triggering is a technique that reduces motion artifacts by synchronizing the measurement with the breathing cycle of the patient and by placing the data acquisition period into the relatively quiet end expiration phase [1]. The physiological signal needed by the trigger algorithm can be derived from the motion of the abdominal wall with a pneumatic sensor or by measuri...

Performance of Turbo-SISO, Turbo-SIMO, Turbo-MISO and Turbo-MIMO system using STBC

In this paper, performance of a Turbo coded wireless link is evaluated in the presence of Rayleigh fading for single-input single-output (SISO), single-input multipleoutput(SIMO), multiple-input single-output (MISO) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Turbo encoded and 64-ary Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) modulated data are further encoded using spacetime block coding (STB...

Effective Performance of Respiratory Triggering T2-weighted Imaging with Motion Correction in the Liver at 3T MRI

Turbo spin-echo diffusion-weighted MR of ischemic stroke.

PURPOSE Our objective was to determine whether a multisection technique, diffusion-weighted half-Fourier single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) imaging, can compensate for the drawbacks common to other diffusion-weighted techniques; specifically, the need for echo-planar technology and the presence of susceptibility artifacts in areas close to the skull base. METHODS Forty subjects who were refe...
