Optimal waveform design for array imaging
We introduce and analyze several algorithms for optimal illumination in array imaging. We consider time reversal and Kirchhoff migration imaging in homogeneous media, in regimes where the signal-to-noise ratio is high (infinite). Extensions to coherent interferometric imaging in clutter are described briefly. We show with numerical simulations that the optimal illumination algorithms image sele...
متن کاملRapid phase contrast MRI with minimum time gradient waveform design using convex optimization
Background Phase contrast MRI (PC-MRI) sequences conventionally use triangular and trapezoidal gradient waveforms to construct flow compensated and flow encoded (FCFE) [1] or Bipolar [2] velocity encoding gradients. This approach does not make optimal use of the available gradient hardware for all time points, but convex optimization (CVX) can be used to design minimum-duration, arbitrarily sha...
متن کاملMinimum-Time Multi-Dimensional Gradient Waveform Design using Convex Optimization
Rapid sequences demand very efficient use of gradient strength and slew-rate. We present a general method of designing multi-dimensional, minimum-time waveforms, particularly preparatory and rewinder gradients, using standard optimization techniques. This method is easily adapted to design gradients subject to constraints on endpoints, gradient moments, amplitude and slew rate , and is fast eno...
متن کاملRapid gradient-echo imaging.
Gradient-echo sequences are widely used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for numerous applications ranging from angiography to perfusion to functional MRI. Compared with spin-echo techniques, the very short repetition times of gradient-echo methods enable very rapid 2D and 3D imaging, but also lead to complicated "steady states." Signal and contrast behavior can be described graphically and ...
متن کاملGradient waveform design for variable density sampling in Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Fast coverage of k-space is a major concern to speed up data acquisition in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and limit image distortions due to long echo train durations. The hardware gradient constraints (magnitude, slew rate) must be taken into account to collect a sufficient amount of samples in a minimal amount of time. However, sampling strategies (e.g., Compressed Sensing) and optimal gra...
