Dataset-independent reconstruction of high angular resolution diffusion sampling schemes by generalized q-space imaging

چکیده
We propose a novel q-space imaging method called generalized q-space imaging (GQI), which is derived from the Fourier transform relationship between the MR signals and underlying diffusion displacement [1]. The method is characterized by being independent of the q-space sampling schemes, enabling us to use either q-ball imaging (QBI) [2] or diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) dataset [3]. The accuracy of the proposed method is examined under the comparison with spherical harmonics based QBI and DS

Estimation of fiber orientation and spin density distribution by diffusion deconvolution
A diffusion deconvolution method is proposed to apply deconvolution to the diffusion orientation distribution function (dODF) and calculate the fiber orientation distribution function (fODF), which is defined as the orientation distribution of the fiber spin density. The dODF can be obtained from q-space imaging methods such as q-ball imaging (QBI), diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI), and general...

PURPOSE To accelerate the acquisition of simultaneously high spatial and angular resolution diffusion imaging. METHODS Accelerated imaging is achieved by recovering the diffusion signal at all voxels simultaneously from under-sampled k-q space data using a compressed sensing algorithm. The diffusion signal at each voxel is modeled as a sparse complex Gaussian mixture model. The joint recovery...
متن کاملPractical crossing fiber imaging with combined DTI datasets and generalized reconstruction algorithm
We present a clinically feasible imaging scheme that combines two DTI datasets to obtain a high angular resolution reconstruction of crossing fibers. The scheme was designed based on a paradigm that sampled q-space points with equally distributed q-space interval, similar to the approach of diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) [1] and hybrid diffusion imaging [2]. The obtained images were reconstru...
متن کاملDesign of multishell sampling schemes with uniform coverage in diffusion MRI.
PURPOSE In diffusion MRI, a technique known as diffusion spectrum imaging reconstructs the propagator with a discrete Fourier transform, from a Cartesian sampling of the diffusion signal. Alternatively, it is possible to directly reconstruct the orientation distribution function in q-ball imaging, providing so-called high angular resolution diffusion imaging. In between these two techniques, ac...
متن کاملSparse Solution of Fiber Orientation Distribution Function by Diffusion Decomposition
Fiber orientation is the key information in diffusion tractography. Several deconvolution methods have been proposed to obtain fiber orientations by estimating a fiber orientation distribution function (ODF). However, the L 2 regularization used in deconvolution often leads to false fibers that compromise the specificity of the results. To address this problem, we propose a method called diffus...
