Real-time imaging of the temporomanibular joint motion based on golden ratio radial MRI
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: The motion and the anatomy of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is very complex. Static or pseudo-dynamic MRI of the TMJ does not allow for full analysis of the disc deformation and displacement during the mandibular motion. The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate a fast dynamic MRI technique for measurement of the TMJ with an arbitrary reconstruction window time point and width.

Magnetic resonance imaging in real time: advances using radial FLASH.
PURPOSE To develop technical advances for real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that allow for improved image quality and high frame rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS The approach is based on a combination of fast low-angle shot (FLASH) MRI sequences with radial data sampling and view sharing of successive acquisitions. Gridding reconstructions provide images free from streaking or motion art...

PURPOSE To develop a fast and flexible free-breathing dynamic volumetric MRI technique, iterative Golden-angle RAdial Sparse Parallel MRI (iGRASP), that combines compressed sensing, parallel imaging, and golden-angle radial sampling. METHODS Radial k-space data are acquired continuously using the golden-angle scheme and sorted into time series by grouping an arbitrary number of consecutive sp...

Cardiac function has traditionally been evaluated using breath-hold cine acquisitions. However, there is a great need for free breathing techniques in patients who have difficulty in holding their breath. Real-time cardiac MRI is a valuable alternative to the traditional breath-hold imaging approach, but the real-time images are often inferior in spatial and temporal resolution. This article pr...

Periacetabular osteotomy is an accepted surgical procedure to reorient the acetabulum in patients with hip symptoms of mechanical overload, impingement or femoral head instability. For both diagnosis and surgical planning, an accurate estimate of hip joint bone motion is required. Orthopedists can use animated 3D models, prior to joint surgery, to evaluate their task and generally to reduce the...

In speech research using real-time magnetic resonance imaging (RT-MRI), frame reconstruction is typically performed with a constant temporal resolution. However, a flexible selection of temporal resolution is desirable because of natural variations in speaking rate and variations in the speed of different articulators. In this work, a novel spiral golden-ratio temporal view order was applied to...
