Cardiac MR fingerprinting for T1 and T2 mapping in four heartbeats
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background MR Fingerprinting (MRF) (Ma et al, Nature, 2013) can potentially achieve shorter scan times than conventional mapping by exploiting flexible sequence parameters. Cardiac MRF has been reported for single-slice mapping of T1 and T2 in sixteen heartbeats (Hamilton et al, Proc ISMRM, 2015). Here the scan duration is reduced to four heartbeats using an iterative multi-scale denoising pattern recognition (Pierre et al, Magn Reson Med, 2015).

Myocardial T1 and T2 mappings with automatic motion correction at 3 Tesla MR: comparison of T1 and T2 measurements by breathhold, free-breathing and cardiac cycle
Methods Myocardial T1 and T2 mapping at 3 Tesla MR was obtained from 24 healthy volunteers (16 males and 8 females, mean age, 31±4 years). Shortened modified looklocker inversion recovery was used for T1 mapping and T2-prepared single-shot steady-state free precession was utilized for T2 mapping. Automatic motion correction was done by an elastic registration algorithm based on estimating motio...
متن کاملAccelerated parameter mapping with compressed sensing: an alternative to MR fingerprinting
We introduce a method for MR parameter mapping based on three concepts: 1) an inversion recovery, variable flip angle acquisition strategy designed for speed, signal, and contrast; 2) a compressed sensing reconstruction which exploits spatiotemporal correlations through low rank regularization; and 3) a model-based optimization to simultaneously estimate proton density, T1, and T2 values from t...

PURPOSE We aimed to use a noninvasive method for quantifying T1 values of chronic myocardial infarction scar by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and determine its diagnostic performance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed cardiac MRI on 29 consecutive patients with known coronary artery disease (CAD) on 3.0 Tesla MRI scanner. An unenhanced T1 mapping technique was used to calculate T...

متن کاملSimultaneous three-dimensional myocardial T1 and T2 mapping in one breath hold with 3D-QALAS
BACKGROUND Quantification of the longitudinal- and transverse relaxation time in the myocardium has shown to provide important information in cardiac diagnostics. Methods for cardiac relaxation time mapping generally demand a long breath hold to measure either T1 or T2 in a single 2D slice. In this paper we present and evaluate a novel method for 3D interleaved T1 and T2 mapping of the whole le...
