چکیده
Figure 3: The use of the two-step approach for 3-pt waterfat separation with a bipolar acquisition. Water images from phase-sensitive IDEAL processing (a) and the two-step approach (b). A linear phase correction was applied before IDEAL in both cases. The residual fat signal in (a) (arrows) is due to the uncorrected higher order eddy currents that are resolved using the two-step approach (b). (a) (b) Figure 1: Flow diagram of the 2-step approach.

Comparison of magnitude and complex data fitting for quantitative water/fat imaging
INTRODUCTION Magnitude fitting has been proposed as an alternative to complex data fitting for quantitative chemical shift-encoded water/fat imaging. Advantages of magnitude fitting include the removal of sensitivity to phase errors in the signal (e.g., caused by eddy currents) [1] and suppression of B0 field inhomogeneity effects (i.e., removal of one nonlinear parameter from the signal model)...
متن کاملAddressing phase errors in fat-water imaging using a mixed magnitude/complex fitting method.
Accurate, noninvasive measurements of liver fat content are needed for the early diagnosis and quantitative staging of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Chemical shift-based fat quantification methods acquire images at multiple echo times using a multiecho spoiled gradient echo sequence, and provide fat fraction measurements through postprocessing. However, phase errors, such as those caused by...
متن کاملFat/Water Separation in a Single MRI Image with Arbitrary Phase Shift
Signal from fat is normally removed from MR images either by fat separation techniques that distinguish water from fat signal after the data has been received, or by fat suppression techniques that prevent the fat signal from being received. Most approaches to fat separation are variations on Dixon imaging. The primary downside to Dixon imaging is the requirement for multiple images with statio...
متن کاملIDEAL Fat Image in Bone Marrow: Comparison of Metastatic Neoplasm and Benign Marrow Abnormalities
Introduction: MRI is superior to other imaging modalities in evaluating bone marrow because it is remarkably sensitive in detecting lipid; therefore, MRI can be used to detect processes that alter the relative amounts of fat and water in bone marrow [1]. In-phase–opposed-phase technique may also be useful for differentiating benign from neoplastic processes within bone marrow by detecting small...
متن کاملRobust Multicoil Reconstruction for Phase-Sensitive Fat-Water Separation
Introduction: Phase-sensitive (PS) SSFP [1,2] is an efficient fat/water separation method, successfully used in several applications including angiography [1], musculoskeletal [3] and abdominal [4] imaging. It generates and detects a 180 phase-difference between fat and water. In previous work, water images reconstructed from individual coils with PSSSFP were combined [4,5]. However, abrupt spa...
