Spectral Estimation of Printed Colors Using a Scanner, Conventional Color Filters and applying backpropagation Neural Network
Reconstruction the spectral data of color samples using conventional color devices such as a digital camera or scanner is always of interest. Nowadays, multispectral imaging has introduced a feasible method to estimate the spectral reflectance of the images utilizing more than three-channel imaging. The goal of this study is to spectrally characterize a color scanner using a set of conventional...
متن کاملReduced field-of-view excitation using second-order gradients and spatial-spectral radiofrequency pulses.
The performance of multidimensional spatially selective radiofrequency (RF) pulses is often limited by their long duration. In this article, high-order, nonlinear gradients are exploited to reduce multidimensional RF pulse length. Specifically, by leveraging the multidimensional spatial dependence of second-order gradients, a two-dimensional spatial-spectral RF pulse is designed to achieve thre...
متن کاملLactate Detection Using Double Quantum Coherence Filtering with Spectral-Spatial Refocusing RF Pulses in a PRESS Sequence
Introduction: Double-quantum coherence filtering (DQF) with PRESS localization has been used for spectral editing in MRS [1]. Previous studies have shown that DQF with PRESS can selectively detect signals from metabolites such as lactate. However, these techniques face several challenges [2]. For example, chemical shifts among different metabolites can result in spatial mismatch of the slice-se...
متن کاملA Novel 8-Channel Transceive Volume-Array for a 9.4T Animal Scanner
Introduction This work focuses on the design of a novel 8-element TX/RX volume-array for high field animal MRI. The magnetic field strength of current small animal MRI systems is increasing in search of higher SNR and spectral resolution [1]. Along with the move to higher field strengths, RF coil design for small-animal MRI is advancing concurrently [2]. At ultra high field strengths, however, ...
متن کاملSelf-refocused spatial-spectral pulse for positive contrast imaging of cells labeled with SPIO nanoparticles.
MRI has been used extensively to noninvasively track the location of cells labeled with superparamagnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles (SPIOs) in vivo. Typically, SPIOs are employed as a negative contrast agent which makes it difficult to differentiate labeled cells from extraneous sources of inhomogeneity and actual voids in the image. As a result, several novel approaches have been put forth to o...
