Magnetization transfer from inhomogeneously broadened lines (ihMT): Experimental optimization of saturation parameters for human brain imaging at 1.5 Tesla.
PURPOSE Recently a new MR endogenous contrast mechanism was reported. It allows specifically imaging the magnetization transfer (MT) effect arising from inhomogeneously broadened components of the NMR spectrum, and was hence dubbed ihMT. Such unique NMR lineshape properties are presumably occurring in myelin because of its specifically ordered, multilayered sheath structure. Here, optimization ...
متن کاملMagnetization transfer from inhomogeneously broadened lines: A potential marker for myelin.
PURPOSE To characterize a new approach to magnetization transfer (MT) imaging with improved specificity for myelinated tissues relative to conventional MT. METHODS Magnetization transfer preparation sequences were implemented with all radiofrequency power centered on a single frequency and also with power evenly divided between positive and negative frequencies. Dual frequency saturation was ...
متن کاملAssessment of increase in citrate and KCl consumption and probable underlying mechanisms in morphine-dependent socially isolated rats
Introduction: Abusing drugs such as morphine continues to be a serious medical and social problem. Defining a habit that increases the devastating effect such as compulsive use and craving is necessary. Methods: This experiment was designed in four groups 1) group-housed (GH) 2) isolation 3) group-housed morphine-treated (GHMT) (4) isolated-housed morphine-treated (IHMT). Rats were received mor...
متن کاملMR Spin Behavior During RF Pulses: T2 vs. T2' Relaxation
Introduction: We investigate the behavior of the MR magnetization vector during RF pulses in the presence of rapid transverse relaxation. The transverse relaxation is divided into two separate mechanisms: Homogeneously broadened lines which resulting in irreversible T2 amplitude decay, and inhomogeneously broadened lines resulting in dephasing and in principle refocusable T2’. While the two dif...
متن کاملBayesian Tree-Structured Image Modeling
Wavelet-domain hidden Markov models have proven to be useful tools for statistical signal and image processing. The hidden Markov tree (HMT) model captures the key features of the joint statistics of the wavelet coeÆcients of real-world data. One potential drawback to the HMT framework is the need for computationally expensive iterative training (using the EM algorithm, for example). In this pa...
