High-resolution, Anatomically-accurate Diffusion-weighted Imaging of Orbital and Sinonasal Lesions with RESOLVE
Diffusion-weighted imaging is a core sequence in clinical routine imaging for many anatomical regions including the brain, abdomen, breasts, and pelvis [1, 2]. Conventionally, diffusion-weighted imaging is acquired using a single-shot diffusion-weighted echo planar imaging (EPI) sequence with the primary advantages of insensitivity to motion-induced phase errors and relatively short acquisition...
متن کاملSlab scan diffusion imaging.
For maximum robustness of a diffusion-weighted MR imaging sequence, it is desirable to use a single-shot imaging method. This article introduces a new single-shot imaging approach that combines the advantages of multiple spin-echoes with the technique of line scan diffusion imaging. A slab volume, which can be spatially encoded with fewer phase encodes than a regular field of view, is selected ...
متن کاملApparent Diffusion Coefficient Mapping Using a Multi-Shot Spiral MRI Sequence of the Rat Brain
Purpose: Commonly used diffusion weighted (DW) imaging such as DW spin echo (SE) type echo planar imaging (DW-SE-EPI) is known to be a snapshot-like acquisition and to have a relatively high signal-to-noise ratio. Spiral MRI sequence (SPIRAL) has characteristics similar to these of EPI, but it has rarely been used for diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). In vivo DW-SPIRAL of the rat brain has almo...
متن کاملMulti-shot Diffusion-Weighted Split-Echo PROPELLER MRI of the Abdomen
Introduction Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) provides a non-invasive method for in vivo evaluation of tissue water mobility. Most DWI studies employ single-shot DWEPI techniques which can suffer severe artifacts and image distortion in abdominal imaging applications. Multi-shot TSE-based DW-PROPELLER [1] may overcome these limitations. DW-PROPELLER for brain [2] and abdominal [3] imaging has demon...
متن کاملIn vivo diffusion tensor imaging of rat spinal cord with echo planar imaging.
The in vivo apparent diffusion tensor (ADT) of spinal cord was measured in nine rats at 2.0 T using an interleaved multi-shot echo planar imaging (EPI) diffusion sequence. A technique that combines sliding acquisition and phase correction, based on a calibration scan, to reduce ghosting artifacts in the images introduced by the strong diffusion-sensitizing gradients was described. Two rotationa...
