An improved method for MRI artifact correction due to translational motion in the imaging plane
نویسندگان
چکیده
A computer postprocessing technique is developed to remove MRI artifact arising from unknown translational motion in the imaging plane. Based on previous artifact correction methods, the improved technique uses two successive steps to reduce read out and phase-encoding direction artifacts: First, the spectrum shift method is applied to remove read-out axis translational motion. Then, the phase retrieval method is employed to eliminate the remaining subpixel motion of the read-out axis and the entire motion of the phase-encoding axis. In the presence of noise, to protect edge detection (in the spectrum shift method), two high-density gray-level markers are added, one to each side of the imaging object. Experimental results with an actual MR scan confirmed the ability of the method to correct the artifact of an MR image caused by unknown translational motion in the imaging plane.

Cancellation due to Rigid Motion in the Imaging Plane 1 Reza
A post-processing technique has been developed to suppress the MRI artifact arising from object planar rigid motion. In 2-DFT MRI, rotational and translational motions of the target during MR scan respectively impose non-uniform sampling and a phase error on the collected MRI signal. The artifact correction method introduced considers the following three conditions: (i) For planar rigid motion ...

Introduction: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was introduced and became more common based on its low cost, fast image procedure rate and low radiation dose compared to CT. This imaging modality improved diagnostic and treatment-planning procedures by providing three-dimensional information with greatly reduced level of radiation dose compared to 2D dental imaging modalitie...

Arterial Spin Labelling (ASL) is a perfusion MRI technique with tremendous applications in the study of biological markers and prognostic factors of brain tumors and in the assessment of neural diseases; moreover, it is completely non-invasive as it uses the magnetically inverted blood of the patient as an endogenous tracer. Unfortunately this powerful method is only viable in very limited cond...

Introduction: Metallic artifacts due to pacemaker/ implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) leads in CT images can produce artifactual uptake in cardiac SPECT/CT images. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of the metallic artifacts due to pacemaker and ICD leads on myocardial SPECT/CT imaging. Methods: The study included 9 patients wh...

Corruption of the image time series due to interimage head motion limits the clinical utility of functional MRI. This paper presents a method for real-time prospective correction of rotation and translation in all six degrees of rigid body motion. By incorporating an orbital navigator (ONAV) echo for each of the sagittal, axial, and coronal planes into the fMRI pulse sequence, rotation and tran...
