Concentric rings K-space trajectory for hyperpolarized (13)C MR spectroscopic imaging.
PURPOSE To develop a robust and rapid imaging technique for hyperpolarized (13)C MR Spectroscopic Imaging and investigate its performance. METHODS A concentric rings readout trajectory with constant angular velocity is proposed for hyperpolarized (13)C spectroscopic imaging and its properties are analyzed. Quantitative analyses of design tradeoffs are presented for several imaging scenarios. ...
متن کاملFast 3D SSFP Imaging Using a Concentric Cylinders Trajectory
Introduction: A 2D concentric rings trajectory is inherently centric-ordered, provides a smooth weighting in k-space, and enables shorter scan times [1]. Due to these properties, it is well-suited for magnetizationprepared imaging. Extensions of this trajectory for 3D imaging include: 3D stack-of-rings [2] and 3D interleaved concentric cylinders [3,4]. 3D stack-of-rings trajectory directly inhe...
متن کاملMR Spectroscopic Imaging Using a Concentric Rings Trajectory
Introduction: MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) provides invaluable information regarding in vivo metabolic processes to aid in clinical diagnosis. However, long scan times are required to resolve both the spatial and spectral dimensions. Fast imaging trajectories, such as EPI [1] and spiral [2], can encode multiple dimensions at once, providing a reduction in scan time compared to conventional M...
متن کاملFat/water separation using a concentric rings trajectory.
The concentric rings two-dimensional (2D) k-space trajectory enables flexible trade-offs between image contrast, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), spatial resolution, and scan time. However, to realize these benefits for in vivo imaging applications, a robust method is desired to deal with fat signal in the acquired data. Multipoint Dixon techniques have been shown to achieve uniform fat suppression...
متن کاملFast dynamic 3D MR spectroscopic imaging with compressed sensing and multiband excitation pulses for hyperpolarized 13C studies.
Hyperpolarized 13C MR spectroscopic imaging can detect not only the uptake of the pre-polarized molecule but also its metabolic products in vivo, thus providing a powerful new method to study cellular metabolism. Imaging the dynamic perfusion and conversion of these metabolites provides additional tissue information but requires methods for efficient hyperpolarization usage and rapid acquisitio...
