Chemical shift MR imaging methods for the quantification of transcatheter lipiodol delivery to the liver: preclinical feasibility studies in a rodent model.
PURPOSE To demonstrate the feasibility of using chemical shift magnetic resonance (MR) imaging fat-water separation methods for quantitative estimation of transcatheter lipiodol delivery to liver tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS Studies were performed in accordance with institutional Animal Care and Use Committee guidelines. Proton nuclear MR spectroscopy was first performed to identify lipiodo...
متن کاملQuantification of Chemical-shift Apparent Diffusion Coefficients (ADC) of Fat and Water Signals Using Interleaved EPI based IDEAL Method and Multiplexed Parallel Image Reconstruction: Application to studies of parotid glands
Target Audience: Researchers and clinicians who are interested in chemical-shift ADC mapping of fat and water signals Purpose: Quantification of chemical-shift apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) of fat and water is very important for studies of many physiological systems such as liver and parotid glands. Although the ADC mapping of parotid glands can be performed with DW-PROPLELLER-FSE imagi...
متن کاملAnalytical determination of the chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) contrast in molecular magnetic resonance imaging
Magnetic resonance based on molecular imaging allows tracing contrast agents thereby facilitating early diagnosis of diseases in a non-invasive fashion that enhances the soft tissue with high spatial resolution. Recently, the exchange of protons between the contrast agent and water, known as the chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) effect, has been measured by applying a suitable pulse ...
متن کاملFat-suppression techniques for 3-T MR imaging of the musculoskeletal system.
Fat suppression is an important technique in musculoskeletal imaging to improve the visibility of bone-marrow lesions; evaluate fat in soft-tissue masses; optimize the contrast-to-noise ratio in magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography; better define lesions after administration of contrast material; and avoid chemical shift artifacts, primarily at 3-T MR imaging. High-field-strength (eg, 3-T) MR i...
متن کاملSpiral water-fat imaging with integrated off-resonance correction on a clinical scanner.
PURPOSE To integrate water-fat-resolved spiral gradient-echo imaging with off-resonance correction into a clinical MR scanner and to evaluate its basic feasibility and performance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three-point chemical shift imaging was implemented with forward and strongly T(2)*-weighted reverse spiral sampling and with off-resonance correction after water-fat separation. It was applied...
