Intravascular 3.0T MR Imaging: A feasibility Study in Swine
Introduction: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a useful imaging tool for visualization of vessel walls and characterization of atherosclerotic lesions, providing high resolution and multiple imaging planes with no risk of radiation. The use of MR technology is, however, limited in imaging of deep-seated arteries, primarily due to insufficient signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) with a surface coil. ...
متن کاملA Feasibility Study of an Intravascular Imaging Antenna to Image Atherosclerotic Plaques in Swine Using 3.0 T MRI
PURPOSE To investigate the feasibility of an intravascular imaging antenna to image abdominal aorta atherosclerotic plaque in swine using 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS Atherosclerotic model was established in 6 swine. After 8 months, swine underwent an MR examination, which was performed using an intravascular imaging guide-wire, and images of the common iliac artery and the ...
متن کاملIntracoronary 3.0T MRI: An ex vivo feasibility study in swine hearts
PURPOSE: MRI is becoming a useful imaging tool for the diagnosis and treatment atherosclerotic coronary arteries. To date, there are no reports on intracoronary MRI using a clinical 3.0T MRI scanner, which requires the placement of a small sized (usually 0.014-inch in diameter) endovascular MR coil into the coronary arteries. In this study, we attempted to confirm, ex vivo, the possibility of g...

Substantial progress has been made in the imaging of prostate cancer in MR imaging, as well as in advanced...
متن کاملMR imaging of the prostate at 3.0T with external phased array coil - preliminary results.
INTRODUCTION Among all imaging modalities, MRI of the prostate has the highest sensitivity to predict extracapsular tumor spread, seems to have added value for the preoperative treatment planning. It is an adjunct tool in patients with high suspicion of prostate cancer and so far negative TRUS-guided biopsies. Due to the higher intrinsic signal, it is expected that 3.0T enables to image the pro...
