SEMAC: Slice Encoding for Metal Artifact Correction in MRI.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) near metallic implants remains an unmet need because of severe artifacts, which mainly stem from large metal-induced field inhomogeneities. This work addresses MRI near metallic implants with an innovative imaging technique called "Slice Encoding for Metal Artifact Correction" (SEMAC). The SEMAC technique corrects metal artifacts via robust encoding of each exci...
متن کاملFat-suppressed MR Imaging of the Spine for Metal Artifact Reduction at 3T: Comparison of STIR and Slice Encoding for Metal Artifact Correction Fat-suppressed T2-weighted Images
PURPOSE To compare short tau inversion recovery (STIR) images with slice encoding for metal artifact correction (SEMAC)-corrected magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of spectral presaturation with inversion recovery (SPIR) or inversion recovery (IR) at 3T in patients with metallic spinal instrumentation. METHODS Following institutional review board's approval, 71 vertebrae with interbody fixatio...
متن کاملNoise Reduction in Slice Encoding for Metal Artifact Correction Using Singular Value Decomposition
Introduction: MRI near metallic implants is often limited by severe artifacts. To obtain distortion-free MR images near metallic implants, SEMAC (slice encoding for metal artifact correction) [1] extends a view-angle-titling (VAT) [2] spin echo sequence with additional z phase encoding to resolve metal artifacts. Figure 1 illustrates that metal artifacts are corrected by combining the 3D data r...
متن کاملAccelerated slice encoding for metal artifact correction.
PURPOSE To demonstrate accelerated imaging with both artifact reduction and different contrast mechanisms near metallic implants. MATERIALS AND METHODS Slice-encoding for metal artifact correction (SEMAC) is a modified spin echo sequence that uses view-angle tilting and slice-direction phase encoding to correct both in-plane and through-plane artifacts. Standard spin echo trains and short-TI ...
متن کاملOptimization of Scan Time in MRI for Total Hip Prostheses: SEMAC Tailoring for Prosthetic Implants Containing Different Types of Metals.
INTRODUCTION Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of soft tissues after total hip arthroplasty is of clinical interest for the diagnosis of various pathologies that are usually invisible with other imaging modalities. As a result, considerable effort has been put into the development of metal artifact reduction MRI strategies, such as slice encoding for metal artifact correction (SEMAC). Generally,...
