Do we need suspended breathing with real-time axial continuously moving table MR imaging?</I>
A. Zielonka, S. Kinner, M. O. Zenge, M. E. Ladd, S. C. Ladd Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology and Neuroradiology, University Hospital Essen, Essen, Germany Introduction In recent years interest has increased in whole-body magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with continuous table movement. Advantages are that there are no artifacts at the borders of the scan volumes and their tra...
متن کاملHelical MR: continuously moving table axial imaging with radial acquisitions.
A technique for extended field of view MRI is presented. Similar to helical computed tomography, the method utilizes a continuously moving patient table, a 2D axial slice that remains fixed relative to the MRI magnet, and a radial k-space trajectory. A fully refocused SSFP acquisition enables spatial resolution comparable to current clinical protocols in scan times that are sufficiently short t...
متن کاملIntroducing Cinematic Rendering: A Novel Technique for Post-Processing Medical Imaging Data
Since the 1980s, various techniques have been used in the field of medicine for the post-processing of medical imaging data from computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR). They include multiplanar reformations (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP) and Volume Rendering (VR). This paper presents the prototype of a new means of post-processing radiological examinations such as CT an...

Introduction: All of the Imaging modalities have advantages and disadvantages alone. So if we want to have the best and perfect image, combining these modalities produces something we desired. PET-MR images consist of morphologic and metabolic data. MRI and PET provide high spatial and contrast resolution and high sensitivity and molecular information respectively. Hybrid PET-...
متن کاملA Novel Whole Body Diffusion Weighted Imaging Technique with Continuously Moving Table: Preliminary Results
INTRODUCTION Influenced by the successful application of DWI to intracranial diseases, application of multistation DWI to whole-body has been proposed and used clinically for extracranial diseases [1]. However, the clinical impact of wbDWI remains limited due to technical difficulties which are inherent characteristics of multistation approach. As the continuously moving table (CMT) approach ha...
