Abstract This paper applies a new approach to the identification of discourses, based on Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), study discourse variation over time. The MCA keywords deals with major issue use identify discourses: allocation individual multiple discourses. Yet, as this demonstrates, also allows us observe in prevalence discourses texts patterns keyword co-occurrence. Metadata c...

INSERM UMR1101, LaTIM, Brest, France Respiratory motion in PET/MR imaging leads to reduced quantitative and qualitative image accuracy. Correction methodologies include the use of respiratory synchronized gated frames which lead to low signal to noise ratio (SNR) given that each frame contains only part of the count available throughout an average PET acquisition. In this work, 4D MRI extracted...

Patient motion during myocardial SPECT profusion imaging may result in the formation of artifacts in the reconstructed images. This study attempts to present a method on the basis of modeling image frames through optimum-degree polynomial curves and fitting 2D curves to detect and correct heart motion at pixel and subpixel accuracy. To evaluate our method, NCAT phantom was shifted during data a...

UNLABELLED Several studies have described nonuniform blurring of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) due to respiration. This article describes a technique for correcting the respiration effect and assesses its effectiveness in clinical studies. METHODS Simulated phantoms, physical phantoms, and patient scans were used in this study. A heart phantom, which oscillated back and forth, was used t...

Authors are requested to select key words from the following list. You may use plurals and adjectives for combinations like absolute pupillary response, centrifugal optic nerve, inter blobs, etc. If key words are needed which do not appear in this list, please underline them. For animal classification the Latin nomenclature should be used. p-mechanism A-scan a-wave aberration absolute absorptio...

Introduction Recent developments in partially parallel imaging (PPI) techniques provide new opportunities for motion artifact reduction [1-2]. One PPI technique that exhibits great potentials in many motion detection and correction scenarios is the GRAPPA operator [3], as the GRAPPA kernels can be flexibly positioned for k-space interpolation and extrapolation in any direction. This work propos...

Background Diffusion cardiac imaging has been challenging due to respiratory and heart motion. Recent developments in cardiac diffusion imaging proposed more robust spin echoes encoding scheme, like Acceleration Motion Correction(AMC)(1), to tackle cardiac motion. In addition, free breathing acquisition with prospective motion correction like slice following technique (2) has been shown to redu...

Background Coronary arteries remain challenging structures to image using MRI due to the small size, tortuous course, and continual motion. Current high-resolution whole-heart techniques use prospective ECG-triggering and navigator gating to suppress cardiac and respiratory motion artifacts, respectively. However, these motion suppression strategies only accept data acquired within a narrow win...
