We present a method for recovering time-lapse velocity changes using full waveform inversion (FWI). In a preprocessing step we invert for a single intermediate model by simultaneously minimizing the data misfit in the baseline and the monitor surveys. We record the individual FWI gradients corresponding to the baseline and the monitor datasets at each iteration of the inversion. Regions where t...

Brain T1 mapping has important clinical applications in detecting brain disorders. Conventional T1 mapping techniques are usually based on inversion recovery spin echo (IRSE) imaging or its more time-efficient counterpart inversion recovery fast spin echo (IRFSE) imaging because they can deliver good image quality. Multiple inversion times are required to accurately estimate T1 over a wide rang...

PURPOSE To test a newly developed fat suppression magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) prepulse that synergistically uses the principles of fat suppression via inversion recovery (STIR) and spectral fat saturation (CHESS), relative to pure CHESS and STIR. This new technique is termed dual fat suppression (Dual-FS). MATERIALS AND METHODS To determine if Dual-FS could be chemically specific for fat...
