Book Motion Correction in MR

Download or read book Motion Correction in MR written by Andre van der Kouwe and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motion Correction in MR: Correction of Position, Motion, and Dynamic Changes, Volume Eight provides a comprehensive survey of the state-of-the-art in motion detection and correction in magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The book describes the problem of correctly and consistently identifying and positioning the organ of interest and tracking it throughout the scan. The basic principles of how image artefacts arise because of position changes during scanning are described, along with retrospective and prospective techniques for eliminating these artefacts, including classical approaches and methods using machine learning. Internal navigator-based approaches as well as external systems for estimating motion are also presented, along with practical applications in each organ system and each MR modality covered. This book provides a technical basis for physicists and engineers to develop motion correction methods, giving guidance to technologists and radiologists for incorporating these methods in patient examinations. Provides approaches for correcting scans prospectively and retrospectively Shows how motion and secondary effects such as field changes manifest in MR scans as artifacts and subtle biases in quantitative research Gives methods for measuring motion and associated field changes, quantifying motion and judging the accuracy of the motion and field estimates

Book Detection and Correction of Patient Motion in Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Download or read book Detection and Correction of Patient Motion in Magnetic Resonance Imaging written by Murat Aksoy and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the sequential nature of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data acquisition, correction of image artifacts originating from involuntary patient motion is essential for reliable diagnostic quality. Especially during MRI scans of certain patient populations such as children, elderly or patients with certain medical conditions (e.g. stroke, Parkinson's), motion correction methods must be incorporated into the MR imaging protocol for adequate image quality. With increased demands for higher resolution or time-resolved examinations (e.g. functional MRI), examination times also increase and even willing patients might have trouble staying still during the course of the examination. The first part of this thesis provides a method for retrospective correction of head motion artifacts using a multi-shot spiral-in \ & out readout and parallel-imaging based iterative image reconstruction. The spiral-in part provided a low resolution image that was used for measurement of head motion. Due to rotational motion, locally undersampled areas appear in MR acquisition space (i.e., k-space), which violate the Nyquist theorem and cause artifacts even after motion correction. These artifacts were addressed through the data redundancy provided by multiple receiver channels that is present in modern receiver coils and an iterative conjugate-gradient based reconstruction. This method was then applied to diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) with multi-shot readout. Since DTI uses directional gradients to encode diffusion, rotational motion causes the image contrast to change, and it becomes incorrect to combine data with varying diffusion encodings on them. To address this issue, a non-linear conjugate gradient based reconstruction is presented and it is shown that this method provided more accurate description of white matter pathways compared to traditional methods. In the second part of this thesis, a prospective motion correction system using an optical tracking device is presented. Such systems are preferable compared to retrospective navigator-based methods due to various reasons, such as ability to perform motion correction independent of the MR data acquisition and immunity to spin history effects. The system proposed used a single camera mounted on the head coil and a self-encoded checkerboard marker mounted on the patient's forehead. Results on structural and diffusion imaging revealed that prospective motion correction outperforms retrospective navigator-based schemes. In the last part of the thesis, entropy-based retrospective autofocusing was used in combination with motion data obtained from prospective tracking to remove residual motion artifacts in the images. This method was especially useful for removing errors caused by inaccurate cross-calibration between the scanner and camera frame-of-references. It was also shown that prospective tracking can be the enabling technology for autofocusing in 3D acquisitions.

Book Comprehensive Head Motion Correction For Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Download or read book Comprehensive Head Motion Correction For Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging written by Zahra Faraji-Dana and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Head motion artifacts are major confounds that limit use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in neuroscience research and clinical settings. Prospective motion correction is a promising candidate solution for head motion in fMRI that ideally allows the image plane to remain fixed with respect to the moving head (i.e., in the moving reference frame). Prospective motion correction has been shown to correct successfully for rigid body movement artifacts, but residual geometric distortion due to dynamic magnetic field nonuniformities and dynamic changes in receiver coil sensitivity profiles in the moving reference frame still remain a problem. This thesis focuses on three objectives. First, I investigated and corrected for the influence of respiratory effects on the performance of dynamic geometric correction using Phase Labeling for Additional Coordinate Encoding (PLACE). It was demonstrated that PLACE combined with the dynamic off-resonance in k-space (DORK) method, and temporal averaging substantially improved fMRI data quality in comparison to the results obtained by standard processing and static geometric distortion correction. Second, I verified that appreciable signal artifacts occur due to coil sensitivity changes in fMRI maps in presence of overt head motion with prospective motion correction using Prospective Acquisition CorrEction (PACE) technique [1]. Sensitivity map compensations were shown to suppress these artifacts and provide improved fMRI results Third, I studied signal artifacts resulted from the head motion between the coil sensitivity map measurement (i.e., the calibration step) and data acquisition for fMRI with parallel-imaging reconstruction methods using two parallel imaging schemes: sensitivity encoding (SENSE) and generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisitions (GRAPPA) with acceleration factors 2 and 4. Coil sensitivity map compensations were shown to improve fMRI results obtained with PACE in the presence of overt head motion compared to those obtained with no overt head motion. Overall, prospective motion correction, integrated dynamic geometric distortion correction, and coil sensitivity map correction present an appealing compound approach for suppressing rigid and non-rigid motion artifacts during fMRI. This thesis has developed robust and comprehensive head motion correction strategies that ultimately will expand the patient populations for which fMRI can be performed robustly.

Book Pitfalls in Diagnostic Radiology

Download or read book Pitfalls in Diagnostic Radiology written by Wilfred C. G. Peh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of diagnostic radiology has become increasingly complex, with the use of numerous imaging modalities and division into many subspecialty areas. It is becoming ever more difficult for subspecialist radiologists, general radiologists, and residents to keep up with the advances that are occurring year on year, and this is particularly true for less familiar topics. Failure to appreciate imaging pitfalls often leads to diagnostic error and misinterpretation, and potential medicolegal problems. This textbook, written by experts from reputable centers across the world, systematically and comprehensively highlights the pitfalls that may occur in diagnostic radiology. Both pitfalls specific to different modalities and techniques and those specific to particular organ systems are described with the help of numerous high-quality illustrations. Recognition of these pitfalls is crucial in helping the practicing radiologist to achieve a more accurate diagnosis.

Book Study Protocol  Value of 7 T MRI with Prospective Motion Correction and Postprocessing for Patients with Nonlesional Epilepsy

Download or read book Study Protocol Value of 7 T MRI with Prospective Motion Correction and Postprocessing for Patients with Nonlesional Epilepsy written by O. Kukhlenko and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The diagnostic yield of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) postprocessing using 7-T data for patients with nonlesional epilepsy has been rarely evaluated, but has shown acceptable diagnostic outcomes. However, to date there have been no prospective clinical studies comparing MP2RAGE sequences in 3-T and 7-T MRI in parallel using the same protocol for morphometric analysis. We present a study protocol developed to address the hypothesis that application of 7-T structural MRI increases the rate of detection of structural lesions with morphometric analysis when compared with parallel coherent study protocols in 3-T MRI. The 7-T MRI study protocol is designed to supply data showing the clinical practicability and proof of principle for increasing the detection rate of subtle epileptogenic lesions
