  1. 0. BURZTE: Silent Quantitative MRI using ZTE combined with BURST
    Rolf Schulte (GE Healthcare)

    Talk
    ZTE image encoding was combined with Burst imaging by reversing segments of 3D radial spokes in both time and amplitude. This recalls gradient echoes for each spokes/excitation, yielding images with T2* weighting. By adding a pair of refocusing pulses with the appropriate weight period, it is also possible to obtain spin-echoes, leading to T2-weighted images. Data is reconstructed using...

  2. 55. High-Resolution Reconstruction of Arterial Spin Labelling MRI Using Anatomical Priors

    Talk
    This work investigates super-resolution reconstruction and deconvolution of perfusion arterial spin labelling (ASL) images using a high-resolution T1-weighted MRI with the aim of reducing the partial volume effect on the estimated cerebral blood flow (CBF). The MR acquisition matrix was factorized to model the down-sampling and blurring of the underlying ASL images, as well as MR coil...

  3. 63. Assessment of mesoscopic properties of brain iron through a model-based analysis of magnetic susceptibility and R2* MRI in multiple sclerosis
    Ferdinand Schweser (Buffalo Neuroimaging Analysis Center, University at Buffalo)

    Talk
    Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) of brain tissue has confirmed that both R2* and magnetic susceptibility increase linearly with the tissue iron concentration in humans without neurological diseases. However, being related to mesoscopic magnetic field inhomogeneities, R2* depends not only on the voxel-average concentration but also on the distribution of iron in the tissue....

  4. 5. Quantitative Evaluation of Magnetic Susceptibility Dynamics during Brain Function
    Mauro Costagli (Imago7)
    22/05/2018, 09:30
    Talk
    Functional Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (fQSM) is a recent method that, based on the same acquisition technique as conventional functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), has two very appealing features: it is quantitative and it is less affected by non-local effects than the Blood Oxygenation Level-Dependent (BOLD) signal. Here, for the first time, the response of the auditory...
