MR Parallel Imaging System Reducing Imaging Time
ActiveUS20140070803A1Good effectIncreased RF pulse sequence duty cycleMeasurements using NMR imaging systemsElectric/magnetic detectionParallel imagingPulse sequence
An MR imaging system uses multiple RF coils, for reducing image acquisition time, suitable for chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging. Multiple RF (Radio Frequency) coils provide CEST imaging preparation in an anatomical volume by providing multiple interleaved RF pulses. The multiple interleaved RF pulses provide substantially increased RF pulse sequence duty cycle in the multiple RF coils relative to a duty cycle provided by a single coil of the multiple RF coils. The multiple RF coils subsequently provide RF excitation pulses in a reduced anatomical volume using k-space undersampling in an accelerated imaging method using the multiple RF coils and enable subsequent acquisition of associated RF echo data for deriving a CEST image.

Apparatus, system, method and computer-readable medium for isolating chemical exchange saturation transfer contrast from magnetization transfer asymmetry under two-frequency RF irradiation. A two-pool model for magnetization transfer (MT) can be established fully based on Provotorov's theory of saturation, and then extended to the situation of simultaneous two-frequency RF irradiation. Numerical simulations and experimental results demonstrate that two-frequency RF irradiation can make MT effects independent of irradiation frequency over a wide range, and thus can suppress MT asymmetry. Exemplary embodiments can be provided to isolate chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) contrast from MT asymmetry contrast by using the two-frequency RF irradiation technique. A further embodiment can isolate a narrow-frequency spectrum MT mechanism from a broad-frequency spectrum MT mechanism.

The invention discloses a chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging method and device based on a variable acceleration sensitivity encoding method, and belongs to the field of magnetic resonance imaging. In the method, Fourier transform is carried out on K-space data formed by a measured object in CEST imaging to obtain image space folding data of each voxel, wherein the image space folding data includes at least one undersampled frame accurate image with the acceleration factor R1 being greater than or equal to 1 and a plurality of other to-be-reconstructed undersampled frame images with the acceleration factor being not less than R1; and then image reconstruction is carried out on the to-be-reconstructed undersampled frame images with the acceleration factor being R2. The sensitivity map of the traditional SENSE method can be modified by using undersampled frames. The reconstruction error of the method is basically the same as that of the traditional SNESE method which applies a low acceleration factor in a CEST source image, but the speed of the method is twice or more the speed of the traditional SENSE method. Since it is unnecessary to adopt fully sampled frames, the method is particularly applicable to three-dimensional (3D) CEST imaging.
