Clinical applications of STAGE published in the journal Magnetic Resonance Imaging
One major thrust in radiology today is image standardization with a focus on rapidly acquired quantitative multi-contrast information. This is critical for multi-center trials, for the collection of big data and for the use of artificial intelligence in evaluating the...
Susceptibility Weighted Imaging and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping of the Cerebral Vasculature Using Ferumoxytol
Abstract Purpose—To demonstrate the potential of imaging cerebral arteries and veins with ferumoxytol using susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) and quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM). Materials and Methods—The relationships between ferumoxytol concentration...
Strategically acquired gradient Echo (STAGE) imaging, part II: Correcting for RF inhomogeneities in estimating T1 and proton density
Abstract Purpose: To develop a method for mapping the B1 transmit (B1t) and B1 receive (B1r) fields from two gradient echo datasets each with a different flip angle and from these two images obtain accurate T1 and proton density (PD) maps of the brain. Methods: A...
