Standing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for horses shows promise. Motion artifacts in standing horse limb MRI were significantly reduced using advanced correction techniques, enabling better diagnostic images.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Equine Medicine

Background:

  • Diagnostic imaging of equine distal extremities is crucial for lameness diagnosis.
  • Standing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers potential advantages over general anesthesia but faces challenges with motion artifacts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify motion in the standing, sedated horse's distal limbs.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of motion-correction techniques for improving MRI quality in standing equine limbs.

Main Methods:

  • Quantified carpus and tarsus motion in five standing, sedated horses.
  • Induced measured motion in cadaveric equine joints during MRI scans.
  • Applied retrospective autocorrelation and navigator-based adaptive correction techniques.

Main Results:

  • Standing, sedated horses exhibited several centimeters of random limb motion.
  • This motion caused severe artifacts in axial MRI scans of cadaveric specimens.
  • Both motion-correction techniques, applied sequentially, nearly eliminated motion artifacts.

Conclusions:

  • Motion is a significant challenge for diagnostic quality MRI in standing horses.
  • Retrospective motion correction shows promise for improving MRI of equine carpus and tarsus.
  • Further development may enable routine standing MRI for distal limb diagnosis in horses.
