Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...

Imaging Studies IV: Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Introduction:Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, can include a specialized imaging technique of the urinary system known as Magnetic Resonance Urography (MRU). This radiation-free technique uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images with the help of a computer. MRU is particularly effective for visualizing fluid-filled structures like the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.Applications of MRI in the Genitourinary SystemKidneys and Ureters: MRI detects tumors, cysts,...
Positron Emission Tomography01:29

Positron Emission Tomography

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body being...
Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System IV: CMRI

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, or CMRI, is a non-invasive diagnostic test that employs a magnetic field and radiofrequency waves to create precise images of the heart and arteries. It provides comprehensive information about cardiac anatomy, function, perfusion, and tissue characterization without ionizing radiation.IndicationsCMRI diagnoses various heart conditions, including tissue damage from heart attacks, ischemic heart disease, myocarditis, aortic issues (tears, aneurysms,...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Biophysics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Quantifying bolus-tracking MRI, particularly dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), is challenging due to simplified models and single-contrast acquisitions.
  • Inaccurate perfusion estimates arise from simplifications in interstitial models used in DCE-MRI analysis.
  • Existing models often overlook crucial biophysical phenomena occurring within a voxel during DCE-MRI.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a numerical tool for simulating MR signal in DCE-MRI experiments.
  • To evaluate the impact of interstitial model simplifications on perfusion estimates.
  • To assess how contrast agent (CA) diffusivity and echo time affect permeability and blood volume calculations.

Main Methods:

  • A novel simulation tool was developed to model DCE-MRI signal.
  • The model incorporates R1/R2 relaxations, magnetic susceptibility, diffusion, blood flow, vessel wall permeability, and CA diffusion.
  • Simulations were validated against classical models and tested with realistic vascular geometries and impermeable cells.

Main Results:

  • CA diffusivity showed a minor impact (<5%) on permeability estimates.
  • Simulations revealed that echo times (TE) as short as 5 ms can lead to significant underestimation of blood volume (up to 30%).
  • The simulation tool demonstrated versatility with complex vascular models and impermeable cells.

Conclusions:

  • The developed simulation tool accurately describes DCE-MRI experiments.
  • It provides a valuable platform for evaluating the effects of CA diffusivity and acquisition parameters like echo time.
  • This tool can be used to optimize DCE-MRI acquisition and processing strategies for improved accuracy.
