Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

10.5K
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...

Assessment of Diffusion and Perfusion

2.1K
Understanding and evaluating diffusion and perfusion is critical in assessing a patient's respiratory and circulatory health. These processes play key roles in maintaining the body's internal environment, ensuring that tissues receive adequate oxygen while waste products are efficiently removed.
The Role of Diffusion in Respiration
Diffusion is the process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In the respiratory system, this...

Diffusion

232.2K
Diffusion is the passive movement of substances down their concentration gradients—requiring no expenditure of cellular energy. Substances, such as molecules or ions, diffuse from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in the cytosol or across membranes. Eventually, the concentration will even out, with the substance moving randomly but causing no net change in concentration. Such a state is called dynamic equilibrium, which is essential for maintaining overall...

    Area of Science:

    • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
    • Materials Science
    • Biophysics

    Background:

    • Diffusion tensor MRI (DT-MRI) phantoms are crucial for calibrating MRI systems.
    • Previous studies established this phantom's utility at low b-values.
    • Characterizing diffusion at high b-values is essential for advanced applications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To extend the characterization of cyclohexane diffusion in a novel electrospun fiber MRI phantom to high b-values.
    • To investigate anomalous diffusion behavior within the phantom.
    • To assess the phantom's suitability for calibrating MRI systems in both Gaussian and anomalous diffusion regimes.

    Main Methods:

    • Diffusion weighted MRI measurements were performed at 9.4 T using an Agilent imaging scanner.
    • Cyclohexane diffusion was studied in a phantom of hollow coaxial electrospun fibers.
    • Data were analyzed using a fractional order Mittag-Leffler decay model.

    Main Results:

    • Anomalous diffusion behavior was observed at high b-values (up to 5000 s/mm²).
    • Diffusion along fibers was Gaussian (2α/β=1), while diffusion across fibers was sub-diffusive (2α/β<1).
    • Fiber tract reconstruction correlated with scanning electron micrograph images.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel MRI phantom exhibits distinct diffusion characteristics along and across its fibers.
    • This phantom material can serve as a calibration standard for both normal and anomalous diffusion regimes in MRI.
    • Further validation of this phantom could enhance the accuracy and reliability of diffusion MRI.
