Area of Science:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Medical Physics
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Subject motion is a significant challenge in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), compromising the accuracy of diffusion parameter quantification.
  • Current retrospective motion correction methods are applied post-acquisition and can be limited by long measurement times and subject movement.
  • Prospective motion correction (PMC) offers real-time motion tracking and compensation during data acquisition, but its application in DWI is hindered by contrast variations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel prospective motion correction technique for diffusion-weighted imaging.
  • To overcome the limitations of contrast variation between diffusion-gradient directions in DWI.
  • To enable real-time motion detection and compensation during MRI acquisition.

Main Methods:

  • Exploited the rotational invariance of the diffusion tensor's trace for fast image registration using a least-squares cost function.
  • Developed an image-based motion detection algorithm for real-time adaptation of slice position and orientation.
  • Evaluated the technique using pseudo-trace-weighted images on a clinical MRI system with varying b-values.

Main Results:

  • Motion parameter estimates showed high agreement (R=0.9634) with reference values from low-b-value images across subjects and b-values up to 3000s/mm².
  • Prospective motion correction reduced misregistrations to sub-millimeter and sub-degree levels (e.g., <0.2mm translation, <0.2° rotation for 2mm isotropic voxels).
  • Achieved high-quality diffusion parameter maps, robustly reducing misregistration even without head restraint or post-acquisition correction.

Conclusions:

  • The developed PMC technique effectively reduces motion-induced misregistration in diffusion-weighted imaging.
  • This method provides a robust and practical solution for improving image quality and quantitative accuracy in DWI.
  • Enables high-fidelity diffusion MRI acquisition, even in challenging conditions like patient movement during scans.
