    Summary

    This study introduces a new method to remove ghosting artifacts in diffusion-weighted MRI scans. The technique effectively corrects for both standard Echo Planar Imaging (EPI) ghosts and motion-induced artifacts without needing extra calibration scans.

    Area of Science:

    • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
    • Medical Imaging
    • Image Reconstruction

    Background:

    • Echo Planar Imaging (EPI) MRI data are susceptible to Nyquist ghost artifacts due to EPI read-out shifts.
    • Segmented k-space EPI acquisitions, particularly for diffusion-weighted imaging, introduce complex ghosting due to under-sampling and inter-shot motion.
    • Existing artifact correction methods often require separate calibration scans, adding complexity and time to the imaging process.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a single-step method for removing both Nyquist ghosting and inter-shot motion-induced artifacts in diffusion-weighted MRI.
    • To eliminate the need for pre-acquisition calibration scans in artifact correction.
    • To improve the quality of diffusion-weighted MRI data.

    Main Methods:

    • A novel, comprehensive method was developed to address multiple ghosting artifact sources simultaneously.
    • The method processes partial Fourier data, integrating corrections for EPI read-out shifts and inter-shot motion.
    • No additional calibration scans are required, simplifying the acquisition protocol.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method successfully removed Nyquist ghosting artifacts.
    • Inter-shot motion-induced ghosting artifacts were effectively mitigated.
    • High-quality diffusion-weighted MRI data were recovered in a single processing step.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed method offers an efficient and effective solution for correcting complex ghosting artifacts in diffusion-weighted EPI MRI.
    • Eliminating the need for calibration scans streamlines the MRI acquisition and processing workflow.
    • This technique has the potential to significantly improve the diagnostic utility of diffusion-weighted MRI.
