Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cellular Biology

Background:

  • Time-lapse MRI cell tracking is limited by data acquisition time, impacting signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and temporal resolution.
  • Detecting fast-moving immune cells, such as monocytes, requires advanced MRI acquisition and reconstruction strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an accelerated MRI technique for enhanced temporal resolution in tracking iron-labeled cells.
  • To improve the detection and dynamic follow-up of fast-moving immune cells in vivo.

Main Methods:

  • A flexible Cartesian sampling scheme was designed for simultaneous acquisition of fully sampled and undersampled k-space data.
  • Compressed-sensing reconstruction utilizing dictionary learning and low-rank constraints was applied.
  • The method was validated using simulations, phantom experiments, and in vivo mouse brain MRI at 9.4T.

Main Results:

  • Reconstructed images with 2.4x and 4.8x acceleration factors demonstrated sufficient contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) for dynamic single-cell tracking.
  • Phantom experiments showed a 6.1% CNR improvement per μm/s at 4.8x undersampling, reducing geometric distortion.
  • The accelerated MRI enabled detection of moving cells up to 7.0 μm/s and resolved additional cells in vivo due to improved temporal resolution.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed Cartesian sampling and compressed-sensing reconstruction enable simultaneous acquisition of fully sampled and high temporal resolution images.
  • This approach effectively enhances the CNR of moving cells, allowing for the recovery of high-velocity cells with sufficient contrast.
  • The technique offers a cost-effective solution for improved cell tracking MRI.
