Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

5.2K
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...

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:

  • Radiology and Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Gadolinium contrast agents are crucial for MRI, especially in neuroimaging, aiding diagnosis of inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic conditions by detecting blood-brain barrier breakdown.
  • However, gadolinium contrast use is associated with significant risks, including nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, gadolinium deposition in brain and bone tissues, and allergic-like reactions.
  • The evolution of computer hardware and AI presents opportunities to mitigate these risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the clinical applications of gadolinium contrast agents in MRI, with a focus on neuroimaging.
  • To summarize the known risks and adverse effects associated with gadolinium contrast administration.
  • To explore the current state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) methods for reducing or eliminating gadolinium contrast doses in neuroimaging and discuss their limitations.
