    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Biophysics

    Background:

    • Accurate T1 mapping is crucial for quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
    • Traditional methods face challenges with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and spatial resolution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a novel method for producing high-SNR and high-resolution T1-weighted images.
    • To ensure accurate T1 value quantification using surface coil technology.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized separate transmit and receive radiofrequency (RF) coils with electronic decoupling for uniform B1 excitation.
    • Implemented a T1 calculation that normalizes the receiver coil's sensitivity profile.
    • Employed surface coils to enhance spatial resolution and signal detection.

    Main Results:
