Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

5.1K
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...

NMR Spectrometers: Resolution and Error Correction

681
When magnetic nuclei in a sample achieve resonance and undergo relaxation, the signal detected in NMR is an approximately exponential free induction decay. Fourier transform of an exponential decay yields a Lorentzian peak in the frequency domain. Lorentzian peaks in an NMR spectrum are defined by their amplitude, full width at half maximum, and position, where the peak width is governed by the spin-spin relaxation time alone. In real experiments, however, the applied magnetic field is rendered...

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

6.9K
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (SRFM) provides a better resolution than conventional fluorescence microscopy by reducing the point spread function (PSF). PSF is the light intensity distribution from a point that causes it to appear blurred. Due to PSF, each fluorescing point appears bigger than its actual size, and it is the PSF interference of nearby fluorophores that causes the blurred image. Various approaches to achieving higher resolution through SRFM have recently been...

Atomic Nuclei: Magnetic Resonance

642
The number of nuclear spins aligned in the lower energy state is slightly greater than those in the higher energy state. In the presence of an external magnetic field, as the spins precess at the Larmor frequency, the excess population results in a net magnetization oriented along the z axis. When a pulse or a short burst of radio waves at the Larmor frequency is applied along the x axis, the coupling of frequencies causes resonance and flips the nuclear spins of the excess population from the...

Double Resonance Techniques: Overview01:12

Double Resonance Techniques: Overview

193
Double resonance techniques in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy involve the simultaneous application of two different frequencies or radiofrequency pulses to manipulate and observe two distinct nuclear spins. One important application of double resonance is spin decoupling, which selectively suppresses coupling with one type of nucleus while observing the NMR signal from another nucleus, simplifying the spectrum and enhancing resolution.
Spin decoupling is usually achieved by...

Applications Of NMR In Biology

3.7K
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a very valuable analytical technique for researchers. It has been used for more than 50 years as an analytical tool. F. Bloch and E. Purcell formulated NMR in 1946 and won the 1952 Nobel Prize in Physics  for their work. Biological macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and organic molecules including pharmaceutical compounds, can be studied using this versatile tool that exploits the magnetic properties of certain nuclei.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Image Processing
  • Computational Neuroscience

Background:

  • Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging is crucial for diagnosing neurological conditions.
  • Existing denoising and super-resolution (SR) methods often require extensive prior information or example datasets.
  • Enhancing the resolution and reducing noise in MR images are critical for accurate diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a unified, unsupervised framework for simultaneous denoising and super-resolution of MR images.
  • To improve the quality and diagnostic utility of MR images without relying on external data.
  • To address limitations of current methods in handling real-world MR image noise and low resolution.

Main Methods:

  • A novel framework integrating denoising and super-resolution (SR) techniques for MR images.
  • Patch-based denoising differentiating between smooth and textured regions with tailored strategies.
  • A gradient profile-based constraint within a sparse representation framework for SR, regularizing HR image estimation.
  • Estimation of gradient profile sharpness (GPS) using an approximated linear relation between LR and upsampled LR images.

Main Results:

  • The proposed SR approach demonstrated superior performance over the existing unsupervised low-rank and total variation (LRTV) regularization method.
  • Achieved average improvements in peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of 0.73 dB and 0.38 dB for upsampling factors 2 and 3, respectively.
  • Outperformed the LRTV approach by 0.54 dB and 0.46 dB for noisy MR images (2% noise) at upsampling factors 2 and 3, respectively.

Conclusions:

  • The integrated denoising and SR framework effectively enhances MR image quality without prior examples.
  • The method shows significant improvements in PSNR and qualitative results on diverse MR datasets, including those from patients with Alzheimer's disease and cavernoma.
  • This unsupervised approach offers a promising solution for improving MR image analysis in clinical settings.
