Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Developmental Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Diffusion MRI (dMRI) is crucial for fetal brain microstructure analysis.
  • Fetal motion and magnetic field inhomogeneities cause significant artifacts in dMRI data.
  • Existing methods struggle with the challenges of in-utero dMRI acquisition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce HAITCH, an open-source framework for correcting and reconstructing high-angular resolution dMRI data from fetal scans.
  • Address challenges posed by fetal motion and magnetic field inhomogeneities.
  • Enhance the fidelity and consistency of fetal dMRI analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized an optimized multi-shell dMRI design for enhanced information capture and motion tolerance.
  • Implemented blip-reversed dual-echo multi-shell acquisition for dynamic distortion correction.
  • Employed advanced model-free motion correction and outlier detection for robust reconstruction.

Main Results:

  • HAITCH demonstrated significant improvements in correcting fetal dMRI scans across various fetal ages and motion levels.
  • The framework effectively removed artifacts and reduced data scattering.
  • Reconstructed high-fidelity dMRI data suitable for advanced diffusion modeling.

Conclusions:

  • HAITCH provides an effective solution for artifact correction in challenging fetal dMRI data.
  • The framework enables more accurate and reliable analysis of fetal brain development using dMRI.
  • HAITCH facilitates advanced diffusion modeling and tractography in fetal neuroimaging research.
