Image manipulation before MRI volumetric analysis can cause errors. Slice sampling rate and image rotation significantly impact volume estimates, especially for irregularly-shaped regions, affecting anatomical analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Radiology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Image manipulation is common before MRI volumetric analysis.
  • Potential for measurement errors exists due to these manipulations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of slice sampling rate and image rotation on MRI volumetric measurements.
  • To assess the influence of region of interest (ROI) shape on these errors.

Main Methods:

  • A phantom with regular and irregular ROIs was scanned using SPGR sequence with 1-mm slices.
  • Slice sampling rates were varied.
  • Image rotation in non-orthogonal planes was applied.

Main Results:

  • Slice sampling rate changes significantly affected volume estimates for irregularly-shaped ROIs.

  • Regularly-shaped ROIs showed less error with varying slice sampling rates.
  • An interaction between image rotation and slice sampling rate was observed.

    • Conclusions:

    • Image manipulation techniques, specifically slice selection and rotation, can introduce significant errors in MRI-based volume estimations.
    • The accuracy of volumetric analysis is dependent on ROI shape and manipulation parameters.
    • Careful consideration of these factors is crucial for reliable anatomical effect detection.
