Abstract:Synthetic MRI is being increasingly used for the quantification of brain longitudinal relaxation time (T1), transverse relaxation time (T2), and proton density (PD) values. However, the effect of fast imaging protocols on these quantitative values has not been fully estimated. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of fast scan parameters on T1, T2, and PD measured with a multi-dynamic multi-echo (MDME) sequence of normal brain at 3.0T. Thirty-four volunteers were scanned using 3 MDME sequence… Show more
