Spectral improvement by fourier thresholding of in vivo dynamic spectroscopy data

Abstract: Purpose Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) typically requires averaging of multiple acquisitions to achieve adequate signal to noise (SNR). In systems undergoing dynamic changes this can compromise the temporal resolution of the measurement. One such example is 31P MRS of exercising skeletal muscle. Spectral Improvement by Fourier Thresholding (SIFT) offers a way of suppressing noise without averaging. In this study we evaluate the performance of SIFT in healthy subjects and clinical cases. Methods 31P MR… Show more

“…Prior to fitting the spectra, two filtering steps were applied to improve spectral SNR while minimizing the need to sacrifice the temporal resolution imperative to capturing the cardiopulmonary dynamics. First, the raw FIDs were processed using the spectral improvement by Fourier thresholding (SIFT) method . This involves Fourier transforming the raw data along the indirect time dimension (time with respect to the breath‐hold) and retaining only the Fourier coefficients that exceed a predetermined threshold of two standard deviations above the noise in the temporal‐frequency domain.…”

“…First, the raw FIDs were processed using the spectral improvement by Fourier thresholding (SIFT) method. 21,22 This involves Fourier transforming the raw data along the indirect time dimension (time with respect to the breath-hold) and retaining only the Fourier coefficients that exceed a predetermined threshold of two standard deviations above the noise in the temporal-frequency domain. The data are then Fourier transformed back along the indirect frequency dimension to undergo spectral curve fitting.…”

“…Briefly, the SIFT was applied to improve SNR and smooth temporal trajectories of the 300 spectra. The spectra were then fit using a simulated basis set to obtain the 31 P metabolite areas . The postexercise PCr amplitudes were fit to a monoexponential recovery function A+Bexp(tτ) to determine the recovery time constant τ.…”

“…Magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the 31Phosphorus nucleus can be used to explore several interesting metabolic processes in vivo, including energy metabolism, cell membrane turnover, and intra‐ and extra‐cellular pH . However, there are many challenges to acquiring high quality phosphorus spectra, particularly the low sensitivity of the 31P nucleus relative to 1H, and the generally low concentrations of the metabolites of interest, which result in low signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR).…”
