  • 목적: 최근, 미국 애리조나 세도나에서 열린 국제자기공명학회 (ISMRM) 주관의 2009년 데이터 샘플링과 영상 복원에 관한 워크샵에서 자기공명영상 복원 대회가 열렸다. 이 대회는 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 에 대한 고속 촬영의 실제 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위한 것이었다. 본 논문은 이 대회의 우승 결과를 얻은 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬을 단계별로 자세히 묘사하도록 한다. 대상 및 방법: 본 그룹은 앞선 연구에서 비교적 덜 스파스한 심장 영상에 대해 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬이 성공적으로 압축센싱 문제를 풀수 있음을 증명했다. 따라서 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬을 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 에 적용함으로써, 매우 정확한 영상 복원이 가능할 것이다. 영상 복원을 위해 X-ray 대뇌 혈관조영 영상으로부터 구성된 다운 샘플링된 데이터가 대회 주최측으로부터 공통으로 제시되었고, 방사선과 의사들이 각 복원된 영상에 대한 사전 정보 없이, 원래 영상과 복원된 결과를 비교함으로써, 영상의 질을 평가하였다. 결과: 다양한 다운샘플링에 대해 얻어진 결과들은 영상의 스파스 변환이나 샘플링 형태와 같은 압축센싱의 중요한 요소들에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다는 것을 보여주었다. 결론: 복원된 결과로부터, 압축센싱 동적자기공명영상 기법인 k-t FOCUSS 가 고해상도의 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 를 가능하게 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • Contrast-enhanced MR angiography has become a widely used method useful for clinical diagnosis. Early studies identified a number of technical issues, and many of these have been addressed with various MRI physics innovations over the last several years. The quality of the results is high enough that CE MRA is replacing conventional x-ray angiography methods at many institutions. Ongoing research is expected to provide further improvements in performance, most notably in additional reductions in examination time, in time-resolved 3D imaging, and in improved imaging of the peripheral vasculature with extended fields of view.

  • Purpose： Subclavian steal refers to the retrograde flow of blood in a vertebral artery that supplies t ipsilateral shoulder and arm caused by proximal subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion. T purpose of this exhibit is to demonstrate MR findings of subclavian steal on contrast-enhanc 3D (CE 3DMRA) and 2D TOF MR angiography. Method： Four patients(men 3 and women 1, age： 28-78years) with subclavian steal obtained both CE 3DMRA and digital subtraction angiography(DSA) including subclavian arterie Sequential imaging was undertaken during first pass after double dose of Gd-DTPA (0 mM/kg) Injected by a power injector. Coronal source images were obtained with coronal D-fast low angle shot sequence(TR/TE/flip angle=3.8/l.3/35, acquisition time= 10sec/one measurement). Precontrast imaging was subtracted from enhanced images and maximu intensity projection was done. 2D time-of-flight MR angiography(2D TOF) of the carot bifurcation was added in all cases with post-saturation. All studies were review retrospectively.

  • This study is aimed to optimize a location of region of interest (ROI) in test bolus carotid contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) at 3.0T. A total of consecutive 270 patients with no cardiovascular and vessel diseases were selected. Patients underwent elliptical centric 3D CE-MRA with the test bolus technique to identify the individual arterial arrival time. Quantitative measurements were performed by drawing ROIs of $25mm^2$ and signal intensities (SI) were measured in the center of common carotid artery (CCA), internal carotid artery (ICA) and aortic arch (AA). As a result, ROIs located within AA showed a significantly clarified arterial peak and over three times increased SI, while no significant arterial peak time differences were observed compared to ROIs located within CCA. In conclusion, it was demonstrated that the aortic arch is the optimal position to locate ROI in test bolus images of the carotid CE-MRA.
