A 3D dual-echo spiral sequence for simultaneous dynamic susceptibility contrast and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI with single bolus injection
CONCLUSION: A 3D dual-echo spiral technique was developed to simultaneously acquire both DSC and DCE data in a single-bolus injection with reduced contrast use. Preliminary volunteer and patient data demonstrated increased temporal SNR, reduced geometric artifacts, and accurate perfusion quantification, suggesting a competitive alternative to SOC-EPI techniques for brain perfusion MRI.PMID:38469930 | DOI:10.1002/mrm.30077 (Source: Magnetic Resonance in Medicine)

Tailored and universal parallel transmit broadband pulses for homogeneous 3D excitation of the human heart at 7T
CONCLUSION: Broadband TP and UP can be used for homogeneous excitation of the heart volume across a 1300 Hz frequency range, including the water and the main six fat peaks, or with longer pulse durations and higher FAs for a smaller transmit bandwidth. Moreover, despite large inter-volunteer variations, broadband UP can be used for calibration-free 3D heart FA homogenization in time-critical situations.PMID:38440957 | DOI:10.1002/mrm.30072 (Source: Magnetic Resonance in Medicine)
