Enhancement of MRI Imaging by Combining Ramp Sampling and Parallel Imaging Techniques in Cerebral Tumors
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN PHYSICS - Year 2019, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Our aim was to decrease geometric distortion artifact in DWI on brain by using different MR techniques such as ramp sampling and parallel imaging. The study was done on 15 patients, They were subject to routine brain MRI examination for different symptoms, examination was done on 1.5 T scanner, patients were divided to three group five patient in each group, geometric distortion in frontal and occipital lobe measured in the routine acquired DWI and after used the interested strategy compared to anatomical T2-FSE acquired in the routine examination then reduction percentage for each strategy was calculated. Application of parallel technique imaging showed significant artifact reduction in frontal lobe with approximately 54.36 % and about 34.8% in occipital lobe, while ramp sampling showed reduction with approximately 19% in frontal lobe and reduced artifact by 41.58% in the occipital lobe. Finally we conclude that using new techniques such as ramp sampling and parallel imaging used with EPI data acquisition reduced geometric distortion artifact and increased geometric resolution.

A non-abelian model SU(N) x SU(N)
A composite non-abelian model SU(N) x SU(N) is proposed as possible extension of the Yang-Mills symmetry. We obtain the corresponding gauge symmetry of the model and the most general lagrangian invariant by SU(N) x SU(N)...
A perpetuum mobile of second kind is possible
 Great and important discoveries befall there seldom, but this one is just such a discovery. The discovery is in physics which disproves the validness of the second law of thermodynamics and several others up to now con...
THE CONCEPTUAL DEFECT OF THE LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION OR FREE FALL: A DIALECTICAL REASSESSMENT OF KEPLERS LAWS:
The concept of Universal Gravitation or Free Fall common to both Newtons Law and the Theory of General Relativity (GR) of Albert Einstein is one-sided, idealistic and an anti-dialectical notion in cosmology. It is also...
The Contribution of Degenerate Electron Pressure to The Stability of The Outer Region of Thin Keplerian Accretion Disks Around a Neutron Star
The stability analysis of a geometrically thin, gas-pressure dominated accretion disk around a neutron star is presented. In purely radial perturbation case, thin disk is stable to thermal modes. The stability is analyz...
