Accuracy of magnetic resonance based susceptibility measurements

February 6, 2017
Author(s)
Hannah E. Erdevig, Stephen E. Russek, Slavka Carnicka, Karl F. Stupic, Kathryn E. Keenan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to map the magnetic susceptibility of tissue to identify cerebral microbleeds associated with traumatic brain injury and pathological iron deposits associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as

Temperature measurements in MRI using ferromagnetic particles

August 9, 2016
Author(s)
Karl F. Stupic, Janusz H. Hankiewicz, Zbigniew Celinski, Robert E. Camley
We explore the possibility of using small ferromagnetic particles with a strong temperature- dependent magnetization to produce temperature maps using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present the first experimental results showing that the 1H nuclear

Comparison of T1 measurement using ISMRM/NIST system phantom

May 9, 2016
Author(s)
Kathryn E. Keenan, Karl F. Stupic, Michael A. Boss, Stephen E. Russek, Thomas L. Chenevert, Pottumarthi V. Prasad, Wilburn E. Reddick, Jie Zheng, Peng Hu, Edward F. Jackson
We used the ISMRM/NIST system phantom to assess variations of T1 measurements across MRI systems at 1.5 T and 3 T, to determine the repeatability and reproducibility of the T1 measurements. This study demonstrates that T1 variations from NMR-measured value

Variability and bias assessment in breast ADC measurement across multiple systems

February 29, 2016
Author(s)
Kathryn E. Keenan, Sheye O. Aliu, Lisa J. Wilmes, David C. Newitt, Ella F. Jones, Wen Li, Michael A. Boss, Karl F. Stupic, Stephen E. Russek, Nola M. Hylton
Purpose: To assess the ability of a recent, anatomically designed breast phantom incorporating T 1 and diffusion elements to serve as a quality control device for quantitative comparison of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements calculated from

A Design-of-Experiments Approach to FEM Uncertainty Analysis for Optimizing Magnetic Resonance Imaging RF Coil Design

October 10, 2014
Author(s)
Jeffrey T. Fong, Nathanael A. Heckert, James J. Filliben, Li Ma, Karl F. Stupic, Kathryn E. Keenan, Stephen E. Russek
Using the RF module of COMSOL, we compute the magnetic flux density norm (BN) profiles for frequencies in the 76 to 100 MHz range, inside of a prototype birdcage coil, courtesy of Japan's National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), loaded with a
