Robust motion correction in CEST imaging exploiting low-rank approximation of the z-spectrum.

abstract：:Quantification of peak velocity is important in the assessment of stenotic flow jets in patients with congenital heart disease. Phase-contrast magnetic resonance underestimates peak velocities. Hence, clinically Doppler ultrasound is used as the reference standard for assessing stenoses. It is possible to accurately m...

abstract：PURPOSE:Subendocardial dark-rim artifacts (DRAs) remain a major concern in first-pass perfusion (FPP) myocardial MRI and may lower the diagnostic accuracy for detection of ischemia. A major source of DRAs is the "Gibbs ringing" effect. We propose an optimized radial acquisition strategy aimed at eliminating ringing-ind...
