Strain-dependent T1 relaxation profiles in articular cartilage by MRI at microscopic resolutions.

abstract：:We improved the three-point phase-contrast method by regularization of MR velocity data after acquisition of a low velocity-to-noise ratio (VNR) velocity image and a high VNR aliased velocity image. The phase unwrapping algorithm is based on the assumed correlation of the velocity of adjacent flow voxels on the low VN...
