| OVERVIEW |
|
This four hour course is
designed for attendees with an interest in the workings
and capabilities of contemporary MR image
reconstruction, and is dedicated to recent advances and
directions in this field. Its eight lectures are grouped
around the general themes of extended encoding models,
sparse sampling, and prior knowledge. Specifically, they
will address the principles and practice of fast
non-Cartesian reconstruction, B0 inhomogeneity
correction, parallel imaging, sparse sampling, water-fat
imaging and motion correction. |

| EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
|
Upon completion of this
case based session, participants should be able to:
- Describe the main steps involved in efficient
non-Cartesian image reconstruction;
- Formulate a generalized signal model
incorporating gradient encoding, coil sensitivity
and B0 inhomogeneity;
- List the pro’s and con’s of Cartesian and
non-Cartesian parallel MRI;
- Compare compressed sensing, HYPR, and k-t BLAST
with respect to their use of prior knowledge
- Describe the principles of separating water and
fat signals; and
- Name three different approaches for motion
correction and appraise their potential to become
routine methods.
