Normal fetal adipose tissue (AT) development is essential for perinatal well-being. AT, or simply fat, stores energy in the form of lipids. Malnourishment may result in excessive or depleted adiposity. Although previous studies showed a…

Purpose: To develop an MRI technique for free-breathing 3D whole-liver quantification of water T1, water T2, proton density fat fraction (PDFF), R2*. Methods: An Eight-echo spoiled gradient echo pulse sequence with spiral readout was…

There has been recent interest in the use of magnitude-based fitting methods for estimating proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and R2* from chemical shift-encoded MRI (CSE-MRI) data, since these methods can still be used when complex- based…

Dixon MRI is widely used for body composition studies. Current processing methods associated with large whole-body volumes are time intensive and prone to artifacts during fat-water separation performed on the scanner, making the data…

Purpose: To develop a technique for joint measurement of fat and water-specific longitudinal relaxation rates (R1f and R1w), effective transverse relaxation rate (R2*), and proton density fat fraction (PDFF) combining the Multi-Echo…

Purpose: To improve on the original form of Fat DESPOT, a multiparametric mapping technique that returns the fat- and water-specific estimates of $R_1$ ($R_{1f}$, $R_{1w}$), $R_2^*$ , and proton density fat fraction (PDFF) by upgrading the…

Purpose: A new method for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging water-fat separation using a convolutional neural network (ConvNet) and deep learning (DL) is presented. Feasibility of the method with complex and magnitude images is demonstrated…

An end-to-end image analysis pipeline is presented for the abdominal MRI protocol used in the UK Biobank on the first 38,971 participants. Emphasis is on the processing steps necessary to ensure a high-level of data quality and consistency…

Tracking the migration of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) labeled immune cells in vivo is valuable for understanding the immunogenic response to cancer and therapies. Quantitative cell tracking using compressed sensing TurboSPI-based…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of thigh and calf muscles is one of the most effective techniques for estimating fat infiltration into muscular dystrophies. The infiltration of adipose tissue into the diseased muscle region varies in its…

Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) enables the simultaneous quantification of multiple properties of biological tissues. It relies on a pseudo-random acquisition and the matching of acquired signal evolutions to a precomputed…

Purpose: Magnitude-based fitting of chemical shift-encoded data enables proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and R2* estimation where complex-based methods fail or when phase data is inaccessible or unreliable. However, traditional…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the non-invasive modality of choice for body tissue composition analysis due to its excellent soft tissue contrast and lack of ionizing radiation. However, quantification of body composition requires an…

Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) is an efficient quantitative MRI technique that can extract important tissue and system parameters such as T1, T2, B0, and B1 from a single scan. This property also makes it attractive for…

Magnetic resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) is a relatively new multi-parametric quantitative imaging method that involves a two-step process: (i) reconstructing a series of time frames from highly-undersampled non-Cartesian spiral k-space data…

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly incorporated into treatment planning, because of its superior soft tissue contrast used for tumor and soft tissue delineation versus computed tomography (CT). However, MRI cannot directly…

In response to the increasing demand for efficient and non-invasive methods to estimate food weight, this paper presents a vision-based approach utilizing 2D images. The study employs a dataset of 2380 images comprising fourteen different…

Purpose: Development of a fast and fully automated deep learning pipeline (FatSegNet) to accurately identify, segment, and quantify abdominal adipose tissue on Dixon MRI from the Rhineland Study - a large prospective population-based study.…

Volume Interpolated Breath-Hold Examination (VIBE) MRI generates images suitable for water and fat signal composition estimation. While the two-point VIBE provides water-fat-separated images, the six-point VIBE allows estimation of the…

Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-based synthesis of fat suppressed (FS) MRIs from non-FS proton density sequences has the potential to accelerate acquisition of knee MRIs. However, GANs trained on single-site data have poor…
