A New Strategy for Spectroscopic Imaging

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

This paper describes a new approach for reducing ringing artifact in spectroscopic imaging (or chemical shift imaging). In order to reduce the ringing and maintain adequate SNR for the metabolites, the data points in high k-space are measured with one or few excitations while those in the low k-space are sampled with many excitation. By the virtue of this sampling scheme, the data contain more noise in the high spatial frequency region and direct Fourier transform reconstruction will generate a very noisy image. Therefore a technique based on adaptive smoothing is also developed for the reconstruction. From simulated and in vivo proton CSI experiments, we conclude that the technique is a robust technique and can be used for in vivo applications.
