Loss of fine structure and edge sharpness in fast-spin-echo carotid wall imaging: measurements and comparison with multiple-spin-echo in normal and atherosclerotic subjects.
- Abstract:
-
PURPOSE: To test whether the k-space acquisition strategy used by fast-spin-echo (FSE) is a major source of blurring in carotid wall and plaque imaging, and investigate an alternative acquisition approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effect of echo train length (ETL) and T(2) on the amount of blurring was studied in FSE simulations of vessel images. Edge sharpness was measured in black-blood T(1) W and proton density-weighted (PDW) carotid images acquired from 5 normal volunteers and 19 asympt...
