Diffusion-relaxation scattered MR signal representation in a multi-parametric sequence

This work focuses on obtaining a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal representation that accounts for a longitudinal T-1 and transverse T-2* relaxations while at the same time integrating directional diffusion in the context of scattered multi-parametr ...

Fractal analysis in the quantification of medical imaging associated with multiple sclerosis pathology

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Backgrounds: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inveterate phlogistic situation characterized by focal and vaguely diffusive de-myelination and neurodegeneration, in the sphere of central nervous system (CNS). The brain's chronic inflammatory reaction includes ...

Quantitative Microstructural Imaging for Clinical Use

Gian Franco Piredda

Today, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a well-established medical imaging modality thanks to its excellent soft tissue contrast. Conventional MR image contrasts can be weighted towards one or more physical properties that discriminate different tissues ...

Self-Attentive Spatial Adaptive Normalization for Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Manana Lortkipanidze, Guillaume Marc Georges Vray, Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar, Devavrat Tomar

Despite the successes of deep neural networks on many challenging vision tasks, they often fail to generalize to new test domains that are not distributed identically to the training data. The domain adaptation becomes more challenging for cross-modality m ...

Measuring compartmental T-2-orientational dependence in human brain white matter using a tiltable RF coil and diffusion-T-2 correlation MRI

Muhamed Barakovic

The anisotropy of brain white matter microstructure manifests itself in orientational-dependence of various MRI contrasts, and can result in significant quantification biases if ignored. Understanding the origins of this orientation-dependence could enhanc ...

Vascular-targeted micelles as a specific MRI contrast agent for molecular imaging of fibrin clots and cancer cells

Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Vassily Vorobiev, Aurélien Thomas

Molecular medical imaging is intended to increase the accuracy of diagnosis, particularly in cardiovascular and cancer-related diseases, where early detection could significantly increase the treatment success rate. In this study, we present mixed micelles ...

Methods to Enhance Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Sensitivity at High Magnetic Field

Claudia Christina Zanella

MR is a well-established technique routinely used in preclinical and clinical studies. This thesis focussed on the improvement of sensitivity of different methods in MR. Hyperpolarized 129Xe gas is used for studying pulmonary disease or cerebral perfusion ...

Non-exponential magnetic relaxation in magnetic nanoparticles for hyperthermia

Ferenc Simon, Bence Gábor Márkus

Magnetic nanoparticle based hyperthermia emerged as a potential tool for treating malignant tumours. The efficiency of the method relies heavily on the knowledge of magnetic properties of the samples; in particular, knowledge of the frequency dependent com ...

Fat navigators based retrospective motion correction strategies for brain magnetic resonance imaging

Frédéric Gretsch

Magnetic resonance resonance (MRI) is a widely used modality to obtain in vivo tissue information. Clinical applications are near countless, and almost all body parts can be examined using an MR scanner. As the method is non invasive, does not use ionizing ...

3-Dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of the freely moving human eye

Jérôme Yerly, Silvio Ionta, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, David Zeugin, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Benedetta Franceschiello, Lorenzo Di Sopra

Eye motion is a major confound for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neuroscience or ophthalmology. Currently, solutions toward eye stabilisation include participants fixating or administration of paralytics/anaesthetics. We developed a novel MRI protoco ...

Adaptive phase correction of diffusion-weighted images

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Maxime Descoteaux, Marco Pizzolato

Phase correction (PC) is a preprocessing technique that exploits the phase of images acquired in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to obtain real-valued images containing tissue contrast with additive Gaussian noise, as opposed to magnitude images which fol ...
