3 MR Active Nuclei Nuclei that aligns its axis to a magnetic field. They do this because of electromagnetic induction: Angular momentum or spin. Posses an electrical charge (+) If two of these characteristics are present it induces the third - magnetism Called a magnetic moment 3

42 Pulse Sequence Diagrams These diagrams show the relation of the 3 gradients (slice,freq, and phase) to the signal formation. 42
43 Pulse Sequence Diagrams 43
44 Reading a Pulse Diagram: Spinecho revisited The timing diagram for a spinecho imaging sequence has entries for the RF pulses, the gradients in the magnetic field, and the signal. A slice selective 90 o RF pulse is applied in conjunction with a slice selection gradient. A period of time equal to TE/2 elapses and a 180 o slice selective 180 o pulse is applied in conjunction with the slice selection gradient.. ignored 44
45 Reading a Pulse Diagram: Spinecho revisited A phase encoding gradient is applied between the 90 o and 180 o pulses. As in the previous imaging sequences, the phase encoding gradient is varied in 128 or 256 steps between G m and -G m. The phase encoding gradient could be applied after the 180 o pulse, however if we want to minimize the TE period the pulse is applied between the 90 o and 180 o RF pulses. ignored 45
46 Reading a Pulse Diagram: Spinecho revisited The frequency encoding gradient is applied after the 180 o pulse during the time that echo is collected. The recorded signal is the echo. The FID, which is found after every 90 o pulse, is not used. One additional gradient is applied between the 90 o and 180 o pulses. This gradient is along the same direction as the frequency encoding gradient. It dephases the spins so that they will rephase by the center of the echo. This gradient in effect prepares the signal to be at the edge of k-space by the start of the acquisition of the echo. ignored 46

53 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Magnetic Isocenter. 53
54 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Slice selecting gradients. Axial Sagittal Coronal 54
55 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Slice selecting gradient (slice thickness). Steep slope = narrow transmit bandwidth (thin slice). Shallow slope = broad transmit bandwidth (thick slice). 55
56 Slice thickness and location 56
57 Changing slice thickness and location with the gradient. 57
58 Changing slice thickness and location with the pulse 58
59 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Slice selecting gradient (cont.) A slice can be selectively excited by transmitting RF with a and of frequencies coinciding wih the Larmor frequencies of spins in a particular slice defined by the slice select gradient. 59
60 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Frequency encoding gradient (long axis of body part). The frequency encoding gradient is switched on when the signal is received and is often called the readout gradient. The echo is centered in the middle of the frequency encoding gradient. The steepness of the slope of the frequency encoding gradient determines the size of the anatomy covered along the frequency encoding axis during the scan. This is called the field of view (FOV). 60
61 Spatial Localization (image encoding) Phase encoding gradient (short axis of body part). Small phase shift = shallow gradient. Large phase shift = steep gradient. 61

67 SAR and FDA Guidelines -Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Tissue heating and the body s ability to dissipate excess heat. -Measured in Watts/Kg FDA: -Updated July 2004: 0.4 W/kg whole body 3.2 W/kg head 8.0 W/kg small volume 67
68 Time-Varying Magnetic Field (TVMF) Safety Consider electrical conductivity (Faraday s law of induction) and not just ferromagnetic properties. Scalp burn from a cervical halo 68
69 External Magnet Field Strength Remember safety considerations are different depending on field strength. ALWAYS double and triple check for safety! 69
70 Gd-DTPA (Gad + Chelate) Gadolinium + DiethyleneTriaminePentaAcetic acid-chelate The gadolinium chelates are 100% renally excreted, with the exception of two agents with combined renal and hepatobiliary excretion(multihance and Primovist) 70
71 Relaxivity The ability of magnetic compounds to increase the relaxation rates of the surrounding water proton spins. 71
72 Relaxivity How does it work? T1-relaxation is dependent on the molecular tumbling rate. (T1 weighted exams) The gadolinium molecule is a big tumbling magnet The slower a molecule tumbles, the shorter the T1-relaxation time of the hydrogen molecule (the greater the relaxation rate). 72
73 Relaxivity How does it work? When the gadolinium molecule gets next to the water molecule, it effects the rate at which the water molecule tumbles, slowing it down. 73
74 Efficacy The gadolinium chelates currently available for clinical use can be differentiated on the basis of: charge (ionic or nonionic) structure (linear or cyclic) stability 74
75 Charge (Ionicity) Given that the gadolinium ion carries a 3 charge, if the ligand, for example, is HPDO3A (that for ProHance, with a charge of 3), the metal chelate itself will carry a net charge of zero, and thus be nonionic. In the U.S. market, considering only the gadolinium chelates with 100% renal excretion, there are three nonionic agents (ProHance, Omniscan, and Optimark) and one ionic agent (Magnevist). 75
76 Structure (Linear or Cyclic) The structure of the chelate can be linear or macrocyclic (ring-like), with the cyclic chelates demonstrating higher in vivo stability and thus an improved safety margin. ProHance is the only macrocyclic chelate available in the United States. Internationally, two other extracellular gadolinium chelates are in widespread use, both macrocyclic: Dotarem (ionic) and Gadovist (nonionic). 76
77 MRI Contrast Agents 77
78 Stability Stability is related to structure of the chelate. Gadolinium Chelates differ in their thermodynamic stability constants and their kinetic stability. Macrocyclic chelates are more stable than linear molecules. Even among linear agents there are differences in stabilty. Fundam. Clin. Pharmacol Dec: 20 (6):
79 Osmolality Osmotic (Ion) concentration. An indicator of fluid balance in the bodies tissues. The term "osmolal" describes an ion concentration of a solution in moles per kilogram of solvent (mol/kg), while "osmolar" describes an ion concentration in moles per liter (mol/l). mosm = milliosmole 79
80 Contrast Agents 80
81 Low osmolar contrast media (LOCM) are less nephrotoxic than high osomolar contrast media (HOCM). 81
82 Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NFS) Development of the disease is due to gadolinium chelate dissociation, with deposition of the free metal, and is thus related to chelate stability, dose, and cumulative (lifetime) dose. 82
83 Pregnancy 83
84 Artifacts Motion (types) Susceptibility Chemical Shift Wrap Around Partial Volume Gibbs Zebra Zipper Cross-Excitation 84
85 Artifacts 85
86 Chemical Shift This is due to the precessional differences in fat and water (fat has a lower precessional frequency than water). This difference is 220 Hz in a 1.5T magnet. It is worse in higher field strength magnets. It creates a dark band at the interfaces of water and fat. It occurs in the frequency direction. 86
87 87
88 Partial Volume Averaging 88
89 Magnetic susceptibility artifact The ability of a substance to become magnetized. (metal and hemosiderin) The differences in these substances with the surrounding tissues results in different precessional frequencies. It occurs in the frequency direction. More obvious in gradient echo sequences. 89
90 Magnetic Susceptibility Artifacts (Understanding MRI) 90
91 Image Artifacts: Magnetic Susceptibility 91
92 Image Artifacts: Aliasing: Anatomy that is bigger than the FOV will wrap back into itself if anti-aliasing techniques are not used. 92
93 Phase Wrap Artifact 93
94 Phase Mismapping Artifact 94
95 Image Artifacts: Zipper: RF leak in the room. Caused by doors (sticky fingers), holes in the wall (nails, screws), door open while scanning, and pipes from air gases or water. 95
