Knee menisci segmentation and relaxometry of 3D ultrashort echo time cones MR imaging using attention U-Net with transfer learning. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
PurposeTo develop a deep learning-based method for knee menisci segmentation in 3D ultrashort echo time (UTE) cones MR imaging, and to automatically determine MR relaxation times, namely the T1, T1ρ , and T2∗ parameters, which can be used to assess knee ...

Ligamentization of the reconstructed ACL differs between the intraarticular and intraosseous regions: A quantitative assessment using UTE-T2* mapping.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to prospectively observe the trends of ultrashort echo time (UTE)-T2* values for the intraarticular and intraosseous regions of reconstructed anterior cruciate ligaments from 6 to 12 months after anterior cruciate ...

Design of a realistic PET-CT-MRI phantom [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The validation of the PET image quality of new PET-MRI systems should be done against the image quality of currently available PET-CT systems. This includes the validation of new attenuation correction methods.

A Useful Combination of Quantitative Ultrashort Echo Time MR Imaging and a Probing Device for Biomechanical Evaluation of Articular Cartilage

open access: yesBiosensors, 2021
In this study, we combined quantitative ultrashort echo time (UTE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and an investigation by a probing device with tri-axial force sensor to seek correlations with mechanical properties of human patellar cartilage for in ...

Ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI of the lung: Assessment of tissue density in the lung parenchyma [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2010
AbstractNonuniform disruption of lung architecture is usually assessed by CT, which carries potential radiation risk. Here we report our use of a three‐dimensional ultrashort echo time MR method to image the lungs of normal mice at different positive end‐expiratory pressures in a 3‐T clinical MR system.

MRI-based porosity index (PI) and suppression ratio (SR) in the tibial cortex show significant differences between normal, osteopenic, and osteoporotic female subjects

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionUltrashort echo time (UTE) MRI enables quantitative assessment of cortical bone. The signal ratio in dual-echo UTE imaging, known as porosity index (PI), as well as the signal ratio between UTE and inversion recovery UTE (IR-UTE) imaging ...
