PURPOSE: The appropriate object thickness to start using anti-scatter grids (grids) has not sufficiently investigated in previous studies, and thus we rigorously investigated the effectiveness of two generally used grids with grid ratios of 6 and ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Parkinson disease is related to neurodegeneration and iron deposition in the substantia nigra pars compacta and nigrosome 1. However, visualization of nigrosome 1 via MR imaging is poor owing to the bilateral asymmetry, reg...

To mitigate the susceptibility inhomogeneity induced by radio-frequency transmit phase error through the whole brain in quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) using single-echo gradient echo sequence, we developed a novel single-step QSM recons...
