T1 Mapping in Python?
I'm trying to write a simple program to perform T1 mapping of a few MRI Images.
My understanding is that all I need is to plot the pixel intensity values by inversion time then fit a curve. The output ...

Adding noise to real MRI data
I designed an algorithm for MRI data denoising which has good properties under heavy Rician noise (sigma is greater than 80). The method was tested on some phantoms and Rician noise generators. Now I ...

Why do we not encode frequency in 3 dimensions in MRI?
If I understand correctly, to select a particular slice (of an object, during an MRI scan) that is orthogonal to the direction of the main magnetic field applied, we apply a magnetic field that varies ...

Will the phase of the reconstructed data using a single MRI k-space point show any curvature?
Some courses tell that each point in k-space (spatial-frequency domain) represents a certain stripe pattern in spatial domain.

From Fourier (k space) to wavelet domain in MRI sensing
In compressed sensing MRI (cSENSE MRI) technology the idea seems to entail sampling from the Fourier domain (k space) in a way that, when transformed to the wavelet domain ("sparsification"), the ...

Question about MRI signal construction
As I understand it, in MRI, a line in k-space is usually acquired while the readout gradient is applied. So during the application of this gradient the protons spin at different frequencies along the ...

Effect on T1 relaxation due to the application of the gradient
In MRI, the T1 relaxation constant for a tissue type is defined as the time taken for the longitudinal relaxation to recover approximately to 63% of its initial value.
Is there any modification of ...
