Purpose: The objective of this study was to quantitatively evaluate and compare the image contrast and image quality of several recently developed CT-like images (oZTEo, LAVA, MERGE).
Methods: Using a self-made phantom created with a GE Healthcare (Milwaukee, WI, USA) MRI Pioneer 3.0T and pig leg bone, along with four types of tissue-mimicking phantoms, we compared cortical bone, contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), signal change ratio of the tissue-simulating phantom, and visual evaluation.
Results: CR and CNR were lowest in the order of MERGE, LAVA, and oZTEo. The signal change ratio of background signal and visual evaluation were highest in the order of oZTEo, LAVA, and MERGE.
Conclusion: In comparing CT-like images using MRI, the bone cortex could be visualized in white using black-and-white inversion in all CT-like images, and fracture lines could also be visualized. By capturing CT-like images tailored to the characteristics of each imaging sequence, it is expected that the number of examinations that can be completed using MRI alone will increase, further enhancing the usefulness of MRI.
