摘要
目的:比较12通道柔性头线圈(HFC12)与商用16通道(HRC16)和24通道(HRC24)刚性线圈的性能。方法:用HFC12、HRC16和HRC24在1.5 T MR扫描仪上进行幻像研究。测量T1WI、T2WI和弥散加权成像(DWI)的信噪比和噪声相关矩阵。根据信噪比创建信噪比配置文件。此外,还计算了不同加速度方向下的1/g因子。在体内研究中,对一名健康志愿者使用三种不同的线圈进行T1WI、T2WI和DWI检查。测量信噪比和噪声相关矩阵。结果:在幻影研究和活体研究中,HFC12在横切面、矢状面和冠状面信噪比最高,HRC24次之,HRC16最低。信噪比曲线显示,HFC12边缘的信噪比最高。HFC12的噪声相关矩阵均值最高。1/g因子结果表明,当折减因子为2时,HFC12在头-脚加速方向的加速能力最佳。除枕叶皮质外,HFC12在大部分皮质区的信噪比均显著高于HRC16和HRC24。HRC24在枕叶皮层的信噪比高于HFC12。结论:HFC12在T1WI、T2WI和DWI中的信噪比优于HRC24和HFC16。HFC12在皮层的信噪比显著高于商用硬头线圈,但在枕叶皮层除外。
Performance of a Flexible 12-Channel Head Coil in Comparison to Commercial 16- And 24-Channel Rigid Head Coils.
Purpose: To compare the performance of a 12-channel flexible head coil (HFC12) with commercial 16-channel (HRC16) and 24-channel (HRC24) rigid coils.
Methods: The phantom study was performed on a 1.5 T MR scanner with HFC12, HRC16, and HRC24. The SNR and noise correlation matrix of T1WI, T2WI, and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) were measured. The SNR profiles were created according to the SNR. In addition, 1/g-factors were calculated in different acceleration directions. In the in vivo study, T1WI, T2WI, and DWI were performed in one healthy volunteer with three different coils. The SNR and noise correlation matrix were measured.
Results: In the phantom study and in vivo study, the SNR of HFC12 in the transverse, sagittal, and coronal planes was the highest, followed by HRC24, and that of HRC16 was the lowest. The SNR profiles showed that the SNR at the edge of HFC12 was the highest. The mean value of the noise correlation matrix of HFC12 was the highest. The 1/g-factor results showed that HFC12 obtained the best acceleration ability in the head-foot acceleration direction when the reduction factor was set to two. The SNR of HFC12 in most cortices was significantly higher than that of HRC16 and HRC24, except in the occipital cortex. The SNR of HRC24 in the occipital cortex was higher than that of HFC12.
Conclusion: The SNR of HFC12 in T1WI, T2WI, and DWI was better than that of the HRC24 and HFC16. The SNR of HFC12 in the cortex was significantly higher than that of the commercial rigid head coil, except in the occipital cortex.
