Abstract: The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10) positioned in an examination volume of a MR device (1). It is an object of the invention to enable fast spiral MR imaging with a defined T2 contrast. The method of the invention comprises the following steps: - generating a number of spin echoes by subjecting the object (10) to one or 5 more shots of an imaging sequence, each shot comprising an RF excitation pulse (21) followed by a number of RF refocusing pulses (22), wherein modulated readout magnetic field gradients (23, 24) are applied in each interval between successive RF refocusing pulses (22), - acquiring MR signal data, wherein each spin echo is recorded along a spiral trajectory (31-33, 41-43) in k-space which winds around the k-space origin with varying radial distance, wherein the trajectory (31, 41) of at least one spin echo has a different rate of variation of the radial distance at least in a central k-space region compared to the trajectories (32, 33, 42, 43) of the other spin echoes, and - reconstructing an MR image from the acquired MR signal data. Moreover, the invention relates to an MR device (1) and to a computer program for an MR device (1).

Abstract: A method for quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) includes [800] performing an MRI scan using a conventional pulse sequence to obtain a qualitative MR image; and [802] applying the qualitative MR image as input to a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to produce a quantitative magnetic resonance (MR) relaxation parametric map. The qualitative MR image is the only image input to the deep neural network to produce the quantitative MR relaxation parametric map. The conventional pulse sequence may be a Spoiled Gradient Echo sequence, a Fast Spin Echo sequence, a Steady-State Free Precession sequence, or other sequence that is commonly used in current clinical practice.

Abstract: Techniques measuring post contrast phase include collecting 3D medical imagery of a subject after injection with a contrast agent. A first set of slices is obtained in which each includes a first anatomical feature selected from a portal vein, aorta, inferior vena cava, liver, spleen or renal cortex. A second set of slices is obtained in which each includes a different second anatomical feature. A first image region is obtained from the first set and a different second image region from the second set. A trained convolutional neural network is configured to input the first image region to a first plurality of convolutional hidden layers and the second image region to a second plurality of convolutional hidden layers and output from both to a fully connected hidden layer that outputs a post contrast phase. Output data is presented based on the post contrast phase.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10). It is an object of the invention to enable MR imaging in the presence of motion of the imaged object, wherein full use is made of the acquired MR signal and a high-quality MR image essentially free from motion artefacts is obtained. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: generating MR signals by subjecting the object (10) to an imaging sequence comprising RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients; acquiring the MR signals as signal data over a given period of time (T); subdividing the period of time into a number of successive time segments (SO, S1, S2,... Sn); deriving a geometric transformation (DVF1, DVF2,... DVFn) in image space for each pair of consecutive time segments (S0, S1, S2,... Sn), which geometric transformation (DVF1, DVF2,... DVFn) reflects motion occurring between the two time segments of the respective pair; and reconstructing an MR image from the signal data, wherein a motion compensation is applied according to the derived geometric transformations (DVF1, DVF2,... DVFn). Moreover, the invention relates to an MR device (1) and to a computer program for an MR device (1).

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing image guidance for motion tracking and compensation in magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI") guided therapies, such as MRI- guided radiation therapies using an MR-linac or other MRI -guided radiation therapy system, are described. Simultaneous orthogonal plane imaging ("SOPI") is used to acquire images from a first slice that remains static throughout the acquisition, and from a plurality of slices that are orthogonal to the first slice. This first slice can be referred to in some instances as a "tracking" or "navigator" slice, and the plurality of slices that are orthogonal to the first slice can be referred to as "imaging" slices. The tracking slice images can be used to estimate motion of the subject that occurred during the data acquisition, and to track the position of targets (e.g., anatomical targets) during the delivery of radiation treatment.
