A high spatial resolution in vivo 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging technique for the human breast at 3T.
Abstract
PURPOSE: The technical challenges that have prevented routine proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (1H MRSI) examinations of the breast include insufficient spatial resolution, increased difficulties in shimming compared to the brain, and strong lipid contamination at short echo time (TE) at1.5T. The authors investigated the feasibility of high spatial resolution 1H MRSI of human breast cancer in a clinical setting at 3T. METHODS: …
