Quantitative Brain Perfusion MRI Protocol

MRI scans were performed on a MAGNETOM Skyra 3T scanner, configured with 20 channel receiver head coils (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). Fifty T2*-weighted gradient-echo echo planar imaging (EPI) volumes were acquired. Two repetitions were performed before a bolus injection of gadolinium-DTPA (Gd-DTPA, 0.2 ml/kg, administered at 5 ml/sec), and 48 repetitions were performed after injection of Gd-DTPA. Sequence parameters were TR: 2,300 ms; TE: 40 ms; flip angle: 30°; voxel size: 1.8 x1.8, matrix: 128 x 128; number of slices: 25; and slice thickness: 3.9 mm. Pre-processing of the perfusion MRI data was preformed using SPM software (version 12, UCL, London, UK) and included motion correction, and co-registration with MPRAGE T1 images. Individual gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) segmentation of T1 anatomy was also performed to extract mean perfusion values. Whole-brain quantitative perfusion analysis was done as described [102 (link), 103 (link)]. CBF values were normalized.

MRI scans were performed on a MAGNETOM Skyra 3T scanner, configured with20-channel receiver head coils (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). The MRI protocol included dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC), and post-contrast high-resolution MPRAGE 3D T1-weighted images.
MRI sequences parameters:
DSC: Fifty T2*-weighted gradient-echo echo planar imaging (EPI) volumes were acquired, two repetitions before a bolus injection of gadolinium-DTPA (Gd-DTPA, 0.2 ml/kg, administered at 5 ml/sec), 48 repetitions after injection of Gd-DTPA. Sequence parameters: TR: 2,300 ms, TE: 40ms, flip angle: 30°, voxel size :1.8 x1.8, matrix: 128x128, number of slices: 25, and slice thickness = 3.9 mm.
MPRAGE3D: was acquired in sagittal orientation with 0.9 mm isotropic resolution. Sequence parameters: TR: 2,000 ms, TE: 2.41 ms, flip angle: 8°, TI: 928 ms, FOV: 245 x 245, and 192 contiguous slices.

Multimodal Brain Imaging Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Brain imaging MRI scans were performed on a MAGNETOM Skyra 3 T scanner, configured with 20-channel receiver head coils (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). The MRI protocol included T2-weighted, 3D fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR), susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI), pre- and post-contrast high-resolution MPRAGE 3D T1-weighted, and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).

Whole brain diffusion weighted images were acquired with the following parameters: 50 axial slices, slice thickness = 2.2 mm, voxel size = 1.5 × 1.5 mm, TR = 9300 ms, TE = 91 ms, and matrix = 128 × 128 mm. Diffusion gradients were applied along 30 noncollinear directions (b = 1000 s/mm2), and one volume without diffusion weighting.

Preprocessing of DTI images was preformed using the SPM software (version 12, UCL, London, UK) and included motion correction, co-registration with MPRAGE T1 images, spatial normalization, and spatial smoothing with kernel size of 6 mm full width half maximum (FWHM). Diffusion brain volume denoising was performed using the joint anisotropic LMMSE filter for stationary rician noise removal77 (link) and calculation of DTI-FA (fractional anisotropy) and MD (mean diffusivity) maps were performed using in house software written in MATLAB R2021b (MathWorks, Natick, MA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
