  8. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Goal: Highly detailed anatomical images What Does It Do? Applications Used to distinguish pathological tissue from normal tissue Comparable resolution, much better contrast resolution (between arbitrarily different but not identical tissues) than CT Advantages Harmless to patient What it uses Strong magnetic fields Non-ionizing radiation • Strong magnetic field is applied, causing the nuclei within the patient’s body to rotate and align • Scanner detects, records, and combines the different rotating fields into a single image • Gradients in all directions are combined to create a 3D image • Strong contrast between different soft tissues within body • Better at producing images of brain, muscles, heart, cancers than CT or x-rays

  9. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Terminology Parameters of Image Acquisition Edema Abnormal accumulation of fluid beneath the skin or in cavities of the body Caused by increased secretion of fluid into the interstitium or impaired removal of fluid • TE = echo time • TR = repetition time • TI = inversion time • Time between inversion and excitation pulses

  10. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Basic Scans T1-weighted MRI scan T2-weighted MRI scan Highlights fluids Fat = dark; water = light Good for imaging edema Heavily used for clinical scans of cerebral spinal fluid Long TE; long TR • Highlights fat deposits • Water = dark; fat = bright • Good grey v. white matter contrast • Commonly run clinical scan • Short TE; short TR T2*-weighted MRI scan Spin density weighted MRI scan • Gradient Echo (GRE) sequence • Additional loss over T2 decay • Air/tissue boundaries susceptible • Increases contrast of specific tissues • Long TE; long TR • No contrast from either T1 or T2 decay • Uses spin echo (sometimes gradient echo) sequences • Short TE; long TR

  11. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Specialized Scans Diffusion MRI scan Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) Inversion-recovery pulse sequence that nulls fluid signals Free water = dark; edematous tissue = bright Most sensitive way to evaluate brain for demyelinating diseases Carefully-selected TI allows signal from any particular tissue to be suppressed Conversion of T2-weighted sequence via additional radio frequency pulse and manipulation of magnetic gradients • Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) enables diffusion to be measured in multiple directions • Make brain maps of fiber directions • Examine connectivity of different regions of brain • Examine areas of neural degeneration and demyelination Functional MRI (fMRI) • Measures signal changes in the brain due to changing neural activity • Low resolution, rapid rate scans • BOLD (Blood-Oxygen-Level Dependent) effect • Increases in neural activity cause changes in MR signals via T2* changes • Increased neural activity increases demand for oxygen • Vascular system overcompensated, increasing oxygenated hemoglobin • High resolution 3D maps of venous vasculature within neural tissue Real-Time MRI • Continuous monitoring ("filming") of moving objects in real time • Should help provide information about diseases of the joints and heart • May make MRI examinations easier and more comfortable for patients

  12. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Medical Applications Interventional Therapy Radiation Therapy Simulation MRIs used to specifically locate tumors within body in preparation for radiation therapy treatments Patient placed in specific, reproducible, body position and scanned MRI system computes precise location, shape and orientation of the tumor mass, correcting for spatial distortion inherent in the system Patient is marked/tattooed with points that, when viewed in specified, reproducible body position, permit precise triangulation for radiation therapy • MRI images used to guide minimally invasive procedures both intraoperatively and interactively • No ferromagnetic instruments used • Some specialized systems allow imaging concurrent with surgery • Usually, surgical procedure is temporarily interrupted so MR images can be acquired to verify success/guide subsequent surgical work

  13. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) What is MRI Compatibility? Safety Concerns Radio frequency energy Powerful radio transmitter can heat the body to the point of risk of hyperthermia in patients Peripheral Nerve Stimulation Rapid switching on and off of the magnetic field gradients may cause nerve stimulation Acoustic noise Appropriate ear protection is necessary for anyone inside MRI scanner room during examination Cryogens Cryogenic (extremely cold) liquids enable superconducting capabilities of the electromagnetic coils MRI support rooms should be equipped with pressure relief mechanisms and an exhaust fan in case of a quench (shut-down of superconduction electromagnet) Pregnancy Increasingly important for diagnosing and monitoring congenital defects of the fetus (no contrast agents used) Fetal tumors (primarily teratomas) Facilitating open fetal surgery Other fetal interventions Planning to safely deliver and treat babies whose defects would otherwise be fatal • MR-Safe = device or implant that is completely non-magnetic, non-electrically conductive, and non-RF reactive • Titanium and its alloys • MR-Conditional = device that is safe, provided the safety conditions are defined and observed • MR-Unsafe = objects that are significantly ferromagnetic and pose a clear and direct threat to persons and equipment within the magnet room • Patients always asked for complete information about all implants prior to entering the MRI suite

  18. Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) Goal: Precise localization of metabolic functions What Does It Do? How Does It Work? Patient fasts for 4 hours or more Intravenous bolus (tracer) injected patient's arm 1-2 hours later, patient placed into PET-CT, usually with arms at the sides or above the head Automatic bed moves head first into the gantry, first obtaining a topogram (whole body flat sagittal section) Operator uses PET-CT console to identify patient and examination, selects the scanning parameters and starts image acquisition period Patient automatically moved head-first into CT gantry, where x-ray tomogram is acquired Patient automatically moved through PET gantry, parallel to CT gantry; PET slices acquired Software reconstructs/aligs PET and CT images Whole body scan (mid-thigh to top of head) takes 5-40 min • Hybrid modality of PET and x-ray CT • Takes both types of images sequentially, in the same session • Images can be combined into a single 2D or 3D superposed image • Detecting changes in molecular activity: • Reveal primary tumors • Detect metastases • Quantify uptake • Improves accuracy in oncology, surgical planning, radiation therapy, cancer staging • Increased image quality, speed, and accuracy of diagnosis

  19. Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) Positron Emission Tomography X-ray Computed Tomography Uses computer processed tomography to generate 3D images from a collection of 2D x-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation Tomography = imaging by sections Supplements x-rays and medical ultrasonaography Used in preventative/screening medicine • Uses radionucleotide decay to generate 3D image of functional processes in the body • Detects gamma rays emitted by a positron-emitting radionucleotide ("tracer") • Tracer enters patient's body via a biologically active molecule • FDG is a tracer used to display metabolic activity of tissue in terms of regional glucose uptake • Computer analyzes location/concentration of tracer within patient to construct 3D images • TIME Magazine declared PET-CT "Medical Invention of the Year" in 2000
