为了确定最近提出的稳态磁共振成像(MRI)序列,“小尖端快速恢复”(STFR),是否可以用于脑功能成像。与现有的基于T2* 对比度和长回波时间(TE)的功能性MRI(fMRI)相比,STFR具有高分辨率成像的潜力,可减少B 0伪影,如几何失真、模糊或局部信号丢失。我们使用Monte Carlo Bloch模拟来计算BOLD和STFR在休息和激活期间的体素平均稳态信号。STFR依赖于一个定制的“尖上”射频(RF)脉冲,以使每个数据读出段后的自旋与纵轴对齐,在这里,我们使用针对运动皮层中的2D感兴趣区域(ROI)定制的尖上脉冲进行了体内STFR fMRI实验的概念验证。在多个受试者上进行实验以测试功能激活图的可靠性。布洛赫模拟预测一个可检测的功能信号,主要取决于内体素失相,只有微弱的自旋扩散。STFR产生类似的激活地图和信号变化的BOLD在手指敲击实验,并显示出可靠性BOLD。STFR可以产生功能对比(即使是短TE),并且是长TE(T2*)fMRI的潜在替代方案。功能对比度主要来自T2*-样退相和定制的尖端脉冲之间的相互作用,而不是来自自旋扩散。
To determine whether a recently-proposed steady-state magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence, “small-tip fast recovery” (STFR), can be used for functional brain imaging. Compared to existing functional MRI (fMRI) based on T2*-contrast and long echo time (TE), STFR has the potential for high-resolution imaging with reduced B0 artifacts such as geometric distortions, blurring, or local signal dropout. We used Monte Carlo Bloch simulations to calculate the voxel-averaged steady-state signal during rest and activation, for BOLD and STFR. STFR relies on a tailored “tip-up” radiofrequency (RF) pulse to align the spins with the longitudinal axis after each data readout segment, and here we performed proof-of-concept in vivo STFR fMRI experiments using a tip-up pulse tailored to a 2D region-of-interest (ROI) in motor cortex. Experiments were performed on multiple subjects to test reliability of the functional activation maps. Bloch simulations predict a detectable functional signal that depends mainly on intra-voxel dephasing, and only weakly on spin diffusion. STFR produces similar activation maps and signal change as BOLD in finger-tapping experiments, and shows reliability comparable to BOLD. STFR can produce functional contrast (even with short TE), and is a potential alternative to long-TE (T2*) fMRI. The functional contrast arises primarily from the interaction between T2*-like dephasing and the tailored tip-up pulse, and not from spin diffusion.
