Comparing magnetic resonance liver fat fraction measurements with histology in fibrosis: the difference between proton density fat fraction and tissue mass fat fraction (2022)
Journal Article

Objective: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) provides a powerful method of measuring fat fraction. However, previous studies have shown that MRS results give lower values compared with visual estimates from biopsies in fibrotic livers. This study...

The relationship between Central Nervous System morphometry changes and key symptoms in Crohn’s disease (2022)
Journal Article

Alterations in grey matter volume (GMV) and cortical thickness (CT) in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients has been previously documented. However, the findings are inconsistent, and not a true representation of CD burden, as only CD patients in remission...

Improved Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI Using Low Rank with Joint Sparsity (2022)
Journal Article

This work presents a free-breathing dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI reconstruction method called low-rank plus sparse (L+S) with joint sparsity. The proposed method improved dynamic contrast performance by integrating an additional temporal Fast... Read More about Improved Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI Using Low Rank with Joint Sparsity.

Ensemble Kalman inversion for magnetic resonance elastography. (2022)
Journal Article

Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) is an MRI-based diagnostic method for measuring mechanical properties of biological tissues. MRE measurements are processed by an inversion algorithm to produce a map of the biomechanical properties. In this pape...

Variability of noninvasive MRI and biological markers in compensated cirrhosis: insights for assessing disease progression (2022)
Journal Article

Abstract: Background: We annually monitored stable compensated cirrhosis (CC) patients to evaluate serial variation in blood serum, liver stiffness, and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) measures to provide reference change values (R...

Fast Event-Related Mapping of Population Fingertip Tuning Properties in Human Sensorimotor Cortex at 7T (2022)
Journal Article

fMRI studies that investigate somatotopic tactile representations in the human cortex typically use either block or phase-encoded stimulation designs. Event-related (ER) designs allow for more flexible and unpredictable stimulation sequences than the...

Decreased renal perfusion during acute kidney injury in critical COVID-19 assessed by magnetic resonance imaging: a prospective case control study (2022)
Journal Article

Abstract: Background: Renal hypoperfusion has been suggested to contribute to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critical COVID-19. However, limited data exist to support this. We aim to investigate the differences in renal perfusion, ox...

LMISA: A Lightweight Multi-modality Image Segmentation Network via Domain Adaptation using Gradient Magnitude and Shape Constraint (2022)
Journal Article

In medical image segmentation, supervised machine learning models trained using one image modality (e.g. computed tomography (CT)) are often prone to failure when applied to another image modality (e.g. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) even for the...

Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging allows non-invasive functional and structural evaluation of diabetic kidney disease (2022)
Journal Article

Background: We sought to develop a novel non-contrast multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) protocol employing several complementary techniques in a single scan session for a comprehensive functional and structural evaluation of diabetic kidney disease (DKD)....
