A diffusion‐prepared reduced FOV sequence for prostate MRI near metallic implants
Acquisition of distortionless diffusion weighted images of the prostate is feasible in patients with total hip replacements on conventional, whole-body 3T MRI, using a b-value of 800 <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:semantics> <mml:mrow> <mml:msup><mml:mrow><mml:mi>s</mml:mi> <mml:mo>/</mml:mo> <mml:mi>mm</mml:mi></mml:mrow> <mml:mrow><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:mrow> </mml:msup> </mml:mrow> <mml:annotation>$$ \mathrm{s}/{\mathrm{mm}}^2 $$</mml:annotation></mml:semantics> </mml:math> and nominal resolution of 1.7 <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:semantics><mml:mrow><mml:mo>×</mml:mo></mml:mrow> <mml:annotation>$$ \times $$</mml:annotation></mml:semantics> </mml:math> 1.7 <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:semantics><mml:mrow><mml:mo>×</mml:mo></mml:mrow> <mml:annotation>$$ \times $$</mml:annotation></mml:semantics> </mml:math> 4 mm<sup>3</sup> in scan times of 6 min.
