Ultrashort echo time MRI of pulmonary water content: assessment in a sponge phantom at 1.5 and 3.0 Tesla
PURPOSEWe aimed to develop a predictive model for lung water content using ultrashort echo time (UTE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a sponge phantom. MATERIALS AND METHODSImage quality was preliminarily optimized, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of UTE was compared with that obtained from...
