Evaluation of B1 inhomogeneity effect on DCE-MRI data analysis of brain tumor patients at 3T

Evaluation of B1 inhomogeneity effect on DCE-MRI data analysis of brain tumor patients at 3T

Abstract Background Dynamic-contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI data acquired using gradient echo based sequences is affected by errors in flip angle (FA) due to transmit B1 inhomogeneity (B1inh). The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of B1inh on quantitative analysis of DCE-MRI data of human...
