  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 61, s. 300-318

    • The successful early diagnosis of brain tumors plays a major role in improving the treatment outcomes and thus improving patient survival. Manually evaluating the numerous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images produced routinely in the clinic is a difficult process. Thus, there is a crucial need for computer-aided methods with better accuracy for early tumor diagnosis. Computer-aided brain tumor diagnosis from MRI images consists of tumor detection, segmentation, and classification processes. Over the past few years, many studies have focused on traditional or classical machine learning techniques for brain tumor diagnosis. Recently, interest has developed in using deep learning techniques for diagnosing brain tumors with better accuracy and robustness. This study presents a comprehensive review of traditional machine learning techniques and evolving deep learning techniques for brain tumor diagnosis. This review paper identifies the key achievements reflected in the performance measurement metrics of the applied algorithms in the three diagnosis processes. In addition, this study discusses the key findings and draws attention to the lessons learned as a roadmap for future research.

  • MRI estimates of brown adipose tissue in children - Associations to adiposity, osteocalcin, and thigh muscle volume
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 58, s. 135-142

    • Context Brown adipose tissue is of metabolic interest. The tissue is however poorly explored in children. Methods: Sixty-three 7-year old subjects from the Swedish birth-cohort Halland Health and Growth Study were recruited. Care was taken to include both normal weight and overweight children, but the subjects were otherwise healthy. Only children born full term were included. Water-fat separated whole-body MRI scans, anthropometric measurements, and measurements of fasting glucose and levels of energy homeostasis related hormones, including the insulin-sensitizer osteocalcin, were performed. The fat fraction (FF) and effective transverse relaxation time (T-2(star)) of suspected brown adipose tissue in the cervical-supraclavicular-axillary fat depot (sBAT) and the FFs of abdominal visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) were measured. Volumes of sBAT, abdominal VAT and SAT, and thigh muscle volumes were measured. Results: The FF in the sBAT depot was lower than in VAT and SAT for all children. In linear correlations including sex and age as explanatory variables, sBAT FF correlated positively with all measures of adiposity (p < 0.01), except for VAT FF and weight, positively with sBAT T-2* (p = 0.036), and negatively with osteocalcin (p = 0.017). When adding measures of adiposity as explanatory variables, sBAT FF also correlated negatively with thigh muscle volume (p < 0.01). Conclusions: Whole-body water-fat MRI of children allows for measurements of sBAT. The FF of sBAT was lower than that of VAT and SAT, indicating presence of BAT. Future studies could confirm whether the observed correlations corresponds to a hormonally active BAT.

  • Water-fat separation incorporating spatial smoothing is robust to noise
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 50, s. 78-83

    • PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate a noise-robust method for reconstruction of water and fat images for spoiled gradient multi-echo sequences.METHODS: The proposed method performs water-fat separation by using a graph cut to minimize an energy function consisting of unary and binary terms. Spatial smoothing is incorporated to increase robustness to noise. The graph cut can fail to find a solution covering the entire image, in which case the relative weighting of the unary term is iteratively increased until a complete solution is found. The proposed method was compared to two previously published methods. Reconstructions were performed on 16 cases taken from the 2012 ISMRM water-fat reconstruction challenge dataset, for which reference reconstructions were provided. Robustness towards noise was evaluated by reconstructing images with different levels of noise added. The percentage of water-fat swaps were calculated to measure performance.RESULTS: At low noise levels the proposed method produced similar results to one of the previously published methods, while outperforming the other. The proposed method significantly outperformed both of the previously published methods at moderate and high noise levels.CONCLUSION: By incorporating spatial smoothing, an increased robustness towards noise is achieved when performing water-fat reconstruction of spoiled gradient multi-echo sequences.

  • Pre-transplantation ³¹P-magnetic resonance spectroscopy for quality assessment of human pancreatic grafts : A feasibility study
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 39, s. 98-102
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Objective: To investigate the feasibility of using (31)P-MRS for objective non-invasive quality assessment of human pancreas grafts prior to transplantation or islet isolation.Materials and methods: Pancreata from 5 human donors, 3 males and 2 females, aged 49-78years, with body mass index (BMI) 22-31kg/m(2), were included. Pancreata were perfused with histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate solution during procurement and stored in hypothermic condition (4°C) for 21-44h. During the period of hypothermic storage repeated spectra were obtained for each graft by (31)P-MRS (1.5Tesla) to measure the cold ischemia time (CIT) dependent changes of the phosphorous metabolites adenosine triphosphate (ATP), phosphomonoesters (PME), phosphodiesters (PDE) and inorganic phosphate (Pi), in the grafts. Graft temperature was measured immediately before and after MR-examination. Reference spectrum for non-viable tissue was obtained after graft exposure to room temperature.Results: PME/Pi, PDE/Pi and ATP/Pi spectral intensities ratios decreased with increasing CIT, reflecting the decreased viability of the grafts. PME/Pi ratio was the most discriminatory variable at prolonged CIT. (31)P-MRS could be performed without significantly increasing graft temperature.Conclusions: (31)P-MRS may provide quantitative parameters for evaluating graft viability ex vivo, and is a promising tool for objective non-invasive assessment of the quality of human pancreas grafts prior to transplantation or islet isolation.

  • Fixed volume particle trace emission for the analysis of left atrial blood flow using 4D Flow MRI
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 47, s. 83-88

    • 4D Flow MRI has been used to quantify normal and deranged left ventricular blood flow characteristics on the basis of functionally distinct flow components. However, the application of this technique to the atria is challenging due to the presence of continuous inflow. This continuous inflow necessitates plane-based emission of particle traces from the inlet veins, leading to particles that represents different amounts of blood, and related quantification errors. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel fixed-volume approach for particle tracing and employ this method to develop quantitative analysis of 4D blood flow characteristics in the left atrium. 4D Flow MRI data were acquired during free-breathing using a navigator-gated gradient-echo sequence in three volunteers at 1.5 T. Fixed-volume particle traces emitted from the pulmonary veins were used to visualize left atrial blood flow and to quantitatively separate the flow into two functionally distinct flow components: Direct flow = particle traces that enter and leave the atrium in one heartbeat, Retained flow = particle traces that enter the atrium and remains there for one cardiac cycle. Flow visualization based on fixed-volume traces revealed that, beginning in early ventricular systole, flow enters the atrium and engages with residual blood volume to form a vortex. In early diastole during early ventricular filling, the organized vortical flow is extinguished, followed by formation of a second transient atrial vortex. Finally, in late diastole during atrial contraction, a second acceleration of blood into the ventricle is seen. The direct and retained left atrial flow components were between 44 and 57% and 43-56% of the stroke volume, respectively. In conclusion, fixed volume particle tracing permits separation of left atrial blood flow into different components based on the transit of blood through the atrium.

  • Can transverse relaxation rates in deep gray matter be approximated from functional and T-2-weighted FLAIR scans for relative brain iron quantification?
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 40, s. 75-82

    • Alterations in iron concentration in certain deep gray matter regions are known to occur in aging and several clinical conditions. In vivo measurements of R-2* transverse relaxation rates and quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) have been shown to be strongly correlated with iron concentration in tissue, but their calculation requires the acquisition of a multi-echo gradient recalled echo sequence (MGRE). In the current study, we examined the feasibility of approximating R-2* rates using metrics derived from fMRI-EPI and T-2-weighted FLAIR images, which are widely available. In a sample of 40 healthy subjects, we obtained these metrics (v(EPI) and v(FLAIR)), as well as R-2* rates and QSM estimates, and found significant correlations between v(EPI) and v(FLAIR) and R-2* rates in several subcortical gray matter regions known to accumulate iron, but not in a control corticospinal white matter region. These relationships were preserved after referencing v(EPI) and v(FLAIR) with respect to the values in the control region. Effect sizes (above 0.5 for some of the regions, particularly the largest ones) were calculated and put in relation to those of the correlation between QSM and R-2* rates. We propose that the metrics described here may be applied, possibly in a retrospective fashion, to analyze datasets with available EPI or T-2-weighted FLAIR scans (and lacking a MGRE sequence), to devise new hypotheses regarding links between iron concentration in brain tissue and other variables of interest.

  • 4D Flow MRI quantification of blood flow patterns, turbulence and pressure drop in normal and stenotic prosthetic heart valves
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC. - 0730-725X .- 1873-5894. ; 55, s. 118-127
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Purpose: To assess valvular flow characteristics and pressure drop in a variety of normal and stenotic prosthetic heart valves (PHVs) using 4D Flow MRI. Materials and methods: In-vitro flow phantoms with four different PHVs were studied: Medtronic-Hall tilting disc, St. Jude Medical standard bileaflet (STJM), Medtronic CoreValve Evolut R and Edwards SAPIEN 3. The valvular flow characteristics were investigated in normal and stenotic PHVs by using 4D Flow MRI. Results: The results showed that each valve provided a different amount of signal loss in the 4D Flow MRI. The defect size of the signal loss from each valve was 37.5 mm, 39.0 mm, 37.5 mm and 51.0 mm for the Tilting disk, STJM, SAPIEN 3 and CoreValve, respectively. The 4D Flow MRI-based estimation of the elevation of the pressure drop through the stenotic PHV using both Bernoulli-based and turbulence-based methods correlated well with the true values for the Tilting disc, STJM and SAPIEN 3 valve. However, the obstructive hemodynamics in the stenotic CoreValve was not clearly identified due to the large signal void from the long struts, resulting in a severe underestimation of the pressure drop using 4D Flow MRI. Conclusion: The Tilting disc, STJM and SAPIEN 3 valves provided reasonable estimates of peak velocity, turbulence production and the corresponding pressure drop. In contrast, the large strut of the CoreValve and corresponding signal void prevented accurate measurements of the velocity and turbulence production; therefore, 4D Flow MRI prediction of the pressure drop through the CoreValve was not feasible.
