Magnetic Resonance Elastography simulation with an Object Oriented Development Interface for NMR
Résumé
Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE): non-invasive MR method quantifying mechanical properties of tissues by imaging the propagation of a shear wave inside the investigated tissue, using a specific MRI sequence.Tissue motion is encoded in phase images thanks to a Motion- Encoding Gradient (MEG) synchronized to an external mechanical excitation.Context: some studies implemented innovative sequences for MRE, but, to our knowledge, none have so far simulated these sequences before experiments.Aim of the study: simulation of a MRE experiment, with a gradient-echo sequence and a dynamical phantom, using the software ODIN.
