SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-ACCESSIBLE MEDIUM FOR DETERMINING AT LEAST ONE CHARACTERISTIC OF AT LEAST ONE TISSUE OR AT LEAST ONE MRI MEASUREMENT CONDITION OF THE AT LEAST ONE TISSUE USING ACTIVE CONTRAST ENCODING MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PROCEDURE(S)

摘要

In another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is an exemplary system, method and computer-accessible for determining a characteristic(s) of a tissue(s), that can include, for example, receiving magnetic resonance imaging information regarding the tissue(s) including a time-intensity curve(s) of the tissue(s) based on a contrast agent(s) concentration, actively encoding a part of the time-intensity curve(s) with a magnetic resonance relaxation property(s) of the tissue(s) by varying a magnetic resonance imaging scan parameter(s) to generate encoded data during magnetic resonance data acquisition, and determining the tissue characteristic(s) based on the encoded data.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-accessible medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions for determining at least one characteristic of at least one tissue or at least one magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurement condition of the at least one tissue, wherein, when a computer arrangement executes the instructions, the computer arrangement is configured to perform procedures comprising:
generating MRI information by encoding at least one portion of at least one time-intensity curve associated with the at least one tissue, which is based on at least one contrast agent concentration, with (i) at least one magnetic resonance (MR) relaxation property of the at least one tissue and (ii) at least one MR measurement condition, by varying at least one MRI scan parameter; and determining the at least one tissue characteristic based on the MRI information.
