Wherein, SkIndicate the diffusion weighted images of k-th of Diffusion direction, S0Indicate the image of no diffusion gradient, b table Show the diffusion-weighted factor in scanning process, ADCkIndicate the apparent diffusion coefficient in k-th of direction.
For using the disperse magnetic resonance weighted image of the same water mould of same sequence, phase can be calculated automatically by cloud platform The parameter value answered.By the inhomogeneities of main field, signal-to-noise ratio, Nyquist artifact, distortion, the calculated result of Fractional anisotropy Line chart is drawn by horizontal axis of the time, can show that parameters value changes with time rule, to judge magnetic resonance scanner Stability at any time.Fig. 4 to Fig. 8 respectively indicates the master that some scanning center is calculated by the diffusion weighted images of water mould The inhomogeneities in magnetic field, signal-to-noise ratio, Nyquist artifact, distortion, situation of change of the Fractional anisotropy in not same date, horizontal seat Mark indicates the date, and ordinate indicates the value of parameters.Since used water mould is substantially uniformity, hydrone respectively spreads ladder Degree direction apparent diffusion coefficient should be it is the same, can each Diffusion direction obtained by calculation apparent diffusion coefficient Value observes the stability of diffusion gradient.As shown in figure 9, being calculated automatically for the diffusion weighted images of water mould by cloud platform The apparent diffusion coefficient of each Diffusion direction out, and it is depicted as radar map, diffusion can intuitively be observed by the radar map The stability of gradient.
When being scanned to subject, obtained diffusion weighted images are subjected to the influence of a variety of artifacts, such as the dynamic puppet of head Shadow, directionality artifact etc..Head of the subject in repetition time (repetition time, TR) is dynamic to show as level on the image Between gray-scale intensity it is abnormal.Normalizated correlation coefficient can be used between the continuous level of all Diffusion directions (Normalized Correlation, NC) detects the relevant artifact of this intensity.Calculating for normalizated correlation coefficient, Normalizated correlation coefficient is calculated using formula (7),
Wherein, NC indicates the value of normalizated correlation coefficient, AiFor the ith pixel value of image A, BiIt is i-th of image B Pixel value, N are number of pixels total in piece image.The characteristics of normalizated correlation coefficient is presented in diffusion-weighted data be, When b value is identical, the normalizated correlation coefficient curve approximation of different Diffusion gradient directions obeys same distribution, but works as and gray scale occur When strength artifact, the normalizated correlation coefficient curve of different Diffusion gradient directions no longer obeys same distribution.It is total using same magnetic Scanner, identical sequence and the parameter of shaking are to same subject progress twice sweep, and subject is dynamic without obvious head for the first time, second of subject There is obvious head dynamic.The b0 figure of 6 different Diffusion directions of twice sweep image is calculated respectively automatically using cloud platform and is connected NC value between subsequent layers face, and by result visualization.Continuous level is calculated using the scan data that first time is moved without obvious head Between normalizated correlation coefficient curve graph it is as shown in Figure 10, be calculated continuously using the scan data for having obvious head dynamic for the second time Normalizated correlation coefficient curve graph between level is as shown in figure 11, and abscissa indicates different level, and ordinate indicates normalization phase Coefficient values.Comparison diagram 10 and Figure 11 are it is found that when without motion artifact, the normalization of the continuous level between different Diffusion directions Related coefficient curve deviation is smaller, and each curve approximation obeys same distribution, and when head occur and moving artifact, different diffusion gradients The normalizated correlation coefficient curve deviation of continuous level between direction is larger.
There may be directionality artifacts for diffusion-weighted imaging, are mainly shown as the main dispersal direction of measurement The strong deviation of (Principal Direction, PD), this artifact are to be in weight in scanning process caused by the vibration of bed It is more serious in 30kg crowd below.For detection direction artifact, we by cloud platform, first with dispersion tensor at Picture (Diffusion Tensor Imaging, DTI) model carries out models fitting to diffusion-weighted data, calculates full brain automatically Main dispersal direction, and visualized, so as to intuitively observe main dispersal direction in the distribution of unit ball surface.Just In normal situation, main dispersal direction should be similar with brain structure in spherical surface distribution, that is, is divided into almost symmetrical point of left and right two Cloth.It is not in this symmetry if there is directionality artifact.Siemens Prisma 3T and Siemens is used respectively Trio 3T magnetic resonance scanner carries out the scanning of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance image to subject, and Prisma gradient system is stronger, scanning When, the with small vibration of bed is compared with Prisma, and Trio gradient system is weaker, and when scanning, the vibration of bed is big, it may appear that biggish side Tropism artifact.For the diffusion weighted images of subject, by cloud platform, using diffusion tensor model to diffusion-weighted data Models fitting is carried out, the main dispersal direction of full brain is calculated, spherical uniform is artificially divided into 3600 different directions, and calculate The number of the main dispersal direction of all directions out, by result visualization.Use the main diffusion of Prisma scanning the data obtained The visualization result in direction is as shown in figure 12, uses the visualization result such as figure of the main dispersal direction of Trio scanning the data obtained Shown in 13, abscissa indicates that different directions, ordinate indicate the number of the main dispersal direction in all directions.Comparison diagram 12, Figure 13 is it is found that when the non-directional artifact of disperse magnetic resonance weighted image, visualization result of main dispersal direction or so approximation Symmetrically, when directionality artifact occurs in disperse magnetic resonance weighted image, half brain of left and right in the visualization result of main dispersal direction Serious asymmetric situation to occur.
