Zero TE Imaging for MRA and Bone

This lecture will dive into basic imaging formation, MR signal loss in Time-of-Flight MR angiography and cortical bone imaging, applications of Zero TE imaging in TOF and explore image and case review.

Learning Objectives

  1. Analyze and explain the basic processes of image formation, focusing on the roles of echo time (TE), Free Induction Decay (FID), gradients, and the definitions and effects of magnetic susceptibility.
  2. Define and understand the basic difficulty in MR signal loss in Time-of-Flight MR angiography and cortical bone imaging.
  3. Demonstrate the principles involved in achieving a near-zero echo time (TE).       
  4. Define the applications of Zero TE imaging in TOF and cortical bone imaging.
  5. Identify Zero-TE pathology and results.
