| الوصف: | Purpose To investigate the effect of respiratory motion in terms of signal loss in prostate diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and to evaluate the usage of partial Fourier in a free-breathing protocol in a clinically relevant b -value range using both single-shot and multi-shot acquisitions. Methods A controlled breathing DWI acquisition was first employed at 3 T to measure signal loss from deep breathing patterns. Single-shot and multi-shot (2-shot) acquisitions without partial Fourier (no pF) and with partial Fourier (pF) factors of 0.75 and 0.65 were employed in a free-breathing protocol. The apparent SNR and ADC values were evaluated in 10 healthy subjects to measure if low pF factors caused low apparent SNR or overestimated ADC. Results Controlled breathing experiments showed a difference in signal coefficient of variation between shallow and deep breathing. In free-breathing single-shot acquisitions, the pF 0.65 scan showed a significantly ( p < 0.05) higher apparent SNR than pF 0.75 and no pF in the peripheral zone (PZ) of the prostate. In the multi-shot acquisitions in the PZ, pF 0.75 had a significantly higher apparent SNR than 0.65 pF and no pF. The single-shot pF 0.65 scan had a significantly lower ADC than single-shot no pF. Conclusion Deep breathing patterns can cause intravoxel dephasing in prostate DWI. For single-shot acquisitions at a b -value of 800 s/mm 2 , any potential risks of motion-related artefacts at low pF factors (pF 0.65) were outweighed by the increase in signal from a lower TE, as shown by the increase in apparent SNR. In multi-shot acquisitions however, the minimum pF factor should be larger, as shown by the lower apparent SNR at low pF factors. |
