Simultaneous whole-liver water and mapping with isotropic resolution during free-breathing.

Purpose: To develop and validate a data acquisition scheme combined with a motion-resolved reconstruction and dictionary-matching-based parameter estimation to enable free-breathing isotropic resolution self-navigated whole-liver simultaneous water-specific ( ) and ( ) mapping for the characterization of diffuse and oncological liver diseases.

Methods: The proposed data acquisition consists of a magnetization preparation pulse and a two-echo gradient echo readout with a radial stack-of-stars trajectory, repeated with different preparations to achieve different and contrasts in a fixed acquisition time of 6 min. Regularized reconstruction was performed using self-navigation to account for motion during the free-breathing acquisition, followed by water-fat separation.

Deep Learning for Retrospective Motion Correction in MRI: A Comprehensive Review.

Motion represents one of the major challenges in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since the MR signal is acquired in frequency space, any motion of the imaged object leads to complex artefacts in the reconstructed image in addition to other MR imaging artefacts. Deep learning has been frequently proposed for motion correction at several stages of the reconstruction process.

An Adaptive Multi-Modal Control Strategy to Attenuate the Limb Position Effect in Myoelectric Pattern Recognition.

Over the last few decades, pattern recognition algorithms have shown promising results in the field of upper limb prostheses myoelectric control and are now gradually being incorporated in commercial devices. A widely used approach is based on a classifier which assigns a specific input value to a selected hand motion. While this method guarantees good performance and robustness within each class, it still shows limitations in adapting to different conditions encountered in real-world applications, such as changes in limb position or external loads.
