Analyse der Bildqualität einer diffusionsgewichteten (EPI DWI) Sequenz: Untersuchungen an einem 1,5Â T MRT mit höherer Gradientenfeldstärke

Conclusion: The image quality of EPI DWI improves from a higher gradient field strength. The shortening rise time of 200 μs and the slewrate of 200 T/m/s will lead to a faster gradient switching. Single shot EPI DWI is less influenced by image artefacts and the presentation of different anatomical structures profits when a MR scanner with higher gradient field strength is used.
