Reduced Distortion in Prostate DWI by Using Split Echo Type TSE-DWI (SPLICE) with Multi-VANE Acquisition [Presidential Award Proceedings]

Abstract

　We developed new TSE-DWI combining SPLICE and MultiVane, named MV-SPLICE to reduce image distortion. The SE and STE were separately acquired in separate k-space. In this study, ADCs and SNRs in TZ and PZ, and distortion in the AP direction of prostate diameter for MV-SPLICE were investigated.
