  2. 1. Measurement accuracy. Applications in X-ray computed tomography (CT) dose reduction and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) volume selection

    Author : Göran Starck; Göteborgs universitet; Göteborgs universitet; Gothenburg University; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CT; Radiation exposure; Image quality; Tissue characterisation; MRS volume selection; Signal profile; Phantom; Magnetic susceptibility;

    Abstract : X-ray computed tomography (CT) images of transaxial cross sections of the body can be used to determine tissue volumes. However, the considerable radiation dose associated with high-quality clinical images has greatly limited the use of CT for this application. READ MORE

  4. 2. Quantitative Magnetic Resonance in Diffuse Neurological and Liver Disease

    Author : Olof Dahlqvist Leinhard; Peter Lundberg; Anne-Marie Landtblom; Marcel Warntjes; Eva Lund; Göran Starck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiological physics; Radiofysik;

    Abstract : Introduction: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is one of the most important diagnostic tools in modern medicine. Compared to other imaging modalities, it provides superior soft tissue contrast of all parts of the body and it is considered to be safe for patients. READ MORE

  5. 3. Analysis of Human Brain MRI : Contributions to Regional Volume Studies
