3D Sampling of K-Space With Non-Cartesian Trajectories in MR Imaging
(Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2025) Dundar, Mehmet Sait; Gumus, Kazim Z.; Yilmaz, Bulent; 01. Abdullah Gül University
This study presents an innovative approach to 3D k-space sampling in MR imaging using non-Cartesian concentric shell trajectories. The method involves 32 concentric shells of varying radii, allowing for rapid data acquisition through undersampling techniques. Simulations using IDEA software demonstrate that this approach can fill the k-space in less than one second, a significant time reduction compared to traditional FLASH sequences that can take 3-4 minutes. The concentric shell model enhances imaging efficiency by minimizing artifacts and ensuring uniform k-space filling, leading to higher resolution and faster scans. This technique shows promise for clinical applications, particularly in dynamic imaging scenarios such as acute stroke and pediatric radiology, where speed and precision are critical. As illustrated in Figure A, the concentric shell trajectories enable uniform k-space filling, significantly reducing scan times and improving image quality. These results are based on the simulations conducted with IDEA software.
