ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To assess the potential for accelerating continuous-wave (CW) T1ρ dispersion measurement with compressed sensing approach via studying the effect that the data reduction has on the ability to detect differences between intact and degenerated articular cartilage with different spin-lock amplitudes and to assess quantitative bias due to acceleration.METHODS:
Osteochondral plugs (n = 27, 4 mm diameter) from femur (n = 14) and tibia (n = 13) regions from human cadaver knee joints were obtained from commercial biobank (Science Care, USA) under Ethical permission 134/2015. MRI of specimens was performed at 9.4T with magnetization prepared radial balanced SSFP (bSSFP) readout sequence, and the CWT1ρ relaxation time maps were computed from the measured data. The relaxation time maps were evaluated in the cartilage zones for different acceleration factors. For reference, Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) grading and biomechanical measurements were performed and correlated with the MRI findings.RESULTS:
Four-fold acceleration of CWT1ρ dispersion measurement by compressed sensing approach was feasible without meaningful loss in the sensitivity to osteoarthritic (OA) changes within the articular cartilage. Differences were significant between intact and OA groups in the superficial and transitional zones, and CWT1ρ correlated moderately with the reference measurements (0.3 < r < 0.7).CONCLUSION:
CWT1ρ was able to differentiate between intact and OA cartilage even with four-fold acceleration. This indicates that acceleration of CWT1ρ dispersion measurement by compressed sensing approach is feasible with negligible loss in the sensitivity to osteoarthritic changes in articular cartilage.Palabras clave
