Novel Technology Designed to Increase MRI Speeds Could Lead to Faster Scans

Complex mathematics and engineering are involved in generating images of internal organs and tissues when patients enter the magnetic tube of an MRI machine. Any movement by the patient can corrupt the images, and the scan can take an hour or longer. Now, a new technology that adjusts the sampling pattern created by the machine’s magnetic fields could increase scan speeds of three-dimensional MRI. More...
