MRI sequence acquisition parameters
| Sequence | Repetition time (ms) | Echo time (ms) | Field of view (mm) | Matrix | Section thickness (mm) | Flip angle (°) | No. of signals acquired |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T2 | 2567–7367 | 80–90 | 200–260 | 384 × 192 | 3 | 90 | 1 |
| DCE | 4.484–4.648 | 2.1 | 200 | 256 × 168 | 3 | 30 | 1 |
| DWI | 3750 | 70.8–74.3 | 260 | 160 × 160 | 5 | 90 | 8 |
| RSIa | 9900 | 70–72 | 200–260 | 96 × 96 | 3 | 90 | 1 |
Abbreviations: DCE, dynamic contrast enhancement; DWI, diffusion-weighted imaging; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; RSI, restriction spectrum imaging.
RSI-MRI is performed at b-values of 0, 125, 375 and 1000 s mm−2 with 6, 6 and 15 directions at each respective nonzero b-value.
