The FOV is determined by the size of the imaging matrix and the physical dimensions of the MRI scanner’s gradient coils. The matrix size refers to the number of pixels in the image. The relationship between FOV and Matrix Size can be described using the equation: Pixel Size = FOV / Matr...
No imaging dose by ionizing radiation with MRI imaging is another advantage [8]. Radiation treatment planning frequently uses both CT and MR for many disease sites [9, 10]. In general, a planning CT scan is used as the primary image set and MR set is registered as 2nd data set to the...
Imaging The MRI scans were performed using a 3.0T Siemens Verio MR scanner (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) with 4-channel neck matrix and 8-channel spine array. The protocol consisted of a conventional sagittal turbo spin echo T1-weighted scan, a sagittal turbo spin echo T2-weighted ...
