Saturation recovery preparations followed by 3D segmented fast low angle shot readouts were implemented with Gaussian-density random 3D Cartesian sampling. A bulk motion removal scheme was developed to improve image quality. The proposed protocol was tested in phantom and human studies. In vivo scans were performed on 14 healthy subjects and 7 patients with carotid atherosclerosis. Kinetic parameters including area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC), vp , Ktrans , and ve were evaluated for each case.ResultsPhantom experiments showed that T1 measurements using the proposed protocol were in good agreement with reference value ( R 2 = 0.96 ). In vivo studies demonstrated that AUC, vp , and Ktrans in the patient group were significantly higher than in the control group (0.63 ± 0.13 versus 0.42 ± 0.12, P l 0.001; 0.14 ± 0.05 versus 0.11 ± 0.03, P = 0.034; and 0.13 ± 0.04 versus 0.08 ± 0.02, P l 0.001, respectively). Results from repeated subjects showed good interscan reproducibility (intraclass correlation coefficient: vp , 0.83; Ktrans , 0.87; ve , 0.92; AUC, 0.94).ConclusionMultitasking DCE is a promising approach for quantitatively assessing the vascularity properties of the carotid vessel wall.
