| Abstract | The blood perfusion measurement is done by injecting a bolus of contrast agent in the brain followed by imaging over a period of time (scan). This process can extend into minutes and hence any patient motion mid-scan results in corrupted data. This is often observed in dynamic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for both susceptibility (DSC) and contrast enhanced (DCE) scans. Motion correction done after scanning is typically the most time-intensive step in the entire measurement process since it involves registering each volume in the time-series to a reference volume. We argue that detecting the presence of motion prior to correction can mitigate this problem by reducing the number of volumes to be corrected. The challenge in motion detection is that the injected contrast alters the signal intensity as a function of time leading to false alarms. We present a robust multi-stage method: subdivision of the time series data into bolus and non-bolus phases; clustering-based identification of bolus-affected pixels followed by correction of their intensity using a Gamma variate function fitting-based method and a 2D block-wise phase correlation for detecting motion between adjacent volumes in DSC-MRI data. The proposed method was tested on a DSC MR sequence with simulated motion of varying degrees. The experimental results show that the entropy of the derived motion fields is a good metric for detecting and categorizing the motion. The proposed scheme when applied prior to correction can achieve on average a 37% reduction in the time required for motion correction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
