Synopsis

Keywords: Image acquisition: Artefacts

Common MRI artifacts will be reviewed to clarify their mechanisms and leverage this knowledge to identify and implement solutions to reduce artifacts that lessen image quality. Common artifacts will be classified based on the way in which they impact image quality.

In this session, common MR image artifacts will be reviewed. Attendees will enhance their confidence in identifying artifacts based on their appearance. The session will move beyond pattern recognition, to allow attendees to understand the underlying MR principles that lead to image artifacts when technical aspects go awry. Through a deeper conceptual understanding of the genesis of image aberrations, attendees will review, reinforce and actualize the conceptual knowledge presented in other segments of this course.
