MRI Imaging Techniques

• The text discusses breast imaging and the importance of dynamic imaging and identifying lesions.
• Biopsies can be done using a fiducial and a CAD system.
• MRA imaging of the abdomen requires overcoming obstacles such as heart beating and patient breathing.
• Gating is important for MRA imaging to avoid motion artifacts.
• Test bolus and timing are crucial for optimal MRA imaging.
• Centric and elliptical filling can improve MRA imaging quality.
• The ascending aorta is a site of pathological processes and requires gated imaging.
• Cardiac imaging is challenging but exciting for MRI technicians.
• Every heart is slightly different and offers unique challenges.
• The text emphasizes the importance of timing and technique for optimal imaging results.
• The speaker is showing an axial view of the heart.
• They are taking slices through the heart to show the left and right ventricles.
• The septum is located in the middle.
• The four chambers of the heart are visible in the short axis view.
• The left ventricle is on the left side of the patient.
• The right ventricle is on the right side of the patient.
• The left atrium and right atrium are also visible.
• The mitral valve is between the left atrium and left ventricle.
• The tricuspid valve is on the right side of the heart.
• The speaker also shows a two chamber view.
