  2. MRI artifact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_artifact

    An MRI artifact is a visual artifact (an anomaly seen during visual representation) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It is a feature appearing in an image that is not present in the original object. [1] Many different artifacts can occur during MRI, some affecting the diagnostic quality, while others may be confused with pathology.

  3. Artifact (error) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artifact_(error)

    In medical imaging, artifacts are misrepresentations of tissue structures produced by imaging techniques such as ultrasound, X-ray, CT scan, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These artifacts may be caused by a variety of phenomena such as the underlying physics of the energy-tissue interaction as between ultrasound and air, susceptibility ...

  4. Ghosting (medical imaging) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghosting_(Medical_imaging)

    Ghosting is a multidimensional artifact that occurs in the MRI in the phase-encoded direction (short axis of the image) after applying the Fourier transform. When the phase of the magnetic resonance signal is being encoded into the 2D or 3D Fourier image, a mild deviation from the actual phase and amplitude may occur.

  5. Visual artifact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_artifact

    In microscopy, an artifact is an apparent structural detail that is caused by the processing of the specimen and is thus not a legitimate feature of the specimen. In light microscopy, artifacts may be produced by air bubbles trapped under the slide's cover slip. [1] In electron microscopy, distortions may be produced in the drying out of the ...

  6. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields , magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.

    Drawing of CT fan beam and patient in a CT imaging system CT scan of the thorax. The axial slice (right) is the image that corresponds to number 2/33 on the coronal slice (left). Spinning tube, commonly called spiral CT, or helical CT, is an imaging technique in which an entire X-ray tube is spun around the central axis of the area being ...

  9. Magic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_angle

    The magic angle artifact refers to the increased signal observed when MRI sequences with short echo time (TE) (e.g., T 1 or proton density spin-echo sequences) are used to image tissues with well-ordered collagen fibers in one direction (e.g., tendon or articular hyaline cartilage). [1]
