Susceptibility‐induced distortion correction in hyperpolarized echo planar imaging
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Purpose Echo planar imaging is an attractive rapid imaging readout that can image hyperpolarized compounds in vivo. By alternating the sign of the phase encoding gradient waveform, spatial offsets arising from uncertain frequency shifts can be determined. We show here that blip‐reversed echo planar imaging can also be used to correct for susceptibility and B0 inhomogeneity effects that would otherwise produce image‐domain distortion in the heart. Methods Previously acquired blip‐reversed cardiac 3D‐Spectral‐Spatial echo planar imaging volumetric timecourses of hyperpolarized [1‐13C]pyruvate were distortion corrected by a deformation field estimated by reconstructing signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR)‐weighted progressively subsampled temporally summed images of each metabolite. Results Reconstructing blip‐reversed data as proposed produced volumetric timecourses that overlaid with proton reference images more consistently than without such corrections. Conclusion The method proposed may form an attractive method to correct for image‐domain distortions in hyperpolarized echo planar imaging experiments.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
