Optimal order quantities with remanufacturing across new product generations

<p>Full dataset (384 slices) of the<br>highest resolution 3D MPRAGE scan (shown in Fig. 7).</p

Experimental setup for motion tracking during the MRI measurements.

<p>The tracking systems CLU was mounted on the inner cover inside the magnet bore. The MPT marker was presented at a distance of ≈ 11–14 cm from the camera on the extension of the dental brace reaching out of the 32-channel helmet-design head coil.</p

One slice of the highest resolution MPRAGE scan.

<p>Note the sharpness in small structures such as vessels and the folia in the cerebellum in this 0.44 mm isotropic 3D MPRAGE data. Magnifications of the marked regions are shown below.

Highest Resolution in vivo Human Brain MRI Using Prospective Motion Correction: highest resolution ToF data

<p>Full dataset (140 slices) of the highest resolution 3D ToF scan (shown in Fig. 8).</p

Dental brace and MPT marker.

<p>An individually manufactured dental brace (A) was worn by the subject during the measurement. A passive marker similar to the one shown in (B) was mounted on the brace’s extension reaching out of the helmet-design head coil. Planar grating patterns were printed on both sites of a transparent substrate forming moiré patterns. The retro reflective background of the marker ensured visibility to the camera and lighting unit (CLU) at low light exposure levels.</p

Motion plots for the highest resolution GRE scans.

<p>The plots show translations and rotations recorded during the first average (A) and the second average (B) of the highest resolution GRE scan (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0133921#pone.0133921.g006" target="_blank">Fig 6</a>). Motion caused by breathing and heartbeat is clearly visible in the closeup.</p

MPRAGE comparison scans.

<p>0.44 mm isotropic 3D MPRAGE with motion correction off (A) and on (B) and magnifications of the marked regions. The plot shows the signal intensity profile of the line marked in the magnifications. Image-degrading effects caused by motion artifacts include noise amplification and creation of bogus structures e.g. doubled borders (a), blurring of structures such as flattening of signal intensity gradients (b) and plateaus (c).</p
