Abstract

ACR phantom for quality control of magnetic resonance imaging equipment can evaluate magnetic resonance imaging picture quality through various structures within the phantom. In this study, percent Signal Ghosting and Slice position accuracy of imaging could be analyzed by attaching implant and the wire for correction of tooth using ACR phantom in Head coil of 3.0T equipment. In the T1 weighted imaging of the first slice and the eleventh slice of implant, the slice position accuracy appeared to be good in ingress bandwidth 300, and it was good in ingress bandwidth 130 when wire for correction was attached. Percent Signal Ghosting in the seventh slice of SE T1 weighted imaging, implant and wire for correction added all appeared to be good when ingress bandwidth was 230. It is thought that in case of implant dental prosthesis patients in brain exam using magnetic resonance imaging, optimum image can be obtained by changing ingress bandwidth.

자기공명영상 장치의 정도관리를 위한 ACR 팬텀은 팬텀내의 여러 구조물을 통하여 자기공명영상 화질을 평가할 수 있다. 본 연구는 3.0T 장비에서 Head coil에서 ACR 팬텀을 이용하여 임플란트와 치아 교정용 철사를 부착하여 영상의 고스트 신호 백분율과 절편 두께 정확도를 분석할 수 있었다. T1강조영상 첫 번째 절편과 열한 번째 절편의 임플란트 보철에서 절편위치 정확도는 수신대역폭이 230에서 좋게 나타났으며, 교정용 철사가 부착했을 때는 수신대역폭이 130일 때가 좋았다. 고스트 신호 백분율은 SE T1강조영상 일곱번째 절편에서 임플란트 보철에 추가된 교정용 철사의 경우에는 수신대역폭 230이 좋게 나타났다. 자기공명영상 검사에서 임플란트 보철 환자의 경우에 적절한 수신대역폭을 선택하여 영상의 왜곡과 신소 소실이 감소된 영상을 획득할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
