Title
Real-time interactive viewing of 4D kinematic MR joint studies.
Abstract
Assessment of soft tissue in normal and abnormal joint motion today gets feasible by acquiring time series of 3D MRI images. However, slice-by-slice viewing of such 4D kinematic images is cumbersome, and does not allow appreciating the movement in a convenient way. Simply presenting slice data in a cine-loop will be compromised by through-plane displacements of anatomy and "jerks" between frames, both of which hamper visual analysis of the movement. To overcome these limitations, we have implemented a demonstrator for viewing 4D kinematic MRI datasets. It allows to view any user defined anatomical structure from any viewing perspective in real-time. Smoothly displaying the movement in a cine-loop is realized by image post processing, fixing any user defined anatomical structure after image acquisition.
