Role of PROPELLER-DWI of the prostate in reducing distortion and artefact from total hip replacement metalwork

摘要

Objective: To compare image quality, artefact, and distortion in standard echo-planar imaging (EPI) with periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) for prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in patients with previous total hip replacement (THR).
