TL;DR: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates chemical energy and generates heat to protect animals from cold and obesity as mentioned in this paper, and Rodents possess two types of UCP-1 positive brown adipocytes arising from distinct developmental lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton density fat-fraction: A standardized mr-based biomarker of tissue fat concentration
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the meeting and presentations from the 25 invited speakers at the ISMRM Workshop on Fat–Water Separation was recently published in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brown Adipose Reporting Criteria in Imaging STudies (BARCIST 1.0): Recommendations for Standardized FDG-PET/CT Experiments in Humans
Kong Y. Chen,Aaron M. Cypess,Maren R. Laughlin,Carol Renfrew Haft,Houchun H. Hu,Miriam A. Bredella,Sven Enerbäck,Paul E. Kinahan,Wouter D. van Marken Lichtenbelt,Frank I. Lin,John Sunderland,Kirsi A. Virtanen,Kirsi A. Virtanen,Richard L. Wahl +13 more
TL;DR: Panel recommendations are meant to enhance comparability across experiments, but not to constrain experimental design or the questions that can be asked, since there are no fully validated best practices at this time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linearity, Bias, and Precision of Hepatic Proton Density Fat Fraction Measurements by Using MR Imaging: A Meta-Analysis
Takeshi Yokoo,Suraj D. Serai,Ali Pirasteh,Mustafa R. Bashir,Gavin Hamilton,Diego Hernando,Houchun H. Hu,Holger Hetterich,Jens-Peter Kühn,Guido M. Kukuk,Rohit Loomba,Michael S. Middleton,Nancy A. Obuchowski,Ji Soo Song,An Tang,Xinhuai Wu,Scott B. Reeder,Claude B. Sirlin +17 more
TL;DR: MR imaging-PDFF has excellent linearity, bias, and precision across different field strengths, imager manufacturer, reconstruction method, and region of interest as random effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel MR imaging: a user's guide.
TL;DR: Parallel imaging is a recently developed family of techniques that take advantage of the spatial information inherent in phased-array radiofrequency coils to reduce acquisition times in magnetic resonance imaging, thereby significantly shortening the acquisition time.
