Abstract

Background The dark-rim artefact (DRA) is well known in 2D firstpass perfusion (FPP). The in-plane features of DRA are understood, but DRA has not been examined along the second phase-encoding (partition) direction for 3D FPP. The Gibbs contribution to DRAs in 2D FPP is minimised by finer resolution, but low through-plane resolutions of 3D FPP imply risk of partition axis DRAs. We investigated these new partition DRAs (PDRAs”) and partial volume effects due to coarse resolution of this direction.
