Although CS-based reconstruction in
single-shot EPI-DWI can be used to accelerate acquisition time and/or improve
spatial resolution without image quality loss, a small fraction of FLLs went
undetected on CS-DWI.
Figure 1. Representative images of conv-DWI and CS-DWI for
group A and group B, which received comparable ratings.
Figure 2. Example of a patient with a missed FLL on CS-DWI.
In conv-DWI (A), a FLL was detected in segment V (arrow), that was not called on CS-DWI (B). In correlation with all sequences from the standard MRI protocol, this FLL corresponded to a thrombosed liver hemangioma.
