08:15   Introduction

08:27 0762. Influence of Diffusion Time and Gradient Strength on the Estimation of Cell Size in MRI Cytometry
S. Adhikari, C. Jin, J. Xie, J. Wang, Y. Huo, J. Gore, X. Jiang, J. Xu
Vanderbilt University Institute of Imaging Science, Nashville, United States
Impact: OGSE only and IMPULSED derived mean cell size were comparable at all gradient strengths while VERDICT overestimated the mean cell size at 65mT/m suggesting to include OGSE in estimating tumor cell size.
08:39 0763. The effects of cardiac gating, flow compensation, and robust fitting on diffusion kurtosis imaging of the kidneys
N. Gilani, M. Kumbella, M. Bruno, J. Veraart, D. Basukala, H. Chandarana, E. Sigmund
NYU Langone Health, New York, United States
Impact: Cardiac gating, flow compensation, and advanced processing pipelines mitigate artifacts and flow effects on diffusion kurtosis imaging of the kidney and allow more specific renal microstructural investigations.
08:51 0764. Multi-center test-retest repeatability and reproducibility of in-vivo renal diffusion MRI measurements: preliminary findings
S. Pasini, L. Garcia-Ruiz, G. Villa, S. Ringgaard, A. Strittmatter, A. Raj, R. Echeverria-Chasco, V. Aramendía-Vidaurreta, J. María Mora Gutierrez, N. García Fernández, M. Bozzetto, P. Brambilla, M. Trillini, L. Itu, I. Urdea, L. Micu, N. Buus, M. Aastrup, E. Hansen, S. Francis, F. Zoellner, C. Laustsen, M. Fernandez-Seara, A. Caroli
Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri IRCCS, Bergamo, Italy
Impact: This study supports the reliability of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in multi-center studies and demonstrates excellent repeatability and reproducibility of diffusion parameters. 
09:03 0765. 2D fitting improves simultaneous intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and compartmental T2 mapping in the human kidney and liver
J. Stabinska, T. Thiel, A. Ljimani, H-J Wittsack, H. Zöllner
Kennedy Krieger Institute, Baltimore, United States
Impact: The extended 2D T2-IVIM model efficiently minimizes the bias in f values and allows simultaneous estimation of the IVIM parameter and compartmental T2 values in the liver and kidney.
09:15 0766. Evaluation of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) to detect bone marrow ischemia and perfusion in a piglet model of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease
A. Amann, E. Buko, S. Parvaze, A. Armstrong, F. Tóth, C. Johnson
University of Minnesota, St. Paul, United States
Impact: Our results provide additional evidence that IVIM can serve as a non-contrast-enhanced alternative to gadolinium CE-MRI in detecting regions of bone marrow ischemia and perfusion, with potential benefit for pediatric patients with ischemic bone disorders including LCPD.
09:27 0767. The Value of Hybrid Multidimensional MRI in Identifying Prostate Cancer and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Feasibility Study
H. Ji, H. Cheng, M. Chen, X. Li, J. Zhu, C. Li
Department of Radiology, Beijing Hospital, National Center of Gerontology; Institute of Geriatric Medicine, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, P. R. China, Beijing, China
Impact: HM-MRI enables efficient and accurate identification of PCa and BPH, thereby providing reliable guidance for clinicians. HM-MRI also shows potential for other clinical applications. 
09:39 0768. Prediction of prognostic factors of breast cancer with multimodal diffusion MRI
X. Wang, y. zhang, J. Cheng, Y. Hu, L. Lin, P. Sun, Y. Hu, A. Wang, Y. Zhang, Y. Li, K. Zhang, W. Zhang
The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China
Impact: Microstructural mapping with multimodal diffusion MRI demonstrates promise for characterizing breast cancer and helpful for prognostic evaluation.
09:51 0769. Tailored Parameter Optimization Framework for Time-dependent Diffusion MRI: Feasibility in Multi-Region Body Imaging at 5.0T
Z. Zhang, L. Wang, W. Cai, H. Li, J. Zhu, X. Zhang, J. Yuan, H. Wang, H. Li
The Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-inspired Intelligence, Fudan University, Shanghai, China
Impact:

This framework supports broader clinical adoption of td-dMRI by enhancing diagnostic reliability, enabling multi-center standardization, and extending the approach’s applicability to other diffusion imaging models.
