From: 3D quantification of metal-induced geometric distortions in MRI
Comparison between VIBE5 and SPACE with stainless-steel bracket: (a) the volume of signal loss and pile-up artifacts; (b) the percentage of detected crossing points in subregions differed between both sequences due to the different volumes of artifacts; (c) measured (solid lines) and estimated (dash lines) mean MD per subregion; (d) total metal-induced distortions (MD) in measurable subregions (white) and estimated total MD in the artifact-affected subregions (gray). (* \(p\le 0.05\), ** \(p\le 0.001\)).
