The acquisition of breast DCE-MRI using a flexible TWIST
view sharing technique was simulated. A digital
phantom was generated with three 5mm uniform spherical
lesions of persistent, plateau and wash-out type
of contrast uptake, and one 10 mm complex tumor with a
mixture of all three types of enhancements. Our results
show that with the typical spatial resolution in
clinical breast DCE-MRI, TWIST view sharing parameters
of pA=20% and pB=20% provides the lowest overall RMS
error for all time points, while pA=50% and pB=50%
produces image with minimum error at the peak contrast
uptake.
