An optimal MR elastography motion encoding scheme
applicable to any MRE pulse sequence is introduced in
this study along with a new mathematical framework to
support this method. An MRE pulse sequence based on this
scheme would have at least 33% time efficiency compared
to a conventional MRE pulse sequence. This improvement
has clinical significance for increasing in the quality
of elastograms by reducing the motion artifacts and
image misregistration. The method was demonstrated on a
phantom and an excellent agreement was observed between
the proposed method and a conventional MRE method.
