Retaining information from multidimensional correlation MRI using a spectral regions of interest generator.

ABSTRACT: Multidimensional correlation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an emerging imaging modality that is capable of disentangling highly heterogeneous and opaque systems according to chemical and physical interactions of water within them. Using this approach, the conventional three dimensional MR scalar images are replaced with spatially resolved multidimensional spectra. The ensuing abundance in microstructural and chemical information is a blessing that incorporates a real challenge: how does one distill and refine it into images while retaining its significant components? In this paper we introduce a general framework that preserves the spectral information from spatially resolved multidimensional data. Equal weight is given to significant spectral components at the single voxel level, re
