  Figure 569-02-001.  A First Attempt at Solving the Bloch Equations on Quantum Computers
José Cruz Serrallés, Oluwadara Ogunkoya, Doga Kurckuoglu, Silvia Zorzetti, Riccardo Lattanzi
New York University Grossman School of Medicine, New York, United States of America
Impact: This work demonstrates the feasibility of solving the Bloch equations on quantum computers. Quantum algorithms could greatly enhance model-based quantitative MRI techniques like Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting by leveraging quantum parallelism to simulate larger problems and finer dictionaries than currently feasible.
  Figure 569-02-002.  Robustness of Golden-Angle Compressed Sensing with Temporal Total Variation (tTV) Reconstruction for MRgPTS Implementation
Naohiro Yagyu, Keito Nagayama, Nagaaki Kamiguchi, Tomoyuki Haishi, Yasuhiko Terada
The University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan
Impact: This study is the first to validate GA-CS-tTV in a proton scanning magnet environment. We provide a viable technical solution for the critical SM-artifact problem, establishing a crucial foundation for the clinical realization of real-time image-guided proton therapy.
  Figure 569-02-003.  Rotating frame zeugmatography (RFZ) meets Selective Encoding through Nutation and Fingerprinting (SENF)
Christopher Vaughn, Reid Bolding, Mark Griswold, William Grissom
Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, United States of America
Impact: This novel Selective Encoding through Nutation and Fingerprinting (SENF) sequence approach combines principles of Rotating frame zeugmatography (RFZ) and SENF to enable independent design of spatial encoding with controllable resolution for SENF sequences.
  Figure 569-02-004.  Insight into high quality ASL: multi-PLD with 3D-EPI readout at 5T
Zhonghui Li, xiaoyuan Fan, Hualu Han, Feng Feng
Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing, China
Impact: This study demonstrates that 3D-EPI readout enables high-quality multi-PLD ASL imaging at 5T with reduced blurring and improved SNR compared to GRASE. The approach enhances quantitative perfusion mapping and may facilitate more accurate cerebrovascular assessment at ultra-high field MRI.
  Figure 569-02-005.  Typed Parameters for MRI: A Unit-Safe CRTP Class that Enable easy and efficient Parameter Math
Chenguang Zhao
MethodVerse LLC, Orlando, United States of America
Impact: This work delivers unit-safe MRI parameter handling for sequence design and improves cross-vendor portability, making parameter calculations and code easier to maintain and reuse across platforms.
  Figure 569-02-006.  In Vivo 31P-MRS Reveals APOE4-Linked Metabolic Vulnerability in Hippocampus
Qianyun Su, Qiurong Yu, Xinyan Li, Xi Wang, Ruixi Li, Jinyuan Weng, Peng Wu, Yuxiang Teng, Yixin Zhou, Naying He, Jianfang Ma, Fuhua Yan
College of Health Science and Technology, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China
Impact: This study delineates the critical link between APOE genotype and cerebral energy metabolism, establishing metabolic markers as sensitive, pre-atrophy indicators for preclinical AD intervention.
  Figure 569-02-007.  31P MRSI coil combination using 23Na sensitivity information: Monte Carlo simulation and in vivo validations
Jiying Dai, Alexander Raaijmakers, Dennis Klomp
University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands
Impact: This study demonstrates that cross-frequency coil combination using 23Na sensitivity enables bias-free, SNR-efficient 31P MRSI. Validated through EM, Monte Carlo, and MR experiments, this approach advances quantitative metabolic imaging, particularly in low-SNR tissues, and is extendable to other multi-tuned systems.
  Figure 569-02-008.  Multiphoton Simultaneous Transmission and Reception MRI
Hannah Kempfert, Victor Han, Chunlei Liu
University of California, Berkeley, United States of America
Impact: Two-photon simultaneous transmission and reception MRI shifts the MRI signal away from the transmit band, allowing better transmit/receive isolation. Potential impacts include high SNR efficiency, robustness to motion/flow, and better imaging of ultra-short-T₂ tissues and rapidly decaying X-nuclei.
  Figure 569-02-009.  Design and Optimization of Adiabatic RF Pulses for SNAP MRI at 5T Platform
Jiachen Ji, Qinxin Wang, Rui Li
Tsinghua University, Beijing, China
Impact: The study designed and optimized adiabatic inversion pulse for carotid SNAP at 5T. SNAP equipped with the optimal adiabatic inversion pulse could achieve correct contrast at 5T with strong inhomogeneities, which lays an important foundation for the clinical application.
  Figure 569-02-010.  An Open-Source DW-RARE Pulseq Implementation for Robust High-Resolution MR Neurography
Andreas Holl, Jürgen Hennig, Maxim Zaitsev, Marie Wolf, Shadi Tashakori, Jakob Hufschmidt, Alexander Rau, Sebastian Littin
University Medical Center Freiburg, Faculty of Medicine, University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany
Impact: The DW-RARE sequence implementation in Pulseq overcomes current limitations in clinical MRN. This robust, high-resolution method provides superior nerve visibility and shows strong potential to replace DW-SE-EPI as the clinical standard for diffusion-weighted peripheral nerve imaging.
  Figure 569-02-011.  Double the SNR of FSE: A Joint Design of K-space Filter and Variable Flip Angles Based on Point Spread Function
Zhenyu Zhang, Weiying Dai, Li Zhao
College of Biomedical Engineering and Instrument Science, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China
Impact: This study proposed a general framework of joint variable flip angle and k-space filter design based on point spread functions, which doubled the SNR compared to conventional constant flip angle design in brain and abdominal images.
  Figure 569-02-012.  Real-time orthogonal plane MRI for motion management and target tracking applications
Mark Wright, Jihyun Yun, Eugene Yip, B. Gino Fallone, Keith Wachowicz
University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada
Impact: This orthogonal plane accelerated MR method can allow for improved target motion information compared to 2D implementations while maintaining the necessary frame rates for real-time applications and requiring only basic coil and computing hardware.
  Figure 569-02-013.  Towards high-resolution 3D Ultra-short TE MRA: Optimization of undersampled stack-of-stars radial Time-Of-Flight sequence
Daichi Murayama, Masami Yoneyama, TAKAYUKI SAKAI
Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Chiba, Japan
Impact: This study demonstrates that high-resolution SOS uTE-MRA with a 50% radial percentage provides clinically sufficient vascular visualization within a short scan time, enabling efficient, non-contrast follow-up imaging for patients with metallic implants after cerebral aneurysm treatment.
  Figure 569-02-014.  One-shot Prediction of Pose-Dependent B₀ Field Variations
Fatemeh Ebrahiminia, Mark Chiew
University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada
Impact: The proposed data-driven pipeline accelerates and improves pose-dependent B0 field-map estimation by eliminating the need for additional calibration scans or sequence modifications. Under motion, the model can be used in real-time motion-adaptive shimming or retrospective correction of motion-induced off-resonance effects.
