Phase Encoding… Words that strike fear into the heart of even the most courageous of scientists, radiologists, and technologists. A topic so horrendously complex it’s best to just avoid. In fact, if you value your sanity, I’d recommend exiting this lecture and watching something more light-hearted, like cat videos. But if you’re down to get a little nerdy and crazy, we’re going to take a deep dive into this thing called phase encoding, leaving no stone unturned and by the end of it, you’ll understand exactly what it is, why we do it, and how it helps us build a picture. Welcome to MRI Physics Explained Lecture 4, Phase Encoding!

What is PHASE? Imagine we are singing a song together and there are three different possible variations: 1) One of us is louder or quieter than the rest, that is a matter of Amplitude. 2) Amplitude of our voices are the same but one on us is singing faster or slower that the rest, that is a matter of Frequency. 3) Amplitude of our voices are the same (nobody is louder or quieter that the rest) and Frequency of singing are also the same (nobody is singing faster or slower the other people), but one of us is a little ahead or behind than the rest, that is a matter of PHASE (Time, but it is measured in angular degree, from zero to 360).

Livesaver, i could not for the love of god figure out the phase encoding gradient like ever. After this i realised we went over phase changes back in middle school and with the help of ur vids it completed the picture for me. Will definitely recommend u to everyone studying this. ❤

This content is just amazing. I have spent hours upon hours watching videos on other channels and reading on websites like MRI Questions and still felt unsettled and unable to integrate the various concepts. After watching this, I feel SO MUCH better and feel I now have a solid conceptual understanding (especially understanding how the Fourier transformations help in identifying unique spatial frequencies). I wish I watched this at the start as it would have saved me such an awful headache! Thank you so much!

Honestly comments like these are the greatest reward for making these videos, happy to hear it helped make things click. Credit to MRIQuestions.com and Dr. Elster for the underpinning theory here, I just expanded on it a little :) And while the real picture building process is a little more complicated, this ties in well with the typically taught base MRI physics concepts while avoiding the math. If you're really curious to how the real thing works, stay tuned! We will have a full series on it in the future including K-space.

I have watched several videos and read material from various sources on phase encoding. Your content has been the easiest to comprehend which otherwise is a challenging topic. The other sources either don't go into much detail or they go too much into the weeds. You have kept it simple with good animation and even the math has been simplified so it is easy to understand. I commend and appreciate your efforts, your knowledge and presentation skills. Quick question - do you plan on doing a presentation on Receive Bandwidth, sampling time, relation to frequency FOV, Nyquist theorm etc. Oh, and K space too :D

Thanks so much for the comment! I definitely have a whole set of lectures dedicated to k-space and how we truly build an image which involves getting into the math but I think I can present it in a visual heavy way still that will be intuitive. Not sure how deep we'll go into Nyquist theorem and such, always trying to find that balance between keeping it understandable without going too deep into the weeds but we will see! We very briefly touched upon the idea of Receive Bandwidth, I believe in the frequency encoding lecture but if you have more questions please send them my way! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eorNYoaCg9Wjh68

Before this moment 20:59 I was very interesting by your fantastic explanation and pretty animations, but suddenly you go through the nexts.. Unfortunately, you fell in the same mistakes like others, you imposed that all can move with you to the next steps by only saying “repeat this steps” .. So I suggest to you more illustrations on why we repeat phase encoding gradiant by example of 4x3 matrix to distinguish between phase and frequency voxels differentiation steps.. Many thanks for your unique explanation method and for your patience..

Thank you for the feedback! These lectures are meant as a way to intuitively get a grasp of how we build an image and what phase and frequency encoding are while avoiding all the math which is not insignificant. So this is more of a working framework to get a good base understanding from, but not an exact explanation and I encourage you and everyone to think critically as to how this may not explain the full story as a technologist or radiologist would understand it knowing the depth and variations of the sequences we perform on a daily basis. The full, complete explanation will be covered in future lectures. Stay tuned!

Thanks! Assuming we have e.g. a 100x200 pixel image in the xy-plane. Do we have to perform 100 individual measurements (with 100 different phase shifts and therefore 100 different applied gradients in the y-direction) in order to solve a 100x100 linear system of equations because we have 100 unknown amplitudes?

@@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED I'm confused about why we don't get the same problem at 7:55 in the Z-X plane. I can see that using frequency gradient in the X and Y axes causes the same frequencies to repeat and thus we can't resolve along (x+y=c). But why do we not get the same problem when using frequency gradient in both the Z and X axes? How are we still able to resolve voxels along those diagonals?
@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED
@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED Ай бұрын
The beautiful thing about the slice select gradient technique is that we don't have to resolve the signal in the z direction, the gradient is turned on along the z-axis so that when we apply our RF pulse and tune it to the region of the body of interest along the z-axis, we know all the signal we receive is coming from that slice alone. We simply just then turn off the z-axis gradient, the protons in the slice fall back into precession at the Larmor frequency, and the problem then turns simply into localization along the x and y axes for which we do the frequency encoding and phase encoding techniques. Now in 3D MRI acquisition we do replace this slice select gradient technique with a true image encoding gradient along the z-axis, but that will require a little extra knowledge to understand which we'll cover in future lectures 🙂

@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED
@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED 8 ай бұрын
Good eye and I debated on what is the best way to portray two gradients simultaneously on the image because it definitely can get confusing. I decided the most accurate would be to orient the addition and subtraction based on the axis the gradient is applied across. If you look at the X axis gradient, it is below the axis on the left (subtracted from B0) and above the axis on the right (added to B0). If you now turn your head 90 degrees counter-clockwise and look at the Y-axis, the portion of the gradient along the Y-axis in the bottom left voxel is above (added) and below in the top left voxel (subtracted). Hope this helps!

@@rubyamir5245 Hello, sure you can turn your head the opposite direction on any coordinate system and the sides will be flipped, but mathematically you essentially get the same result albeit a change in signs. The important point is that we are creating a linearly changing magnetic field along the Y-direction of the slice, it does not really matter whether it is increasing going down to up or up to down.

so why would you need k space if the signal can be decomposed into separate waves from each frequency/phase combination representing a point in cartesian space. the whole purpose of k space is that the signal at each point in cartesian space is a superposition of weighted waveforms of differring frequencies. if each point in space represents a specific frequency and phase, then there is no k space

My friend you are way ahead of the learning curve! The core lecture series is developed for the everyday radiologist and technician who wishes to get a feel for MRI physics without getting into the math which is multivariate calculus level. This expands on the concepts taught in most paid MRI physics courses, and as you have pointed out, what is the point of K-Space then? This is why K-space can be such a confusing topic in these courses, and in order to understand it and how we truly build a picture, we have to dive into the actual mathematics governing MRI image generation and we will do that in the future advanced series :)
