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.
