The purpose of this project research is to assess mice
rectum wall using MRI combined with endomicroscopy and
conventional endoscopy. Endoluminal MRI coils with
active decoupling circuit were developed and
characterized on phantoms. Then, in-vivo examination was
finally done on mice (c57 black6j). Endoluminal coils
improve significantly the local SNR compared to body
mice volume birdcage coil. Rectal wall layers are better
visualized due to improved spatial resolution achieve
with SNR gain. This study shows the feasibility to use
small endoluminal coils for mice rectal wall assessment
and opens perspectives to better understand rectal
pathologies.
