Synopsis

An assessment of image quality is presented from a multicentre WB-MRI study. A radiologist assessed image quality and the presence/severity of several common artefacts/image quality issues and metrics were also defined to measure these quantitatively. Image quality was consistently good or excellent, with only one DWI examination deemed non-diagnostic. In the case of most artefacts, the quantitative measurements were found to correlate with radiological assessment and a statistically significant ordinal regression model was found to predict DW image quality score using the quantitative measurements. These measurements could form part of an automated quality control pipeline for multi-centre WB-MRI studies.
