title: Enhanced Fat-Tumor Discrimination in Diffusion-Weighted MRI Using Low-Rank Reconstruction and Radiomic Analysis: Data and Metadata

description: General InformationTitle: Rohan VDCASPR Dataset for Enhanced Fat-Tumor Discrimination in Diffusion-Weighted MRIDescription: This dataset contains raw and processed k-space data from VD-CASPR and T2-weighted diffusion MRI scans, aimed at improving fat-tumor discrimination using a novel low-rank reconstruction framework. The dataset includes raw k-space data, corrected Fourier transform data, and transformed k-space data post low-rank reconstruction. The scans mimic clinical scenarios with challenging tumor and fat signal differentiation.Authors: Rohan Senthilkumar.License: CC-BY 4.0Keywords: Diffusion-Weighted MRI, VD-CASPR, k-space, Fourier Transform, Low-Rank Reconstruction, Fat-Tumor Discrimination, Radiomics<br> Files and DescriptionsRohan_VDCASPR_DatasetDescription: Raw k-space data from the VD-CASPR scan of a phantom object mimicking a lesion in a normal environment.Format: .matMethodology: VD-CASPR scan to capture raw k-space data for subsequent processing and reconstruction.<br><br>2.
