    摘要: An imaging method (150, 190) for imaging a subject (16) including fibrous or anisotropic structures (102) includes acquiring a three-dimensional apparent diffusion tensor map (162) of a region with some anisotropic structures (102). The apparent diffusion tensor at a voxel is processed (164) to obtain eigenvectors (e1, e2, e3) and eigenvalues ((1, (2, (3). A three-dimensional fiber representation (208) is extracted (190) using the eigenvectors and eigenvalues. During the extracting (190), voxels are locally interpolated (202) in at least a selected dimension in a vicinity of the fiber representation (208). The interpolating includes weighting the voxels by a parameter indicative of a local anisotropy. The interpolating results in a three-dimensional fiber representation (208) having a higher tracking accuracy and representation resolution than the acquired tensor map (162).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of deriving time-averaged moments of a convolution profile from dynamic input and arrival profiles. A convolutive relation exists between the arrival profile and the input profile. According to the invention the time-averaged moment of the convolution profile is calculated from time-averaged moments of the dynamic input and arrival profiles. The method is used notably for the study of perfusion effects by means of magnetic resonance imaging.

    摘要: The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging method. The method includes the execution of image pulse sequences for the measurement of magnetic resonance image signals and navigator signals. After the execution of the image pulse sequence, the navigator MR signal is checked so as to determine whether the navigator MR signal meets a predetermined quality criterion. If the navigator MR signal does not meet the quality criterion, the navigator MR signal and the magnetic resonance imaging signals corresponding to the navigator MR signal are measured again.
