摘要:
A method of removing distortion by lipids from an MR image includes obtaining an MR image including voxels, obtaining data of the voxels from the obtained MR image, estimating a lipid-related spectrum by using the obtained data, and removing the estimated lipid-related spectrum from the obtained data. The method may be used in the context of magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI).
摘要:
A method comprises acquiring navigation data during navigation scans at each of a plurality of points in time. A plurality of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) k-space data corresponding to an imaged object are acquired at the plurality of points in time using Cartesian sampling, the k-space data including at least two spatial dimensions, a time. The respective motion state for each of the k-space data are computed based on the navigation data. At least one image is reconstructed from the plurality MRI k-space data using k-space data corresponding to at least two motion states and the same point in time to reconstruct the at least one image.
摘要:
Diagnostic method for providing information for a medical condition of a ROI in an intervertebral disc in a patient, the method comprising acquiring MRS data for a voxel located with the ROI and producing a processed MRS spectrum containing spectral peak regions corresponding with proteoglycan, lactate and alanine. A parameter is calculated from the spectrum, correlative for diagnosing the intervertebral disc as painful or non-painful.
摘要:
A method of magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging of an object (O) including at least one chemical species to be imaged, comprising sampling of the k -space such that a plurality of N ω first sampling trajectories through at least one k -space segment of the k -space is formed along a phase-encoding direction, each of said first sampling trajectories beginning in a central k -space region and continuing to a k -space border of the at least one k -space segment and having a duration equal to or below a spectral dwell time corresponding to the reciprocal spectral bandwidth, collecting at least one first set of gradient-echo signals obtained along said first sampling trajectories, collecting at least one second set of gradient-echo signals obtained along a plurality of N ω second sampling trajectories, said N ω second sampling trajectories and said N ω first sampling trajectories being mutually mirrored relative to a predetermined k -space line in the central k -space region.
摘要:
In a magnetic resonance method, a localizing magnetic field gradient (GL) is determined suitable for acquiring a first resonant species magnetic resonance localized to a first sampling region (Rm1). A second sampling region (Rm2) defined by the localizing magnetic field gradient for a second resonant species magnetic resonance is determined. The second sampling region is spatially shifted from the first sampling region due to different gyromagnetic ratios of the first and second resonant species magnetic resonances. At least the second sampling region is displayed together with an image (62) of a subject disposed in the main magnetic field.
