摘要： A magnetic resonance system that has a magnet system that generates magnetic fields in an excitation region, allowing nuclei in an examination subject in the excitation region to be excited to emit a magnetic resonance signal. A reception antenna device with multiple local coils for reception of the magnetic resonance signals is arranged in proximity to the examination subject, and has a base part and an attachment part. The attachment part can be placed on the base part such that the examination subject is located between the base part and the attachment part (6). The multiple local coils are respectively connected with an evaluation device for evaluation of magnetic resonance signals. To simply and reliably couple the antenna devices to an evaluation device with optimally few electrical conductors being located in the excitation region, the multiple local coils in the attachment part are respectively connected with the evaluation device via a base coupling element that is arranged at a predetermined base part location on the base part and an attachment coupling element is arranged at a predetermined attachment part location on the attachment part. The magnetic resonance signal received by the local coil can be fed to the evaluation device via the attachment coupling element and the base coupling element and as long as the attachment part is placed on the base part.

摘要： In the echo planar imaging (EPI) method of operating a nuclear magnetic resonance (magnetic resonance imaging) tomography apparatus, the necessary, rapid switching of gradients having a high amplitude usually cannot be achieved with square-wave gradients, and therefore a read-out gradient having a sinusoidal shape is generally used. Given a chronologically equidistant sampling of the nuclear magnetic resonance signal in the time domain, however, a sampling in the k-space with different rates is present. The bandwidth of the signal is proportional to the sampling rate in the k-space. In the method disclosed herein, bandwidth of a bandpass filter or a low-pass filter in the signal processing circuit for the nuclear magnetic resonance signal is adapted to the time dependent bandwith of the nuclear magnetic resonance signal, i.e., to the sampling rate in the k-space. The bandwidth is increased with increasing sampling rate. The signal-to-noise ratio is noticeably improved.

摘要翻译： 在操作核磁共振（磁共振成像）断层摄影装置的回波平面成像（EPI）方法中，通常使用方波梯度不能实现具有高振幅的梯度的必要的快速切换，因此读出 通常使用具有正弦形状的梯度。 然而，鉴于时域上的核磁共振信号的时间上等距离的采样，存在具有不同速率的k空间中的采样。 信号的带宽与k空间中的采样率成比例。 在本文公开的方法中，用于核磁共振信号的信号处理电路中的带通滤波器或低通滤波器的带宽适应于核磁共振信号的时间依赖带宽，即适应于 k空间。 带宽随采样率的增加而增加。 信噪比明显提高。

摘要： An examination subject is irradiated with a sequence of RF pulses. Negative gradient pulses G.sub.z3 and G.sub.y4, as well as a phase-coding gradient G.sub.x2 are generated preceding each RF pulse. Negative gradient pulses G.sub.z2 and G.sub.y1, as well as a phase-coding gradient G.sub.x1, are generated following each RF pulse. The phase-coding gradient G.sub.x1 is inverted relative to the phase-coding gradient G.sub.x2. The negative gradient pulse G.sub.y1 is followed by a positive gradient pulse G.sub.y2 which serves as a read-out gradient during which a first signal S.sub.1 is received. A positive gradient pulse G.sub.y3 is generated preceding the negative gradient pulse G.sub.y4, the positive gradient pulse G.sub.y3 serving as a read-out gradient during which a second signal S.sub.2 is received. Two signals having different T.sub.2 weighting are thus obtained in each measuring sequence, without extending the measuring time. Two images having different T.sub.2 contrast, and thus increased diagnostic value, can thus be produced.

摘要： In order to increase the signal to noise ratio, and thus increase the quality of images produced during pediatric MRI, a pediatric RF coil assembly includes a head coil and a flexible body coil in a single dedicated device shaped and sized for a child. The flexible body coil may be operable to at least partially surround and abut the body of the child located on the pediatric RF coil assembly, while the head coil may at least partially surround and abut the head of the child located on the pediatric RF coil assembly. In order to optimize workflow, the child may be positioned on the pediatric RF coil assembly in a first room and moved to a second room including an MRI system after the child is brought to sleep or sedated in the first room. The pediatric RF coil assembly and the child may be moved to the second room using a handle rotatably attached to the pediatric RF coil assembly, and may be positioned on a patient table of the MRI system when the imaging process is to begin.
