    摘要: A magnetic resonance system has a patient receptacle and a base body. The patient receptacle has a subframe and a patient bed supported thereon so as to move a patient thereon through the base body. The base body has a basic field magnet system, a gradient system and an RF system that are operable to obtain an analog magnetic resonance signal from the patient. The patient receptacle has a signal conversion device composed of an A/D converter, a modulator, and a transmitter. The base body has a signal conversion device composed of a receiver and a demodulator. The A/D converter receives the magnetic resonance signal and digitizes it. The modulator modulates a carrier signal with the digitized magnetic resonance signal. The transmitter transmits the modulated carrier signal via an air gap to the receive. The receiver receives the transmitted carrier signal. The demodulator extracts the digitized magnetic resonance signal from the received carrier signal by demodulation and supplies it to an evaluation device for continuing evaluation.

    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 a method for producing an image of fat plaque employing nuclear magnetic resonance tomography, a radio-frequency excitation pulse is emitted with wavelet coding in the presence of a first gradient, refocusing pulses are emitted which are selective to the spectral frequency of fat, and the resulting nuclear magnetic resonance signals are read out in the presence of a further magnetic field gradient. An image of fat plaque with enhanced spatial resolution is thereby produced.

    摘要: A method, in the form of a pulse sequence for operating a magnetic resonance imaging tomography apparatus according to a modification of the echo planar method includes the generation of a read-out gradient consisting of sub-pulses having reversing polarity, the read-out gradient being activated in each scan after an RF excitation. A phase coding gradient, also consisting of a number of sub-pulses, is activated at each polarity change of the read-out gradient. The sub-pulses of the phase coding gradient have a polarity which alternates from sub-pulse to sub-pulse, and an amplitude-time area which increases in steps. An improved signal-to-noise ratio is achieved with this pulse sequence and N/2 ghosts are avoided.

    摘要: A method for operating a nuclear resonance imaging device given gradients of arbitrary shapes includes the steps of equidistantly sampling the nuclear magnetic resonance signals in the time domain with a sampling rate that satisfies the sampling theorem, the sampling taking place even given gradients having a non-rectangular pulse shape. Since non-equidistant sampling in the K-space would normally lead to image artifacts, the method includes the further step, to avoid such artifacts, of calculating measured values from the acquired samples by interpolation, these measured values being equidistant in the K-space, and being entered into a measurement matrix. The equidistant sampling in the K-space, which is complicated, is thus superfluous given gradients having an arbitrary pulse shape.

    摘要: A method for generating an image using nuclear magnetic resonance signals, which substantially eliminates the presence of so-called "N/2 ghosts," includes the steps of dividing a measurement matrix into a first sub-matrix containing the even-numbered rows of the measurement matrix and into a second sub-matrix having the odd-numbered rows of the measurement matrix, setting the entries in the remaining rows of the sub-matrices to zero, subjecting both sub-matrices to a Fourier transformation at least in the column direction, thereby generating respective intermediate image matrices, multiplying one of the intermediate image matrices by a factor which is calculated from the edge rows of the intermediate image matrices, and adding the intermediate image matrices after the multiplication.
