    摘要: In a method and apparatus for the correction of artifacts in magnetic resonance images (MR) acquired with an MR pulse sequence in which gradients are switched simultaneously during the radiation of at least one non-selective excitation pulse, measurement data acquired with the pulse sequence in k-space are loaded into a processor, in which a perturbation matrix is determined on the basis of spatial and k-space point data of the acquired measurement data and the gradients used during the excitation. A corrected image is calculated from the acquired measurement data in k-space and the perturbation matrix, with the calculation of the corrected image including a matrix inversion of the perturbation matrix. The corrected image is then stored or displayed.

    摘要: In a magnetic resonance system and method the imaging area is readout by: (a) switching at least two phase coding gradients in respective spatial directions, (b) at the full strength of the phase coding gradients, radiating a non-slice-selective RF excitation pulse, (c) after a time t1 after the last radiated excitation pulse, acquiring echo signals entered as raw data points along the radial k-space trajectory predetermined by the strength of the phase coding gradients, (d) repeating (a) through (c) with different phase coding gradients until k-space corresponding to the imaging area is read out in a first region along radial k-space trajectories, depending on the time t1, and (e) reading out a remainder of k-space that corresponds to the imaging area, that is not covered by the first region of k-space and includes the k-space center, in a different manner than by (a) through (d).

    摘要: In a method and a pulse sequence optimization device to determine a pulse sequence for a magnetic resonance system, a pulse sequence is selected for optimization that includes a number of radio-frequency pulses and a number of gradient pulses chronologically coordinated therewith. An automatic analysis of the pulse sequence takes place to identify fixed point/time periods in the pulse sequence that are to be left unmodified, and modifiable time intervals in the pulse sequence that may be optimized. An automatic optimization of gradient pulses in the modifiable time intervals takes place according to a predetermined optimization criterion, while keeping the length of modifiable time intervals constant.

    摘要: In a method and a pulse sequence determination device to determine a pulse sequence for a magnetic resonance system, control protocol parameter values are initially acquired. A determination of k-space trajectory node points within k-space then takes place in a processor on the basis of the control protocol parameter values. The determination of the pulse sequence then takes place on the basis of the k-space trajectory node points. A method for operating a magnetic resonance system uses such a pulse sequence, and a magnetic resonance system embodies such a pulse sequence determination device.
