    摘要: The invention relates to an MR method in which a navigator pulse is generated to excite a nuclear magnetization in a spatially limited volume by at least one RF pulse and at least two gradient magnetic fields having gradients which extend differently in respect of time and space. After the navigator pulse excitation, at least one MR signal is received from the volume in conjunction with a further gradient magnetic field for evaluation. In order to enhance the navigator pulse, a variation in time is imposed on the gradient magnetic fields in order to generate at least two MR signals which correspond to an excitation in the k space along mutually offset trajectories. The MR signals are combined.

    摘要: A virtual coil emulation method is used in a magnetic resonance imaging scan for acquiring a magnetic resonance image of an object (10). The scan is performed by an MR system (1) using a physical coil arrangement (9; 11; 12; 13) including a set of individual transmit coils. The coils are adapted for transmission of a desired RF transmit field to the object (10) for magnetic resonance spin excitation of the object (10). Each coil is associated with a physical transmit channel. The RF transmit field corresponds to a virtual arrangement of two or more of the coils. Virtual transmit channel properties include virtual transmit channel weights are assigned to the RF transmit field which describe the virtual complex RF field amplitudes with respect to each individual coil of the virtual coil arrangement to be applied to the physical coils (9; 11; 12; 13) for generating the RF transmit field.

    摘要: The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus including an array of two or more RF antennas for transmitting RF pulses to and receiving MR signals from a subject positioned in an examination volume, and where the RF antennas have spatial transmit and receive sensitivity profiles. The apparatus is configured to control the temporal succession, the phase, and the amplitude of the RF feeding of each individual RF antenna. The apparatus is also configured to determine the phases and amplitudes from the spatial transmit sensitivity profiles of the RF antennas, and reconstruct a MR image from a combination of the received MR signals received via the individual RF antennas and from the spatial receive sensitivity profiles of the RF antennas. Further, the apparatus is configured to determine the spatial transmit sensitivity profiles of the RF antennas from the spatial receive sensitivity profiles of the RF antennas, or vice versa.
