    摘要: MR image data relating to a volume section of an examination object is determined. Image data relating to this volume section is also captured by way of a true-to-original tomographic method. The MR image data is compared with the image data. Depending on the results of this comparison, either the MR image data is corrected such that the MR image data matches the image data as closely as possible, or parameters that are used during the capture of the MR image data are modified such that, when the MR image data of the predefined volume section is captured again using the modified parameters, the newly captured MR image data matches the image data as closely as possible.

    摘要: In a method and magnetic resonance (MR) apparatus to image a partial region of an examination subject by means of a multislice measurement, which partial region includes at least two measurement slices, and is located at least in part at the edge of a field of view of the magnetic resonance apparatus, for each voxel to be optimized that is located at the edge of the field of view, a gradient field is configured for each measurement slice of the partial region that is to be measured and is used to acquire magnetic resonance data in the multislice measurement. The gradient field is configured so as to cause a nonlinearity of the gradient field and a B0 field inhomogeneity to cancel at each of the aforementioned voxel to be optimized at the partial region at the edge of the field of view. An image of the partial region of the examination subject is determined from the magnetic resonance data acquired in this manner.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for calculating a spatially resolved value of an absorption parameter for a positron emission tomography (PET) scan of an examination object via magnetic resonance tomography (MRT). Magnetic resonance data is acquired within a first region lying within a field of view of a magnetic resonance system and within a second region bordering on the first and lying at the edge of the field of view. The method includes the spatially resolved calculation of a first value of the absorption parameter from the first MR data within the first region and of a second value from the second MR data within the second region. A three-dimensional parameter map is obtained from the first value. This parameter map is extended by the second value such that within the first region and the second region the parameter map has the value of the absorption parameter in spatially resolved form.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for determining radiation attenuation as a result of an object in a positron emission tomography scanner. In at least one embodiment, a phantom object is arranged in the positron emission tomography scanner during the method. First raw radiation data of the phantom object is acquired while the object is not arranged in the positron emission tomography scanner. A first image of the phantom object is calculated from the first raw radiation data. The object then is arranged in the positron emission tomography scanner (2) and preliminary radiation attenuation of the object is identified. Second raw radiation data of the phantom object is acquired while the object is arranged in the positron emission tomography scanner. A second image of the phantom object is calculated from the second raw radiation data taking into account the preliminary radiation attenuation. The radiation attenuation is determined on the basis of the first image and the second image.

During at least one embodiment of the method, a gradient field is produced such that a nonlinearity in the gradient field and a B0-field inhomogeneity cancel at a predetermined point at the edge of the field of view. Magnetic resonance data, which contains the predetermined point at the edge of the field of view, is acquired with the aid of the gradient field. An image of the portion of the examination object at the predetermined point is determined from the magnetic resonance data.
