    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging method is proposed wherein the MR signal acquisition is performed by separate scanning of central (40) and peripheral (70) sectors. Central and peripheral sectors are selected in an individual plane in the k-space and optionally an intermediate sector (50) between the peripheral and central sectors is also selected. The center (O) in the k-space in the individual plane at issue is situated within the central sector. The scanning of the k-space commences outside the center of the k-space and before or during increasing contrast. Preferably, the scanning is timed such that the center of the k-space is reached at maximum contrast (MR angiography) or at the value zero of the longitudinal magnetization (MR inversion recovery). The central sector is advantageously scanned in a stochastic order. The peripheral sector may be scanned along a spiral-shaped trajectory, radial trajectories or along high-low ordered lines.

    摘要: In a magnetic resonance imaging method magnetic resonance signal samples are received for a predetermined field of view by a receiving antenna having a spatial sensitivity profile. The sampling in the k space corresponds to the predetermined field of view in the geometrical space. Folded-over images having folded-over pixel values are reconstructed from the sampled magnetic resonance signals. Pixel contributions for spatial positions within the predetermined field of view are calculated from the folded-over pixel values and the spatial sensitivity profile of the receiver antenna. The magnetic resonance image is formed from the pixel contributions for spatial positions within the predetermined field of view. Thus, aliasing or fold-over artefacts caused by a field of view that is too small are avoided.

    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging system comprises a signal acquisition system to acquire magnetic resonance signals. A reconstructor reconstructs magnetic resonance images from the acquired magnetic resonance signals. The signal acquisition system and/or the reconstructor are controlled to perform overhead activities separately from actual acquisition of the magnetic resonance signals notably for different contrast types. Accordingly, time efficient signal acquisition for multiple contrasts is achieved.
