摘要:
Scanning operation of acquiring data by repeating a scan based on the same encoding pattern at least once by using an R wave occurring at time T0 as a trigger is executed with respect to all encoding patterns. The necessary number of data for image reconstruction are extracted from MR data acquired by temporally retrospecting from the R wave occurrence time (time T1) next to the R wave (time T0) used as the trigger on the basis of the obtained data, data acquisition time information, and the R wave time. The extracted data are then rearranged to generate a data set for imaging the movement of the heart which is associated with end-diastole after the occurrence of the R wave used as the trigger, thereby performing image reconstruction.

An MRI apparatus includes an imaging signal acquisition unit, a motion signal acquisition unit, a motion amount determination unit, a motion correction unit and an image reconstruction unit. The imaging signal acquisition unit acquires MR signals as imaging signals. The motion signal acquisition unit repetitively acquires MR signals having PE amount less than that of the imaging signals as motion signals. The motion amount determination unit obtains a motion amount using the motion signals. The motion correction unit performs correction processing of the imaging signals in accordance with the motion amount. The image reconstruction unit reconstructs an image using the imaging signals after the correction processing.
摘要:
Data acquisition based on the same MRI encoding pattern is repeated at least once for each R wave occurring at time T0 used as a trigger. The necessary number of data for image reconstruction are extracted as subsets of a complete MRI data set from the resulting plural sets of acquired MRI by temporally retrospecting from the next R wave occurrence time (time T1) after the R wave (time T0) used as the trigger. The extracted data subsets are then rearranged to generate a complete composite MRI data set which is then used for image reconstruction of heart movement associated with end-diastole after the occurrence of the triggering R wave.

An active shield type gradient coil apparatus comprises main coils for generating a gradient magnetic field and shield coils for generating a magnetic field to reduce the leak magnetic field from the main coils. In the active shield type gradient coil apparatus, a stimulation output section for outputting stimulation to a subject is incorporated. In this incorporation, the main coils are arranged at the outside of an area sandwiched between the stimulation output section and the subject such that the simulation can be transmitted to the subject from the stimulation output section without being blocked by the main coils. By this arrangement, both the use of the active shield type as the gradient coil apparatus and good transmission of stimulation to the subject can be realized.

According to one embodiment, a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes a spectrum acquisition unit, a resonance frequency acquisition unit and an imaging unit. The spectrum acquisition unit is configured to acquire frequency spectra of magnetic resonance signals from an object while changing a suppression effect or an enhancing effect of signals from a specific material. The resonance frequency acquisition unit is configured to obtain a resonance frequency of the specific material or another material based on an index representing a difference in intensities of signals from the specific material or the another material between the frequency spectra. The imaging unit is configured to perform imaging using a radio frequency pulse having a center frequency set to the resonance frequency of the specific material or the another material.

摘要:
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus generates an MR signal from an object by applying a gradient field pulse generated by a gradient field coil and a high-frequency magnetic field pulse generated by a high-frequency coil to the object in a static field, and reconstructs an image on the basis of the MR signal. The gradient field coil is housed in a sealed vessel. The internal air in the sealed vessel is exhausted by the pump to prevent noise. By controlling the operation of the pump using a control circuit, noise in imaging operation can be reduced more effectively.
