    摘要: An NMR imaging method which provides a three-dimensional image representative of the two-dimensional distribution of nuclear spin species resolved by chemical shift or the local spectra resolved by two-dimensional location. After the excitation of nuclear spins and the phase-encoding by application of a field gradient G.sub.y, a periodically inverting field gradient G.sub.x is generated to yield a continuous echo train. The echo train is sampled and separated into data of odd-numbered echoes and data of even-numbered echoes which data are in turn reconstructed into two-dimensional data arrays, respectively. The data thus reconstructed are three-dimensional Fourier-transformed.

    摘要: A method wherein the requirement for the amplitude of the oscillating gradient magnetic field is relaxed by reconstructing an image while using simultaneously echoes S.sub.p (k.sub.x, y) produced in the case where the positive oscillating gradient magnetic field is applied to the object to be tested and echoes S.sub.N (k.sub.x, y) produced in the case where the negative is applied thereto, i.e. by using data points on segments of a trajectory of data points ascending from left to right in the spatial frequency domain and those on segments of a trajectory of data points ascending from right to left. That is, the image M(x, y) is obtained by Fourier-transforming at first the echoes S.sub.p (k.sub.x, k.sub.y) and S.sub.N (k.sub.x, k.sub.y) with respect to k.sub.y, multiplying complex numbers a.sub.1 and a.sub.2 to g.sub.p (k.sub.x, y) and g.sub.N (k.sub.x, y) obtained by this transformation; adding the results thus obtained, i.e. forming g(k.sub.x, y)=a.sub.1 g.sub.p (k.sub.x, y)+a.sub.2 g.sub.N (k.sub.x, y); and finally Fourier-transforming this g(k.sub.x, y) with respect to k.sub.x.

    摘要: An NMR spectroscopic imaging method of obtaining separate spin distribution images for respective spectral components of the spectrum of an NMR signal caused by the chemical shift of nuclides of interest in an object includes providing for a transversal magnetization signal of the object placed in a static magnetic field. A position of the signal in a phase domain is translated in a K-space from the origin thereof. Further, the signal is sampled while rotating a position of the signal in the K-space plural times on a certain circle in the K-space by applying a rotating field gradient, thereby to obtain a group of signal data. Signal data trains each of which is composed of signal data present at the same position on the K-space in the signal data group obtained by the sampling during the plural signal rotations, is subjected to Fourier transformations, respectively, thereby effecting a spectral analysis of the NMR signal.

After excitation of nuclear spins, the gradient magnetic field Gx for phase-encoding is applied and there is repeated a sequence of measuring and obtaining an echo train of spin-echoes with a constant gradient magnetic field Gx and a periodically-inverted gradient magnetic field Gy, as varying the amount of encoding, so as to obtain the three-dimensional imaging by the Fourier-conversion. Moreover, after the selective excitation of spins within an X-Y surface, a 180.degree. radio frequency pulse is applied. As varying the time difference .tau..sub..epsilon. between the interval from the excitation until the application of the 180.degree. radio frequency pulse and the interval from the application thereof until a peak of a first echo of an echo train, three-dimensional imaging is carried out with a chemical shift axis as one axis by repeating the sequence and accomplishing Fourier-conversion with .tau..sub..epsilon. as a numerical variable.
