METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING

摘要

In a method and apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging of an examination object, a control computer is provided with a designation of a first recording region, which is cuboidal. The computer automatically determines a second recording region that represents an adjustment of the first recording region such that the second recording region is cube-shaped. Magnetic resonance scan data are acquired from the entire second recording region. Magnetic resonance image data are reconstructed from the acquired magnetic resonance scan data. An image region of the magnetic resonance image data is supplied in electronic form from the computer.

主权项

1. A method for operating a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising:
providing an electronic designation to a computer that selects a first recording region, which is cuboidal, of an examination subject; in said computer, automatically determining a second recording region within said subject that is an adjustment of the first recording region, with said second recording region being cube-shaped; embodying said second recording region in a magnetic resonance data acquisition sequence and operating a magnetic resonance scanner with said magnetic resonance sequence to acquire magnetic resonance scan data from an entirety of said second recording region; providing said magnetic resonance scan data to an image reconstruction computer and, in said image reconstruction computer, reconstructing magnetic resonance image data from the magnetic resonance scan data; and making an image region of the magnetic resonance image data available in electronic form as a data file from said image reconstruction computer.
