METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACQUIRING IMAGE DATA FROM A SUBJECT USING A MAGNETIC RESONANCE SEQUENCE HAVING AN ADIABATIC RADIO-FREQUENCY

摘要

In a method and apparatus for acquiring magnetic resonance image data of an object by execution of a magnetic resonance data acquisition sequence that includes at least one adiabatic radio-frequency pulse, at least one parameter for the object under investigation is acquired that is specific to the object under investigation. At least one pulse parameter of the at least one adiabatic radio-frequency pulse is adjusted using the at least one parameter for the object under investigation. Magnetic resonance image data of the object under investigation are acquired by execution of the magnetic resonance sequence, using the at least one adiabatic radio-frequency pulse with the adjusted at least one pulse parameter.

1. A method for acquiring magnetic resonance data from an object, comprising:
providing a computer with an electronic designation of at least one parameter of an object that is specific to the object; in said computer, using said at least one parameter that is specific to the object to adjust at least one pulse parameter of an adiabatic radio-frequency pulse in a magnetic resonance data acquisition sequence that will be executed by a magnetic resonance scanner in order to acquire magnetic resonance data from the object; and from said computer, operating said magnetic resonance scanner to acquire said magnetic resonance data from the object using the adiabatic radio-frequency pulse with the adjusted at least one pulse parameter, and making the acquired image data available from the computer in electronic form as a data file.
