Magnetic resonance diagnosis apparatus and data acquisition method of magnetic resonance spectroscopy

摘要

A magnetic resonance diagnosis apparatus automatically calculates an application region of a prepulse based on image data including a region of interest of an object generated before application of a prepulse. The prepulse is applied to the automatically calculated application region. A magnetic resonance signal is then received from a region including the region of interest, and magnetic resonance spectrum data is generated indicative of concentration distribution of metabolic substances in the region of interest.

1. A magnetic resonance diagnosis apparatus performing “generation of image data of an object by magnetic resonance imaging”, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the magnetic resonance diagnosis apparatus comprising:
an application region calculation unit configured to automatically calculate an application region of a spatially selective prepulse based on “image data including a region of interest of the object generated by magnetic resonance imaging before application of a prepulse”; and a data generation unit configured to receive a magnetic resonance signal from a data acquisition region including the region of interest after applying the prepulse according to the application region automatically calculated by the application region calculation unit, and generate magnetic resonance spectrum data indicative of concentration distribution per metabolic substance in the region of interest based on the magnetic resonance signal.
