System And Method For Improved Efficiency In Magnetic Resonance Elastography

摘要

A system and method for generating a magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) report includes a) acquiring MRE data from a subject including positively motion encoded medical imaging data and negatively motion encoded medical imaging data and b) deriving uncorrected difference medical imaging data from the MRE data for a given slice. The method also includes c) filtering the uncorrected difference medical imaging data to create filtered medical imaging data corrected for errors associated with phase ramps occurring during gradient switching used to derive the positively motion encoded medical imaging data and negatively motion encoded medical imaging data, d) generating a corrected difference image for the given slice from the filtered medical imaging data and the uncorrected difference medical imaging data, e) repeating steps b) through d) for each slice reflected in the MRE data, and f) generating a report of elastic properties of the subject from the corrected difference image.
