MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING APPARATUS AND MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING METHOD

摘要

In order to provide technology for improving image quality by selectively exciting only the intended region with high precision whether in 2-D spectral-spatial excitation or 3-D spectral-spatial excitation, the present invention accepts the selection of a k-space trajectory in which side lobe excitation of regions outside the region of interest is limited. When doing so, the excitation regions of the selected k-space trajectory are displayed to the operator and the operator is able to adjust the excitation regions through the display. After the adjustment of the excitation regions by the operator is applied, the multi-dimensional spectral-spatial excitation pulse is stabilized.
