METHOD AND APPARATUS OF MULTI-ECHO MR DATA ACQUISITION WITH NON-DISCRETE FLIP ANGLE TRAIN

摘要

An imaging technique is disclosed to reduce ringing artifacts from amplitude decay in MR multi-echo acquisition. A flip angle train is determined to match scan parameters for an MR scan to acquire MR data from a given tissue. Reducing the effects of amplitude decay in the echo signal reduces ringing artifacts and thereby improves image quality.
