MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGE PROCESSOR

摘要

An interesting region such as a penumbra region is written precisely without requiring an extra photography instrument or method when perfusion is evaluated. A magnetic resonance image processor connected with magnetic resonance equipment outputting a magnetic resonance image comprises a means for setting a plurality of b values representative of the sensitivity of diffusion including a range of 0-1000 (s/mm<SUP>2</SUP>), a means for collecting diffusion weighted image series corresponding to each b value from the magnetic resonance equipment, and a means for extracting the component image of an interesting region such as a penumbra region by performing signal processing of the diffusion weighted image series thus collected.
