NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGE ACQUISITION AND DISPLAY

摘要

A method for image acquisition and display by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging, allowing display of images of an anatomical region along section planes or slices having different positions with respect to another, which method includes carrying out at least one three dimensional Magnetic Resonance Imaging for acquiring three dimensional anatomical data in the form of a three dimensional voxel array of unitary volumetric image elements in a user defined image volume containing at least part of the anatomical region to be studied and having a predetermined orientation reference; selecting relative to the user defined image volume one or more section planes along which an image of the anatomical region or part thereof in the defined volume is to be displayed; reconstructing from the three dimensional voxel array the image along each of the one or more section planes; displaying the image or images as a two dimensional image.
