Method for controlling data acquisition and image reconstruction during continuous MR imaging

摘要

An MRI system performs a real-time scan in which image frames are produced as the image is moved to different locations in the patient. The location at which each set of image data is acquired is compared, and image data acquired at the same location are combined to improve image quality. An autonex feature enables averaging of successive image data acquisitions and a frame rate feature enables combining of partial NEX acquisitions.
