Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the case where the spatial unevenness of the large fat suppression effect appears in the image captured by a certain device, it is necessary to take measures (adjustment or parts replacement) that may be effective for various causes as described above. While confirming the improvement of the phenomenon, it takes a lot of labor

Abstract

A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit which performs imaging more than once with respect to an imaging target while changing a central frequency of a fat suppression pulse, a generation unit which generates a plurality of images based on magnetic resonance signals obtained by imaging performed more than once, and a calculation unit which calculates factor information of spatial inhomogeneity of a fat suppression effect based on the plurality of images.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging device that suppresses fat signals by applying fat suppression pulses and a method for analyzing the fat suppression effect of the magnetic resonance imaging device. Background technique [0002] As a fat suppression method for magnetic resonance imaging, a chemical shift selective (CHESS) method, a spatial-spectral excitation pulse method, and the like are known. [0003] In any of these fat-suppressing methods, spatial inhomogeneity of the fat-suppressing effect occurs. As a method for improving the spatial unevenness of the fat suppression effect, there is so-called current shimming. In current filling, the spatial distribution of the magnetic field is measured before imaging. Then, at the time of imaging, considering the spatial distribution of the magnetic field measured before imaging, a constant correction current is passed through the gradient magnetic field coil and the magnetic f...
