Problems solved by technology

[0014] However, as mentioned above, diffusion-weighted imaging usually needs to acquire multiple images with different b values, resulting in large differences in image contrast; in addition, different b values ​​and methods cause different eddy current field distributions, resulting in different degrees and types of image distortions. Exactly the same, image distortion correction has to be done image by image separately, which brings extra reference scan and increases scan time

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an image distortion correcting method and device. The method comprises the following steps of: extracting an image contour of a source image; obtaining distortion information according to the image contour; and correcting the source image by using the distortion information so as to register the source image with a target image. By using the method and device, disclosed by the invention, the influences of the contrast, b value, direction variation and the like in a diffusion weighted magnetic resonance image on the correction are avoided; moreover, additional reference scanning is not needed so that convenient, fast and accurate image distortion correction is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of diffusion weighted imaging, in particular to a method and a device for correcting distortion of an image formed by diffusion weighted imaging. Background technique [0002] Diffusion imaging is a very clinically valuable fMRI technique that detects the biological properties of water molecules or other molecules that can be diffused in human tissue with diffusion imaging in MRI equipment, thereby detecting many routine medical Lesions that cannot be found by imaging means (Non-Patent Document 1). Diffusion imaging is usually implemented using an echo planar imaging (EPI) sequence. The imaging speed of the EPI sequence is very fast, but it is easily affected by various artifacts, especially image distortion (Non-Patent Documents 2 and 3). In the EPI sequence, due to the main The image distortion caused by the additional magnetic field ΔB caused by the non-uniformity of the magnetic field in the frequency encoding di...
