Abstract

The invention discloses a system for adjusting the brightness of an image in a magnetic resonance imaging system. The system comprises a reconstruction module, a searching module, a setting module, a calculation module and a conversion module, wherein the reconstruction module is used for combining signals of receiving coils and carrying out reconstruction to obtain an original image; the searching module is used for searching for the brightness range [Smin, Smax] of the original image; the setting module is used for setting a brightness limit F, F is smaller than 2N, F is a positive integer and N is the image digit; the calculation module is used for calculating a brightness factor alpha, alpha=F / (Smax-Smin); and the conversion module is used for using a formula Id=alpha*Ir to convert the original image into a DICOM (Digital Imaging Communications in Medicine) image, Id is the brightness of the DICOM image, and Ir is the brightness of the original image. The signal brightness part of the image can be ensured to overflow through automatically calculating the brightness factor, and the maximal gray scale range of the magnetic resonance DICOM image can be used maximally.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to an image brightness adjustment system and method in a magnetic resonance system. 【technical background】 [0002] Modern magnetic resonance imaging equipment usually uses multi-channel receiving coils for imaging. The signals received by multiple channels are combined and then converted into magnetic resonance images in the format of Digital Imaging Communications in Medicine (DICOM for short) for storage and transmission. For magnetic resonance DICOM images, they are usually stored as 12-bit integers, that is, the image has 4096 gray levels. The image after merging multi-channel data is called the original image, the format of the data is floating point type (single precision or double precision), and the brightness range of the signal varies greatly, it is necessary to set a proportional coefficient α (brightness factor) to be Raw images are converted into 12-bit integer DICOM data. If the brightness factor is set too hig...
