Embodiment 1

[0076] figure 2 and image 3 It is a schematic diagram and a flow chart of the magnetic resonance image reconstruction method of Embodiment 1 of the present invention. like image 3 As shown, the specific process is as follows:

[0077] Step S001: Acquire fully sampled original K-space of several channels. Each data point in the fully-sampled original K-space has been sampled; or the under-sampled k-space of several channels is collected, and the full-sampled original K-space is obtained by using the correlation method.

[0078] Said correlation methods include, but are not limited to, parallel acquisition reconstruction methods and half-Fourier reconstruction methods.

Embodiment 2

[0105] As mentioned in the background technology, some sequences, such as SE sequences, in order to avoid the influence of FID signals during the acquisition process, adopt the phase cycle method to acquire magnetic resonance signals, so that the FID signals of the odd and even lines in the original K space are positive and negative. on the contrary. Although the acquisition of magnetic resonance signals (K-space data) using the phase cycle method can achieve the effect of moving the FID artifacts to the edge of the image domain, it still cannot remove the FID artifacts. These FID artifacts can be completely removed by using the method of the present invention.

[0106] This embodiment focuses on the application of the method proposed by the present invention in image reconstruction of SE sequences with FID artifacts.

[0122] In the first embodiment, if the acquired K-space is under-sampled, the correlation method is used to obtain the original K-space with full sampling, and then the pre-processing grouping and subsequent image reconstruction are performed. For the under-sampled K-space, another image reconstruction method can also be used: extract the sampled data in the under-sampled K-space, perform preprocessing grouping and subsequent processing on the sampled data, and replace the processed data with The original undersampling of the sampled data in the original K-space, followed by subsequent image reconstruction, can also achieve the corresponding effect. This embodiment focuses on the specific steps of reconstructing the image in this case.

Abstract

The invention discloses a magnetic resonance image reconstruction method and device, comprising the following steps: acquiring original K-spaces of several channels; performing preprocessing and grouping on the original K-spaces of each channel according to the same rules to obtain grouped K-spaces, each A group of K-spaces includes part of the sampled data points in the original K-space, and data to be filled; use the original K-space data to calculate the combination coefficient, and utilize the parallel acquisition and reconstruction method for each of the data points to be filled in each group of K-spaces Filling data for filling; combining the grouped K-space data or grouped images after filling to obtain images of each channel; merging images of each channel to obtain a final image. Through the above method, the weight of the channel with low signal-to-noise ratio in the image reconstruction calculation process can be effectively suppressed, thereby improving the overall signal-to-noise ratio of the image, and at the same time, artifacts caused by differences in the properties of K-space data lines can be removed, such as in the SE sequence FID artifacts.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging), in particular to a method and a device for reconstructing images acquired in parallel with magnetic resonance imaging. 【Background technique】 [0002] In the process of MRI multi-channel acquisition image reconstruction, methods such as SOS are generally used to simply merge the data acquired by each channel. The disadvantage of this method is that the weight of channels with low signal-to-noise ratio is not well suppressed during the merging process, thus affecting the overall imaging quality. [0003] On the other hand, some sequences, such as SE sequences, in order to avoid the influence of the FID signal during the acquisition process, adopt the method of phase cycle, which makes the properties of the acquisition lines in K space different, such as figure 1 As shown, the odd and even line FID signals are opposite in positive and ...
