Embodiment 1

[0086] This embodiment provides a method for calculating the magnetic resonance gradient field stimulation level, using FPGA to calculate the magnetic resonance gradient field stimulation level.

[0087] The magnetic resonance gradient field includes three mutually perpendicular gradient fields, which are respectively the first direction, the second direction and the third direction gradient field. For the convenience of description, in the embodiment of the present invention, the X-axis, Y-axis, and Expressed in the form of the Z axis. It can be understood that, the first, second and third directions and the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis can also adopt other corresponding relationships, or the first, second and third directions can also be used In other ways, as long as it can represent three mutually perpendicular gradient fields.

Abstract

The invention discloses a magnetic resonance gradient field stimulation level calculating method and apparatus, and a magnetic resonance gradient field control method and system. The magnetic resonance gradient field stimulation level calculating method employs a field programmable gate array to calculate the stimulation level of a magnetic resonance gradient field. The magnetic resonance gradient field control method involves controlling whether a magnetic resonance system stops scanning or not according to a calculating result of the stimulation level of the magnetic resonance gradient field. By using the calculation method and apparatus, and the control method and system, the operation efficiency can be improved, higher real-time monitoring can be performed on the gradient field, the monitoring quality is improved, and the influence exerted by magnetic resonance scanning on the health of a scanning object is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnetic resonance, in particular to a method, device, control method and system for calculating stimulation levels of magnetic resonance gradient fields. Background technique [0002] In magnetic resonance imaging systems, gradient fields are required for layer selection and phase encoding, but the human body will have physiological responses to rapidly changing magnetic fields. Excessive changes in the magnetic field can cause discomfort to the human body and even endanger life. Therefore, online real-time monitoring of the gradient field is required. Once the threshold of the human stimulation level is exceeded, the scanning is stopped immediately. [0003] In order to realize the real-time monitoring of the gradient field, it is necessary to calculate the actual stimulation level of the gradient field to the human body in real time. For the three-dimensional space, there are three mutually pe...
