Abstract

Provided is a method of improving multichannel radio frequency coil performances, comprising the steps of: before magnetic resonance scanning, adding a magnetic meta-material into a multichannel radio frequency coil; under the condition of no radio frequency emission power, collecting the noise of each channel in the multichannel radio frequency coil; calculating the noise coupling matrix of the multichannel radio frequency coil after adding the magnetic meta-material; and in an image reconstruction process, employing the noise coupling matrix to compensate for the coupling of the multichannel radio frequency coil. The method collects the noise of each channel of the multichannel radio frequency coil, calculates the noise coupling matrix thereof, and employs the noise coupling matrix to compensate for the coupling deterioration of the multichannel radio frequency coil in image reconstruction, thereby improving multichannel radio frequency coil performances when the magnetic meta-material is added into the multichannel radio frequency coil, increasing an image signal to noise ratio and a resolution ratio, and improving image quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to magnetic resonance imaging, in particular to a method for improving the performance of a multi-channel radio frequency coil. Background technique [0002] The performance of metamaterials is mainly described by electromagnetic parameters such as dielectric constant, magnetic permeability and refractive index. The magnetic metamaterial is a metamaterial whose microstructure responds magnetically to an electromagnetic field, and it has the characteristic of artificially controlling the magnetic permeability. Magnetic metamaterials can adjust the equivalent magnetic permeability through the magnetic resonant structure (such as split resonant ring) and its deformation structure. When the electromagnetic wave is incident, the split resonant ring can form an equivalent LC resonant circuit in the structure, so as to realize the control and restraint of the electromagnetic wave through magnetic resonance, and realize the enhancement e...
