Problems solved by technology
For water-fat separation imaging, the phase and time dependence of the magnetization vectors of water and fat components require precise control of radio frequency pulse and gradient pulse technology, while the excitation and acquisition methods of long echo trains are due to hardware imperfections and eddy current fields and Maxwell field effects can produce a significantly larger accumulation of phase errors

Abstract
The invention discloses a super-fast sectional type single-shot water-fat separation method. Super-fast chemical shift imaging sequence, signal analysis model, echo amplitude attenuation compensation methods as well as rapid phase unwrapping and precision correction technologies are applied to a magnetic resonance imagingsystem, thereby realizing water-fat separation enhanced scanning and thin-layer water-fat separation imaging. The scanning efficiency can be improved substantially and image artifacts can be eliminated based on phase correction. And with a two-dimensional version, clinical application of chemical shift imaging in enhanced scanning can be realized. The method can be used for scanning of the infant or hyperactivity patient.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical magnetic resonance imaging, in particular to an ultra-fast segmented single-shot water-fat separation method. Background technique [0002] In medical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), chemical shift imaging (also known as spectral imaging) is more beneficial than conventional selective fat magnetization saturation, water selective excitation, and short TI recovery (STIR) fat suppression imaging techniques in the lesion and its surroundings. Clear display of tissue, for RF field B 1 There is no special requirement for uniformity and magnetic field strength and no loss of image signal-to-noise ratio. It can also determine the relative proportion of fat and water in tissue. Dixon water-lipid separation technology is one of the chemical shift imaging techniques. Two-point and three-point Dixon water-lipid separation imaging technologies based on spin echo are widely used in clinical practice, but th...
