Abstract

The invention discloses a magnetic resonance imaging system eddy current compensation method, and belongs to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging. The method includes the following steps:a, a magnetic resonance spectrometer generates a waveform of a gradient magnetic field according to scanning sequence parameters and outputs the waveform to a gradient amplifier, drives a magnetic resonance scanner to work, and the magnetic resonance spectrometer collects magnetic resonance data; b, gradient trajectory correction is performed according to scanning sequence parameters and eddy current compensation parameters, i.e., the waveform of the gradient magnetic field which changes with time after being influenced by eddy currents is calculated, thereby obtaining a corrected K space trajectory; and c, gridding reconstruction is performed on the magnetic resonance data collected in Step a according to the corrected K space trajectory obtained in Step b or nonuniform Fourier transformation is utilized to reconstruct a magnetic resonance image. The method provided by the invention performs eddy current compensation based on software, avoids hardware input, and improves imaging quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging, in particular to an eddy current compensation method for a magnetic resonance imaging system. Background technique [0002] In the process of magnetic resonance imaging, the gradient magnetic field, the main magnetic field and the radio frequency magnetic field together constitute the three major elements of magnetic resonance imaging. The gradient magnetic field is generated by the gradient coil. The current in the gradient coil switches rapidly with time, which will generate eddy current in the surrounding conductor structure. The eddy current will generate a magnetic field that is constantly changing in space and time, which will distort the gradient field in the imaging area. And then affect the image quality, such as figure 1 As shown, the solid line in the figure is the waveform of the ideal gradient magnetic field, and the dotted line is the waveform affected by the edd...
