Abstract

The invention provides a method for optimizing radio frequency pulses in a fast spin echo pulse sequence. According to the method, spin echoes and stimulated echoes are separated by utilizing the difference of the action of a disturbed phase gradient on the spin echoes and the stimulated echoes, and the stimulated echoes or the spin echoes disappear through reverse pulses with different tilt angles, so that independent adjustment of the spin echoes and the stimulated echoes is realized; and the phase of the reverse pulse is optimized by using the relationship among the spin echoes, stimulatedechoes and reverse pulses in phase. According to the method, the influence of radio frequency field heterogeneity on the FSE sequence parameter optimization process can be reduced, the radio frequencypulse optimization efficiency is improved, and the method is particularly suitable for a high-field magnetic resonance imaging system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging, and relates to a method for optimizing radio frequency pulses in a fast spin echo pulse sequence. Background technique [0002] Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology has become a very useful tool in medical diagnosis. Usually, in an MRI instrument, when the sample to be tested (such as human tissue) is placed in a static magnetic field B 0 (B 0 The direction is defined as the Z-axis direction of the Cartesian coordinate system) when equilibrium is reached, the atomic nuclei (nuclear spins) in the sample are affected by the B 0 Polarized to produce a macroscopic magnetization vector M 0 ; the M 0 Under the excitation of radio frequency pulses, it is rotated to the horizontal plane (XY plane), and then precesses around the Z axis. A receiving coil is placed around the tested sample, and it will induce the precession signal of the magnetization vector. After the magnet...
