Abstract

The invention discloses a high-quality magnetic resonance image synthesis method. The method comprises the steps that the value range of echo time TE and sweeping repetition time TR in a magnetic resonance signal generation formula is expended to a negative number interval, and the contribution of proton density PD parameters is expanded to negative power. According to the method, the influence ofmeasurement errors of quantitative tissue parameters of magnetic resonance on the tissue contrast results of synthetic magnetic resonance images can be effectively reduced, and the tissue contrast ofthe synthetic magnetic resonance images can be significantly improved. By means of the method, the imaging quality of synthetic magnetic resonance can be significantly improved, and the detection effect in neuroscience and clinical pathological changes is promoted. The method is expected to improve the imaging quality of the synthetic magnetic resonance and promote its detection effect in neuroscience and clinical pathological changes finally.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of magnetic resonance imaging technology and image processing, in particular to a high-quality magnetic resonance image synthesis method. Background technique

[0002] Synthetic magnetic resonance imaging refers to the method of using quantitative magnetic resonance scanning analysis to obtain the magnetic resonance quantitative tissue parameters such as T1, T2, and PD of each voxel, and then using the magnetic resonance signal formula to generate various common magnetic resonance images with different contrasts. For example, formula (1) represents a signal formula of a spin echo (Spin Echo, SE) sequence. In the formula (1), S represents the magnetic resonance signal, PD (Proton Density) represents the proton density, T1 represents the longitudinal relaxation time, T2 represents the transverse relaxation time, TR (Repetition Time) represents the scan repetition time, TE (Echo Time) represents echo time. PD, T1, and ...
