Abstract

The invention provides a method for measuring an inversion-recovery sequence T1 under a water-fat mixed system and relates to the technology of magnetic resonance imaging. The method comprises the following steps: 1, collecting a multi-echo image, performing water-fat separation on the image, calculating the fat proton density percentage of each pixel or ROI; 2, collecting a free attenuation signal; 3, performing multi-parameter fitting on the collected free attenuation signal after the fat proton density percentage of the pixel or ROI is calculated, and calculating relaxation features of water and fat to solve the defect that traditional inversion-recovery T1 measurement cannot complete tissue T1 measurement under the situation of fat existence. The method can be used for measuring the T1of a water tissue and the T1 of fat under the situation of a sufficient proportion of a fat signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to magnetic resonance imaging technology, in particular to a method for measuring reverse recovery sequence T1 in a water-fat mixed system. Background technique [0002] T 1 Relaxation time is an important parameter in magnetic resonance imaging, which characterizes the recovery speed of the magnetization vector along the direction of the main magnetic field in magnetic resonance imaging. Slow relaxation of free water and body fluids, T 1 A long time; and in biological tissues, because the water part is bound to the protein, the T 1 relaxation, and thus the relaxation time is typically a few hundred milliseconds. There is a balance between free water and bound water in normal tissues, but pathological conditions can disturb this balance, making T 1 The relaxation time changes. Therefore, T 1 Relaxation time can be used as an important marker to judge the progress of the disease. T 1 Quantitative technology has been widely ...
