Problems solved by technology

MRI compatible devices for human intervention / implantation are generally made of metal. Since metals are easily magnetized in a magnetic field and will generate a local magnetic field, the MRI compatible device and its neighborhood will show negative contrast in the image. Contrast is indistinguishable from tissue voids and areas of low signal-to-noise ratio, preventing precise localization and evaluation of MR-compatible devices
[0003] In recent years, in order to accurately locate and evaluate MRI compatible devices, researchers have proposed a series of MRI positive contrast imaging techniques, using the conjugate gradient algorithm to iteratively solve the magnetic susceptibility map, but the conjugate gradient algorithm converges slowly, especially in the vicinity of The optimal solution requires multiple loop iterations, resulting in slower image reconstruction time

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention relate to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging, and provide a magnetic resonance positive contrast imaging method and device. The method comprises: acquiringa local field map around a target tissue, collected by a magnetic resonance scanner; according to the local field map, establishing a nonlinear reconstruction model of magnetic susceptibility image reconstruction; decomposing the nonlinear reconstruction model into a first sub-problem and a second sub-problem; and performing regularized constraint reconstruction on the first sub-problem and the second sub-problem, so as to reconstruct a magnetic susceptibility image. Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the invention decompose the complex reconstruction problem into the two sub-problems with lower complexity to solve, thereby reducing the reconstruction complexity and improving the image reconstruction speed.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of magnetic resonance imaging, and in particular, to a magnetic resonance positive contrast imaging method and device. Background technique [0002] Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a technology that uses the principle of magnetic resonance to perform tomographic imaging of the human body. Its advantages of no radiation, good soft tissue contrast, and arbitrary plane imaging make it a very popular clinical diagnostic tool. MRI compatible devices for human intervention / implantation are generally made of metal. Since metals are easily magnetized in a magnetic field and will generate a local magnetic field, the MRI compatible device and its neighborhood will show negative contrast in the image. Contrast is indistinguishable from tissue voids and areas of low signal-to-noise ratio, preventing precise localization and evaluation with MR-compatible devices. [0003] In recent years, in or...
