Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a scanning protocol parameter determination method and a magnetic resonance system, and the method comprises the steps: setting scanning protocol parameters which are used for exciting one or more slice layers of a target object, and comprise a layer selection gradient, a phase coding gradient and a frequency coding gradient; when it is detected that the scanning protocol parameters enable a target object to have a to-be-scanned slice layer with PNS ultralimit in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, updating the scanning protocol parameters, the updating method of the scanning protocol parameters comprising the following steps: determining an application direction of one or more of a layer selection gradient, a phase coding gradient and a frequency coding gradient based on a golden proportion algorithm; and performing magnetic resonance imaging on the target object according to the updated scanning protocol parameters. The problem that time and labor are wasted when scanning protocol parameters are modified in a magnetic resonance scanning method in the prior art is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of medical equipment control, in particular to a scanning protocol parameter determination method and a magnetic resonance system. Background technique [0002] Under normal circumstances, MRI is safe for the subjects. However, due to the increasing magnetic field strength and the continuous emergence of new technologies, the biological effects and safety issues of MRI cannot be ignored, especially when it comes to system hardware (such as high Magnetic field 5T, 7T, etc.). [0003] A higher gradient strength and switching rate will cause a large change in the magnetic flux density in the scanning cavity in a short period of time, and the induced electric field will excite the peripheral nerves and generate peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS for short). If the electric field reaches a certain level, it will make people feel uncomfortable or have obvious pain, and may even be life-threatening, so ...
