[0034] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] Figure 1a 1 is a flowchart of a magnetic resonance imaging method provided by the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case of performing magnetic resonance scanning. The method can be executed by a magnetic resonance imaging device, and the magnetic resonance imaging device can be implemented in software and / or hardware. For example, the magnetic resonance imaging device can be configured in a computer device. Figure 1a As shown, the method includes:

[0037] S110. When performing magnetic resonance scanning on a second sub-region of the scan object, first local magnetic resonance scanning data of at least one currently scanned sub-region is acquired.

[0038] The current workflow of magnetic resonance scanning is to reconstruct the original data after it is acquired and then output it to the interface for the operator to view. If the operator is negligent and the scanning parameters are inappropriate, the field of view is incorrect, etc., resulting in the image being unavailable and requiring re-acquisition, etc., it is necessary to wait for the complete acquisition time and reconstruction time before discovering the error under the current workflow. In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present invention improves the workflow of magnetic resonance scanning imaging, and before the original data is fully acquired, it uses part of the acquired data to reconstruct and display it on the operation interface in a timely manner, so as to help the operator to discover possible problems in a timely manner.

[0039] In general, in the embodiment of the present invention, the magnetic resonance data to be collected is decomposed into several data blocks and collected in sequence, and each part is reconstructed and displayed separately to shorten the process from the start of collection to the display. During the collection process, the partially collected data is reconstructed after the completion operation, so that the image can be reconstructed and displayed before the data collection is completed, so that the operator can find problems from the image in time. After the collected data is updated, it is reconstructed based on more data obtained and then displayed on the interface, so that as the collected data increases, the displayed image will become clearer and clearer.

[0040] In this embodiment, when performing magnetic resonance scanning on the scanned object, the scan area is divided into at least two sub-areas, and the sub-areas are scanned in sequence according to a set order. The number of sub-areas into which the scan area is divided can be set according to actual needs. Optionally, the number of sub-areas is determined according to at least one factor of image refresh rate, image reconstruction resource consumption, and image quality. Exemplarily, when the image refresh rate requirement is high and the image reconstruction resource consumption is low, a larger number can be set as the number of sub-areas. When the image reconstruction resource consumption is high, a smaller number can be set as the number of sub-areas.

[0041] In another determination method, the size of the sub-region is determined according to the acquisition time and image reconstruction time of the sub-region. Optionally, the acquisition time and image reconstruction time of the sub-region can be calculated according to the size of the sub-region. In this embodiment, image reconstruction is performed after acquisition is completed, and data acquisition of the next sub-region is performed during the image reconstruction process. Therefore, the optimal number and size of sub-regions make acquisition and reconstruction continuous in time without idle time. Figure 1b is a timing diagram of a magnetic resonance imaging method provided by the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1b As shown, during the data collection process of the sub-region, the image reconstruction operation is performed, and the data collection and image reconstruction are continuous in time, which speeds up the display speed.

[0042] The scanning order of the sub-regions is not limited in the present embodiment, and the scanning order of the sub-regions can be set according to actual needs. Preferably, the scanning order of the sub-regions of the scanned object is determined according to the data distribution position of the scanning data of the sub-regions in the K space. Specifically, the scanning order of the sub-regions can be set according to the position of the scanning data of the sub-regions in the K space. The sub-region corresponding to the center data of the K space can be scanned first, then the sub-region corresponding to the data around the center of the K space can be scanned, and finally the sub-region corresponding to the edge data of the K space can be scanned. Prioritizing the scanning of the sub-region corresponding to the center data of the K space can improve the image quality of the first image. Based on this, the sub-regions include a first sub-region and a second sub-region scanned sequentially, and the first sub-region includes the center data of the K space. Optionally, the first sub-region can be the center data of the K space, or it can include the center data and part of the edge data of the K space. When the first sub-region is the center data of the K space, the quality of the generated first image is higher.

[0043] The second sub-region may be any sub-region in the magnetic resonance scanning process. That is, when any sub-region of the scanned object is scanned, magnetic resonance scanning data of the scanned sub-region may be obtained as the first local magnetic resonance scanning data.

[0044] Exemplarily, assuming that the scanning area is divided into four sub-areas: sub-area 1, sub-area 2, sub-area 3 and sub-area 4, the sub-area currently being scanned (i.e., the second sub-area) is sub-area 3, and the scanned sub-areas are sub-area 1 and sub-area 2, then the magnetic resonance scanning data of sub-area 1 and / or sub-area 2 can be acquired as the first local magnetic resonance scanning data.

[0045] Optionally, the magnetic resonance scanning data of part of the scanned sub-areas may be obtained as the first local magnetic resonance scanning data, or the magnetic resonance scanning data of all the scanned sub-areas may be obtained as the first local magnetic resonance image data. The magnetic resonance scanning data of the scanned sub-areas may be data obtained by repeating the sequence several times (within several repetition times TR), or data obtained by intercepting and sampling.

[0046] S120 . Generate a global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the first local magnetic resonance scanning data.

[0047] In this embodiment, after acquiring the first local magnetic resonance scan data, image reconstruction is performed based on the first local magnetic resonance scan data to obtain a magnetic resonance reconstructed image. It can be understood that the first local magnetic resonance scan data is part of the data collected during the data collection process required to complete a normal image reconstruction, that is, part of the magnetic resonance scan data of the scanning area. Therefore, when generating a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image based on the first local magnetic resonance scan data, it is necessary to complete and reconstruct the magnetic resonance scan data to obtain a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image. Among them, the global magnetic resonance reconstructed image can be a magnetic resonance reconstructed image of a pre-set image reconstruction area.

[0048] Optionally, generating a global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the first local magnetic resonance scan data includes: completing the first local magnetic resonance scan data to obtain completed global magnetic resonance scan data, reconstructing the global magnetic resonance scan data to obtain a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image; or reconstructing the first local magnetic resonance scan data to obtain a local magnetic resonance reconstructed image, completing the local magnetic resonance reconstructed image to obtain a completed global magnetic resonance reconstructed image. In other words, the first local magnetic resonance scan data may be completed after image reconstruction to obtain a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image, or an image may be reconstructed according to the first local magnetic resonance scan data and then completed to obtain a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image. Global magnetic resonance scan data may be understood as scan data obtained by completing a magnetic resonance scan task.

[0049] From the perspective of K-space, global MRI scan data refers to the complete K-space data required for a normal image reconstruction in the prior art, and local MRI scan data refers to certain fragments of K-space data acquired before the acquisition is complete. Based on this, it can be understood that global MRI scan data corresponds to data obtained after a MRI scan sequence is scanned, and local MRI scan data corresponds to data acquired in a scan portion of a MRI scan sequence.

[0050] When the magnetic resonance scan data is first completed and then the magnetic resonance image is reconstructed. There are many methods for data completion. In one embodiment, the first local magnetic resonance scan data is completed to obtain the completed global magnetic resonance scan data, including: determining the regional K space data corresponding to each first local magnetic resonance scan data, setting the K space data outside the regional K space data in the global K space data to a set value, and obtaining the completed global K space data as the global magnetic resonance scan data; or, determining the regional K space data corresponding to each first local magnetic resonance scan data, interpolating based on the regional K space data, and obtaining the completed global K space data as the global magnetic resonance scan data; or, determining the regional K space data corresponding to each first local magnetic resonance scan data, and obtaining the completed global K space data as the global magnetic resonance scan data according to the regional K space data and the pre-trained data completion model. In general, when the first local magnetic resonance scan data is K space data, the first local magnetic resonance scan data is completed by at least one of K space filling set values, interpolation methods, and artificial intelligence reasoning to obtain global K space data as global magnetic resonance scan data. Optionally, the set value is 0, that is, the K space data outside the regional K space data is set to 0. The interpolation method can refer to the interpolation method in the prior art, which will not be repeated here. The artificial intelligence reasoning method can be: pre-training the data completion model, and completing the K space data based on the trained data completion model.

[0051] When a magnetic resonance image is reconstructed first and then the magnetic resonance image is completed. The method can be performed by first reconstructing the K-space data and then interpolating and completing it. The first local magnetic resonance reconstructed image is completed to obtain a completed global magnetic resonance reconstructed image, including: interpolating the pixel values ​​of adjacent pixels according to the pixel values ​​of each pixel in the first local magnetic resonance image to obtain a completed global magnetic resonance reconstructed image. Optionally, the first local magnetic resonance image can be completed by interpolation to obtain a global magnetic resonance reconstructed image.

[0052] S130, displaying the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image.

[0053] After the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image is generated, the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image is displayed so that the operator can analyze whether the scanning parameters need to be modified through the displayed magnetic resonance image.

[0054] S140: After scanning the second sub-region, generate a new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the second local magnetic resonance scanning data and the first local magnetic resonance scanning data.

[0055] S150: Displaying the new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image.

[0056] After the scanning of the second sub-region is completed, the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image is regenerated and the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image generated based on the first local magnetic resonance scanning data in the above embodiment is updated based on the regenerated global magnetic resonance reconstruction image.

[0057] Specifically, after the second sub-region is scanned, the magnetic resonance scanning data of the second sub-region is obtained as the second local magnetic resonance scanning data, the second local magnetic resonance scanning data and the first local magnetic resonance scanning data are merged, and the magnetic resonance image is reconstructed based on the merged data to obtain a new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image, and the new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image is displayed. A solution for adjusting the displayed magnetic resonance image during the scanning process is implemented.

[0058] The process of reconstructing the magnetic resonance image based on the merged data can refer to the process of generating a global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the first local magnetic resonance scanning data in the above embodiment. That is, when the magnetic resonance scanning task is not completed, the magnetic resonance image reconstruction based on the merged data still needs to be completed to generate a global magnetic resonance reconstruction image.

[0059] It should be noted that the first local magnetic resonance scanning data and the second local magnetic resonance scanning data are data obtained by repeated scanning of at least two sequences, or the first local magnetic resonance scanning data and the second local magnetic resonance scanning data are data obtained by intercepting and sampling the original scanning data. In other words, the sub-region corresponding to the first local magnetic resonance scanning data and the sub-region corresponding to the second local magnetic resonance scanning data may be the same sub-region or different sub-regions, which is specifically determined according to imaging requirements and sequence settings, and is not limited here.

[0060] The magnetic resonance imaging method provided by the embodiment of the present invention acquires the first local magnetic resonance scanning data of at least one scanned sub-region when performing magnetic resonance scanning on the second sub-region of the scanned object; generates a global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the first local magnetic resonance scanning data; displays the global magnetic resonance reconstruction image; generates a new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the second local magnetic resonance scanning data and the first local magnetic resonance scanning data after scanning the second sub-region; and displays the new global magnetic resonance reconstruction image. By updating the displayed magnetic resonance reconstruction image based on the magnetic resonance scanning data of the scanned sub-region when scanning the current sub-region, image display during the scanning process is achieved, so that the user can promptly discover possible problems through the displayed images, thereby improving inspection efficiency.
