Abstract

The invention relates to an imaging type non-contact gating signal obtaining method for a magnetic resonance system, and belongs to the field of physiological signal detection.The method comprises the steps that pulse and respiration signals of a magnetic resonance detection patient are collected through a camera, and face information of the patient is obtained through a reflector in a magnetic resonance instrument cavity; a living body skin detection technology is utilized to efficiently select a region of interest of the face of a patient, and an IPPG technology is combined to process a video image to obtain a curve of image gray along a time sequence; a motion detection algorithm is used for tracking micro motion of the chest, and stable and accurate breathing signals are extracted by combining frequency selection. By analyzing and quantifying pulse wave signals and delay of respiration signals and electrocardiosignals, the purpose of replacing electrocardiosignal R-peak gating triggering with pulse wave and respiration signal feature triggering is achieved. The invention provides an imaging type non-contact gating technology to solve the problems that traditional ECG and other contact gating technologies are easily affected by a strong static magnetic field, an alternating gradient magnetic field and a radio-frequency pulse electromagnetic field in a magnetic resonance imaging system, and motion artifacts can be generated on motion of fluid such as human blood, breathing and cardiac contraction. Therefore, the quality of a magnetic resonance imaging image is improved.
