Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If multiple interdependent parameters are edited manually in MRI scanning, then parameter customization is achieved, but computational complexity increases and unintended changes occur
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-calculates and stores the relationships between interdependent MRI parameters in a database before actual scanning operations. When a user edits one parameter, the system retrieves pre-computed dependency information to automatically adjust related parameters, avoiding real-time complex computations and reducing both computational burden and unintended changes
2Manufacturing precision
If additional computations are performed to handle parameter interdependency, then parameter accuracy is improved, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
Parameter dependency relationships and adjustment rules are pre-computed and stored in advance. During actual scanning, the system simply retrieves and applies these pre-established relationships, ensuring parameter accuracy while minimizing processing time
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a computational model (copy) of the parameter dependency relationships that mirrors the actual MRI scanning requirements. This model allows rapid simulation and determination of parameter adjustments without performing full computational analysis during scanning operations

AI summary
A method of outputting information about parameters for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) includes receiving editing information that is used to change a value of a first parameter, outputting information representing a first range of the first parameter, based on the received editing information, the first range enabling a value of a second parameter that is associated with the first parameter to be changed together with the value of the first parameter, and outputting a value to which the second parameter is changeable, according to a value to which the first parameter is changeable, based on the received editing information.
