摘要： In a method and device for monitoring the physiologically effective radio-frequency exposure in at least one specific volume region of an examination subject in a magnetic resonance data acquisition scan in a magnetic resonance system, amplitude values are acquired that respectively represent, at specific acquisition points in time, a signal amplitude of the radio-frequency signals emitted or to be emitted via the radio-frequency signal channels. Also, phase values are acquired that represent the phases of the appertaining radio-frequency signals at these points in time. Local exposure values are then determined on the basis of the amplitude values and phase values, respectively representing a physiological exposure that the radio-frequency pulses cause at the examination subject at a specific location at a specific time. Based on this, exposure control values are determined that are compared with predetermined exposure limit values. When an exposure limit values is reached or exceeded, a control signal is output.

摘要： In a method and device for monitoring the physiologically effective radio-frequency exposure in at least one specific volume region of an examination subject in a magnetic resonance data acquisition scan in a magnetic resonance system, the magnetic resonance system having a radio-frequency antenna structure with a number of individually controllable radio-frequency signal channels for generation of radio-frequency field distributions in an examination volume including the examination subject, amplitude values are acquired that respectively represent, at specific acquisition points in time, a signal amplitude of the radio-frequency signals emitted or to be emitted via the radio-frequency signal channels in the course of the magnetic resonance measurement. Also, phase values are acquired that represent the phases of the appertaining radio-frequency signals at these points in time. Local exposure values are then determined on the basis of the amplitude values and phase values, these local exposure values respectively representing a physiological exposure that the radio-frequency pulses cause at the examination subject at a specific location at a specific time. Based on this, exposure control values are determined that are compared with predetermined exposure limit values. When an exposure limit values is reached or exceeded, a control signal is output.

摘要： In a method for adjustment of a B1 field in a magnetic resonance apparatus, the position of the measurement subject relative to a coordinate system is determined from a plurality of measurement subjects with a morphological magnetic resonance measurement. Three-dimensionally associable measurement subject data are determined from the measurement subject. Respective tissue types of the measurement subject are determined using the three-dimensional measurement subject data and a segmentation of the measurement subject into regions is effected using the tissue types. Known dielectric properties are respectively associated with the tissue types. The segmentation and the association for all positions of the measurement subject are recorded in respective entries of a database, such that the database contains all entries of the measurement subjects. A radio-frequency simulation for an transmission coils is implemented with the entries of the database, with which electrical field distributions and/or B1 field distributions related to spatial elements are determined as a simulation result and are entered as results into the database. For further magnetic resonance examinations, the entries of the database are used for determination of an optimized current distribution for elements of a transmission coil with which the B1 field is ultimately adjusted.

摘要： In a method for controlling a magnetic resonance system having a radio-frequency antenna structure and a number of individually controllable transmission channels, respective parallel radio-frequency signals are emitted via the transmission channels for generation of a desired radio-frequency field distribution in at least one specific volume region within an examination volume of the magnetic resonance system. A digital signal is generated for each of the transmission channels and is modulated on a carrier frequency. The radio-frequency signal so generated is transmitted via a radio-frequency signal path to the radio-frequency antenna structure and is amplified therein in a radio-frequency power amplifier. The digital signal is manipulated in a characteristic curve correction device on the basis of a correction characteristic curve predetermined for the respective radio-frequency signal path such that a distortion of the radio-frequency signal caused in the appertaining radio-frequency signal path is at least partially compensated. Respective individual correction characteristic curves for a specific measurement are predetermined for the various transmission channels dependent on a field distribution parameter that defines the desired radio-frequency field distribution. A magnetic resonance system implements such a method.

摘要： A method for operating a transmission device of a magnetic resonance device is provided. In order to actuate coil elements of a radiofrequency coil with different phases, phase differences in a reference plane are taken into consideration. In a first calibration measurement to be performed once for each transmission path, a first phase of a transmitted radiofrequency signal is measured by an internal measuring device installed permanently in the transmission device spaced apart from the reference plane. A second phase of the transmitted radiofrequency signal is measured by a second, external measuring device to be connected to the reference plane for the first calibration measurement. At least one phase of the first phase and the second phase is taken into consideration in the phase-accurate actuating of the coil elements and/or for correcting further measurements with the internal measuring device.

摘要： The invention relates to a combined magnetic resonance imaging and targeting device for magnetic particles having a magnetic coil array. The magnetic coil array comprises a plurality of coils, each of which is connected to a power supply. The power supplies are connected to a controller which is embodied for two operating modes. In a first operating mode the power supplies are controlled in such a way that a magnetic field extreme value is generated at at least one location in a target region. In a second operating mode the power supplies are controlled in such a way that magnetic fields having a strictly monotonously rising or falling magnetic field profile are generated in an imaging region.
