摘要： A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system can include a processor and a memory. The processor can receive an acquired magnetic resonance (MR) dataset having a first signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The processor can extract, from the acquired MR dataset, a first set of values corresponding to a first variable having a second SNR and a second set of values corresponding to a second variable. The processor can apply a constraint function that includes a function of the first variable and the second variable. The processor can minimize a cost function according to the constraint function to generate a cost function solution. The processor can input the first variable and the second variable into the cost function solution to generate a modified first variable having a third SNR, the third SNR being greater than the second SNR.

摘要： A system and method of generating Radio Frequency (RF) pulses RF(t) in a Multi-band (MB) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system is presented. The method includes determining a dirac comb function, the period of the comb function determining the frequency separation of the excitation bands. The method further includes determining a single band frequency selective pulse, defining the envelope of a pulse of RF(t), and the shape of individual excitation frequency bands in the frequency domain. The method further includes determining the shape of RF(t) during each period, and is used to modulate uniformity and/or number of individual excitation bands in the frequency domain. RF(t) pulses are generated in the MRI system simultaneously with an MRI gradient so as to simultaneously excite multiple slices within a subject, wherein the RF(t) pulse create a spin response.

摘要： Systems and methods for improving magnetic resonance imaging relate to reconstructing multi-slice images based on sharing the strong structural similarities between adjacent image slices. In addition, a joint denoising method exploits these structural similarities. In part the reconstruction is based on use of a residual neural networks and denoising is achieved with a deep learning based strategy. The system and method have proved useful in both simulation and in vivo brain experiments, demonstrating significant noise reduction in all images and revealing more microstructural details in quantitative diffusion maps.

摘要： The present invention relates to a method (10) for monitoring the performance of a predetermined test task executed by a subject during an fMRI examination. The method comprises acquiring (11) a timeseries of fMRI images and providing (12) a sensory stimulus to the subject during the acquisition in accordance with the predetermined test task. The method comprises determining (13), after the sensory stimulus, an activity measure indicative of brain activity in at least one predetermined region of interest, and generating (14) at least one signal when the activity measure is indicative of a poor performance of and/or compliance to the predetermined test task. The signal is generated during the acquisition of the time series and/or before removing the subject from the magnetic resonance imaging system. Further aspects of the invention relate to computer program products, computer systems and MRI systems.

摘要： A method for creating multiple sequences of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images of an object is described, wherein each of said sequences of MR images represents the same series of contiguous cross-sectional slices covering a volume of the object. The method comprises (a) providing multiple sequences of sets of image raw data being collected with the use of at least one radiofrequency receiver coil of a magnetic resonance imaging device, wherein each set of image raw data includes data samples being generated with a combined diffusion-weighted spin-echo and single-shot stimulated-echo sequence with diffusion-encoding gradients, (b) subjecting a sequence of sets of image raw data generated with diffusion-encoding gradients of zero strength or lower strength to a regularized nonlinear inverse reconstruction process to provide a sequence of coil sensitivities and MR images with no or lower diffusion weighting, and (c) subjecting all se- quences of sets of image raw data with diffusion-encoding gradients of zero or lower strength as well as of higher strength to a regularized linear inverse reconstruction process, to provide a sequence of MR images with no or lower diffusion weighting and a sequence of MR images with higher strength, each of the MR images representing one of the cross-sectional slices and being created by using the sensitivity of the at least one receiver coil determined in step (b) for the same cross-sectional slice and in dependency on a difference between a current image content estimation and an image content estimation of a neighboring cross-sectional slice. Furthermore, an MRI device for creating a sequence of diffusion-weighted MR images of an object is described.

摘要： Scan time in diffusion-relaxation magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI") is reduced by implementing time-division multiplexing ("TDM"). In general, time-shifted radio frequency ("RF") pulses are used to excite two or more imaging volumes. These RF pulses are applied to induce separate echoes for each slice. Diffusion MRI data can thus be acquired with different echo times, or alternatively with the same echo time, in significantly reduced overall scan time. Multidimensional correlations between diffusion and relaxation parameters can be estimated from the resulting data.
