  • Patent number: 10898089
    Abstract: Example apparatus and methods improve magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) by performing MRF with optimized spatial encoding, parallel imaging, and utilization of field inhomogeneities. Multi-echo radial trajectories and spiral trajectories may acquire data according to sampling schemes based on models of charge distribution on a sphere. Non-uniform sampling schemes may account for differences in detector coil performance. Field inhomogeneities provide spatial information that enhances the spatial separation of an MRF signal and facilitates unaliasing pixels. The field inhomogeneity may be manipulated. An MRF pulse sequence may include frequency selective RF pulses that are determined by the field inhomogeneities. Inhomogeneities combined with selective RF pulses result in higher acquisition efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10877120
    Abstract: A method for magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF), including accessing MRF data and a dictionary of signal evolutions. A plurality of regions-of-interest (ROIs) are selected in the MRF data. A first series of tissue parameter estimates is generated from the MRF data in the ROIs using the dictionary and a multicomponent Bayesian framework. From the first series of tissue parameter estimates, probability distributions are computed for different tissue types. The method further includes creating a reduced dictionary by removing entries from the dictionary having tissue parameter values not contained within the computed probability distributions. A second series of tissue parameter estimates is generated from the MRF data using the reduced dictionary and a multicomponent Bayesian framework. The method also includes generating a tissue probability map for each different tissue type from the second series of tissue parameter estimates.

  • Patent number: 10761171
    Abstract: A system and method for generating quantitative images of a subject using a nuclear magnetic resonance system. The method includes performing a navigator module to acquire navigator data, and performing an acquisition module during free breathing of the subject to acquire NMR data from the subject that contains one or more resonant species that simultaneously produce individual NMR signals in response to the acquisition module. The above steps are repeated to acquire data from a plurality of partitions across the volume. The navigator data is analyzed to determine if the NMR data meets a predetermined condition and if not, the above steps are repeated for at least an affected partition corresponding to NMR data that did not meet the predetermined condition. The NMR data is compared to a dictionary of signal evolutions to determine quantitative values for two or more parameters of the resonant species in the volume.
