  • Patent number: 9411032
    Abstract: A sensitivity distribution generating apparatus configured to generate sensitivity distribution data of a coil for receiving magnetic resonance signals from an imaging region including a first substance and a second substance different in resonant frequency is provided. The sensitivity distribution generating apparatus includes a reference image data generating unit configured to generate reference image data in which a region of the first substance is suppressed and a region of the second substance is emphasized, based on data obtained by executing a separation sequence for separating the first substance and the second substance from each other, and an estimating unit configured to estimate a sensitivity of the coil in the region of the first substance, based on a signal value of the region of the second substance in the reference image data.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160113592
    Abstract: A system and method for acquisition setup and anatomy landmarking for MRI systems are described. A gesture sensing input device generates user motion data. A gesture application identifies a gesture based on the user motion data. A display device displays patient setup information in response to the gesture. An acquisition application generates a setup for an MRI system for a patient based on the gesture and the user motion data.
