  • Field-mapping and artifact correction in multispectral imaging
    Patent number: 10725133
    Abstract: A method for generating a magnetic resonance image of an object in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, wherein the object contains at least one metallic implant is provided. The MRI system provides multiple excitations of at least part of the object. The MRI system reads out image signals from the object. The MRI system saves the readout image signals as image data. A field-map is generated from the image data using a goodness-of-fit process which uses a goodness-of-fit metric, matched-filter, and/or similar fitting techniques to fit expected signals from each excitation to the image data.
