  • Patent number: 11353534
    Abstract: A method for acquiring a magnetic resonance data set of an object under examination by a magnetic resonance system using a scan sequence is provided. The scan sequence includes a succession of sequence blocks, and in each sequence block, there is at least one sub-block including an excitation section and/or a detection section. An excitation section includes at least one excitation pulse, and in a detection section, an echo signal or an echo train is acquired as a scan signal. At least one item of motion information is provided for each sub-block. The motion information contains information about a movement of the object under examination within a duration of the sub-block. Some of the sub-blocks are automatically repeated. At least the sub-blocks having motion information that exceeds a threshold value are repeated. The threshold value defines a motion amplitude.

  • Publication number: 20210325501
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for correcting a movement of an object occurring during an MR image acquisition. The method includes: determining a motion model describing possible movements of the object based on a defined number of degrees of freedom; detecting a motion of a marker provided on the object with a motion sensor; determining a description of the motion model in a common coordinate system; determining the motion of the marker in the common coordinate system; determining a first motion of the object in the common coordinate system using the description of the motion model, the first motion being the motion that best matches the determined motion of the marker in the common coordinate system using the defined number of degrees of freedom; and correcting the movement of the object based on the determined first motion in order to determine at least one motion corrected MR image.
