Publication number: 20120206140Abstract: A method for generating a magnetic resonance (MR) image includes acquiring MR data from each of a plurality of RF coils and applying a prospective motion correction method to the MR data for each RF coil including determining a set of motion measurements that include a scan plane orientation associated with each data point in the MR data. The MR data for each RF coil is divided into a plurality of scan plane orientation groups based on motion changes. A set of unaliasing coefficients is generated for each scan plan orientation group and applied to the MR data to synthesize data for each RF coil. The acquired MR data and synthesized data for each RF coil is combined to generate a scan plane orientation data set. Each scan plane orientation data set is combined to generate a complete k-space data set.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2012Publication date: August 16, 2012Applicant: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANYInventors: Suchandrima Banerjee, Ajit Shankaranarayanan, Philip Beatty, Eric Han

Publication number: 20070160079Abstract: A computer system that implements a quality of service policy. Information defining the quality of service policy is stored in a central location, such as a server within an enterprise. Policy management software on clients in the network download quality of service policy information from the central location to the clients. Within a client, a portion of the policy information is selected based on its applicability to a particular connection. The selected information is cached with an association to the connection so that, as datagrams are generated for transmission over the network, relevant policy information is quickly accessed for use in controlling transmission characteristics of datagrams sent using that connection. The policy information is applied on a datagram-by-datagram basis, allowing policy information to be selectively applied based on network type. Policy information may be selectively applied to those datagrams transmitted over a managed network.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2006Publication date: July 12, 2007Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Eric Han, Shuangtong Feng, Yinghua Yao
