  • Method for uniform reconstruction of multi-channel surface-coil magnetic resonance data without use of a reference scan
    Patent number: 11467238
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating images with a magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) system, in which the images have been corrected for receive coil nonuniformities are described. Improved data acquisition schemes for fat saturation are also described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 11, 2022

  • MRI COMPATIBLE KNEE POSITIONING DEVICE
    Publication number: 20110030698
    Abstract: A device for positioning a subject's knee during an MRI scan. The device includes foot, knee, and thigh positioning apparatuses. Each of the positioning apparatuses can be translated and/or rotated to allow correct and consistent position of the subject's knee within the MRI magnetic bore. The device includes a user control to facilitate repeat measurements of knee characteristics with reduced intra- and inter-technologist variability.
