  • Publication number: 20210223344
    Abstract: In a method for generating at least one MR image of an object in an MR system comprising a plurality of signal receiving coils, a sequence of RF pulses are applied in order to generate a plurality of MR signal echoes, the MR signal-echoes are detected with the plurality of signal receiving coils in a 3-dimension-al k-space, and the at least one MR image is reconstructed using the non-homogeneous under sampled 3-dimensional k-space based on a compressed sensing technology. The 3-dimensional k-space may be undersampled with a plurality of spiral trajectories having different radii resulting in a non-homogeneous undersampled 3-dimensional k-space.

  • Publication number: 20200333410
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods, devices, and systems for developing gradient system characterization functions and imaging a patient using pre-emphasized magnetic field components in a magnetic resonance (MR) device, wherein the processes allow for a reduction in a number of artifacts when reconstructing the magnetic resonance image. The gradient system characterization function (e.g., a gradient system transfer function) may be developed by measuring a behavior of the MR device at a target temperature and developing at least one gradient system characterization function for a gradient coil of the MR device at the target temperature based on the measured behavior.
