  • System for producing high-resolution magnetic resonance images with a short measurement time
    Patent number: 5646529
    Abstract: A system produces high-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) images from the data measured by the magnetic resonance machine. The system extrapolates, using a method "ad hoc", a function of the measured data. This makes it possible to reduce the number of data measured, giving consequent reduction in the overall measurement time. Further, a special contrast measurement is used, which makes it possible to choose the image automatically from a group of possible candidates, consistent with the measured data.
