  • Patent number: 11740308
    Abstract: A signal processing method including receiving an original reference radio frequency signal from a receiving antenna group; receiving the time series of the control signal associated with the transmission event of the radio frequency pulses; synchronizing the time series with the original reference radio frequency signal, and determining the echo train in the original reference radio frequency signal in a repetition time of the pulse sequence, wherein the echo train corresponds to the part of the time series associated with the transmission event of the radio frequency pulses in time sequence; setting the sampling points in the domains of the starting point and a first ending point of the echo train; and generating a fitting signal based on the sampling points to eliminate the radio frequency interference signal resulted from the transmission event of the radio frequency pulses.

  • Publication number: 20210052187
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for determining a respiration phase by extracting a distance characteristic value, a score characteristic value, and an area characteristic value from the respiration signal, wherein the distance characteristic value, the score characteristic value and the area characteristic value are used to indicate waveform variation between two adjacent waveforms in the respiration signal. The techniques include training a respiration signal model according to the distance characteristic value, the score characteristic value, and the area characteristic value to determine the respiration phase of the respiration signal using the respiration signal model.

  • Patent number: 10387357
    Abstract: In a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) configuration circuit, and a radio-frequency unit and a magnetic resonance system having a configuration circuit, the configuration circuit has at least two FPGA modules, each FPGA module being individually connected to a bus; at least two storage devices, each storage device storing a configuration file; one of the at least two FPGA modules being connected to the at least two storage devices separately, and an input end, connected separately to the at least two storage devices. A selection signal is provided for selecting one of the at least two storage devices. The FPGA module connected to the at least two storage devices reads a configuration file stored in a storage device selected on the basis of the selection signal, and sends, via the bus, the configuration file that has been read to the FPGA module other than the FPGA module connected to the at least two storage devices.

  • Publication number: 20150154764
    Abstract: In a medical imaging apparatus, system and a method for displaying medical images, an image display unit and an image reconstruction unit are virtual machines running on a single physical computer. The image reconstruction unit receives medical imaging data and reconstructing a medical image based on the medical imaging data. The image display unit displays the medical image. Multiple physical computers in a medical imaging apparatus are thereby concentrated in a single physical computer with the use of virtualization technology, thereby enabling costs to be reduced significantly and the system to be simplified, increasing the system maintenance efficiency.
