Definitions
- the present invention relates to an inspection apparatus (MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging) using nuclear magnetic resonance, and more particularly, to a magnetic resonance imaging technique using coil sensitivity.
- MRI Magnetic Resonance Imaging
- a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus is a medical diagnostic imaging apparatus that causes nuclear magnetic resonance to occur in a hydrogen nucleus in an arbitrary cross section that crosses an examination target, and obtains a tomographic image in the cross section from the generated nuclear magnetic resonance signal. .
- Non-Patent Document 1 In contrast to the normal imaging method, which uses only a gradient magnetic field to add position information in the phase encoding direction to an image, the imaging method of Non-Patent Document 1 uses the sensitivity distribution of the receiving coil in combination. The information is encoded into the image.
- this encoding method is referred to as a coil sensitivity combined encoding, and encoding using only a normal gradient magnetic field that does not use sensitivity distribution is referred to as gradient magnetic field encoding.
- the coil sensitivity combined encoding described above can be performed without phase encoding.
- the number of phase encodes can be performed without phase encoding.
- phase encoding is called coil sensitivity encoding.
- the coil sensitivity encoding can be used not only in the phase encoding direction but also in the frequency encoding direction (reading direction) (see, for example, Patent Document 1). That is, by measuring a nuclear magnetic resonance signal using a coil having a frequency encoding number or more, it is not necessary to perform frequency encoding, and therefore it is not necessary to apply a gradient magnetic field for reading. When the gradient magnetic field for reading is not applied, there is an advantage that no noise is generated by switching the gradient magnetic field.
