For a R-matrix.With phase images and the corresponding k-space data of reverse phase image, storage is two-dimensional complex number respectively on console
Matrix (Dim1 × Dim2) or three-dimensional complex matrix (Dim1 × Dim2 × Dim3).For three-dimensional version, console data processing mould
Block first along selecting layer direction to carry out one-dimensional discrete Fourier transform, obtains the k-space complex matrix of each imaging level.For every
A imaging level, reverse phase echoWith same phase echoTheoretical modeling it is as follows:
T refers to current phase code circulation step in above formula, and N arrives the round numbers of 2L range, φ 10It (r) is proton magnetization vector
Initial phase, φ (r) is the phase error mainly generated by Magnetic field inhomogeneity effect,Item is excellent for carrying out to echo amplitude
Change compensation, Mw(r) and Mf(r) the proton magnetization vector for respectively indicating water and fat in imaging region, in three-dimensional space encoding condition
Under can be described as:
Field inhomogeneities effect in formula (1) and (2) during TE is not ignored, this is because TE is needing many imagings
Actually it can not usually reach several milliseconds even ten milliseconds or more close to zero in system, and gtadient echo can neither reunion
Displacement study effect can not meet again an inhomogeneous broadening effect.Under the conditions of the TE=Δ Δ f/2 of τ=1/, formula (1) and (2) are reduced to
In above formula,
Here we defineIt is measured based on frontA can be calculated in value.
In addition, can determine that the first two echo and the relationship of other echoes are as follows from formula (5) to (8):
As it can be seen thatWithBetween amplitude and phase relationship be quite analogous toWithBetween amplitude and phase
Relationship, therefore similar data processing side can be used with reverse phase echo with phase to each group in the echo of each radio-frequency drive
Formula.
Data processing module starting in the case where gradient system lacks vortex field and Maxwell field inhibits function is primary
Phase correction module, first to reverse phase echoWith same phase echoIt is preliminary to carry out vortex field and Maxwell's field phase school
Just, implementation is as described below:
A. it selectsKy=0 line is after the one-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform of frequency coding direction and calculates amplitude and is greater than
The phase of the 10% complex data point of maximum value.
B. linear fit is carried out to gained phase value in step A, obtains slope Δ φ respectively0With intercept θ0。
C. it selectsKy=0 line calculates amplitude after the one-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform of frequency coding direction and is greater than most
The phase for the 10% complex data point being worth greatly.
D. linear fit is carried out to gained phase value in step C automatically, obtains slope Δ φ respectively1With intercept θ1。
E. to allAlong frequency coding direction carry out one-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform after multiplied byAgain
One-dimensional discrete Fourier transform is carried out, is updated allWherein n is numbered at frequency coding direction number strong point.
F. to allAlong frequency coding direction carry out one-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform after multiplied byAgain
It carries out one-dimensional discrete Fourier transform and carries out time reversal and calculate conjugate complex number, update all
Then, from reverse phase (or same phase) echo(or) in choose two of them in frequency encoding gradient polarity
K-space center line (the k acquired respectively in the negative situation that is positivey=0) one-dimensional discrete is carried out along frequency coding direction to become against Fourier
Array P and P` are obtained after changing, and are calculatedHereIndicate Pi,jConjugate complex number, i and j are respectively indicated
Number of the data point along frequency coding and phase-encoding direction.By reverse phase (or same phase) echo(or) filling k it is empty
Between array along frequency coding direction carry out one-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform and multiplied byIt is carried out again along phase-encoding direction
One-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform, the reverse phase image S after obtaining phasing0(or with phase images S1), it is finally (or anti-to same phase
Phase) echo(or) the k-space array of filling carries out the same phase images that are updated of two-dimensional discrete inverse Fourier transform
S1(or reverse phase image S0)。
The probability of happening of above-mentioned phasing wound the purpose is to reduce phase is to guarantee that phase unwrapping algorithm is sufficiently effective
And operation time is reduced, because the common phase unwrapping algorithm in the field MRI (such as cut by polynomial fitting method, region growth method and branch
Method etc.) efficiency is relatively low and is insufficient effective when noise and insufficient sampled point.Then, data processing module starts
Phase unwrapping and correction module, theoretical basis and implementation are as described below:
Since there are amplitude fading occurs during an additional Δ τ for each reverse phase echo previous compared with phase echo
A and phase error phi, reverse phase figure S0With same phasor S1It can be described as:
Here SwAnd SfWater and fat components in image pixel are respectively indicated, they and MwAnd MfIt is directly proportional,Including reverse phase
The initial phase of figure and the phase that field inhomogeneities, vortex field and Maxwell field generate during TE and (2N-2) Δ τ
Error,Mainly by first reverse phase echo (i.e. ky=0 line) phase error during TE determines.
By the phase in formula (11)By algorithm stream shown in figure five
The quick accurate phase unwrapping of Cheng Jinhang, then to reverse phase image S0It eliminatesIt is as follows:
When with κ=Re (S`0)/|S`0| determine (Sw-Sf) symbol when, formula (13) can also be written as
S`0=κ | S0|=Sw-Sf (14)
And to same phase images S1It is as follows to eliminate phase:
S`1=| S1|=(Sw+Sf)·A (15)
Then, water rouge separation module is based on formula (14) and formula (15) calculates and generates water as SwWith fat as SfIt is as follows:
In this way, four sub-pictures of our available elimination Magnetic field inhomogeneity effects, i.e., with phasor S`0, reverse phase figure S`1, water
As SwWith fat as Sf。
The spatial distribution of A is generally negligible in formula (16) and (17), but in high field intensity equipment local magnetic susceptibility effect compared with
In the case where big, the spatial distribution of A can not be ignored, and otherwise may cause the separation of water rouge not exclusively, for this purpose, pulse train module
Sequence shown in offer figure eight and figure nine is spare, and the start-up portion of the sequence designs the Dixon echo of three phases for measuring A
Distribution, wherein third echo is only filled with the k-space line of k-space central area Dim2/N, and data processing module is still pressed aforementioned
Mode carries out phasing and discrete inverse Fourier transform, as a result as follows:
Meanwhile after aforementioned phasingWithMiddle Dim2/L k-space line in extraction k-space central area,
It is obtained after discrete inverse Fourier transform:
It is as follows that low resolution A distribution map is obtained from formula (18) and formula (19):
Then it is Dim1 × Dim2 matrix by A linear interpolation, is achieved with water rouge based on formula (16) and formula (17) in this way and fills
Divide isolated image.It is filled with twice since the corresponding k-space center of reverse phase figure is practical, therefore signal noise ratio (snr) of image obtains further
It improves.
Above-mentioned chemical shift imaging technology is greatly improved the scan efficiency of chemical shift imaging and overcomes MRI machine
Hardware deficiency adverse effect.
