Description
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the field of medical equipment control, in particular to a scanning protocol parameter determining method and a magnetic resonance system.
Background
In general, magnetic resonance is safe for the subject, but due to the increasing magnetic field strength and the emerging new technologies, the biological effects and safety issues of MRI remain to be ignored, especially with respect to system hardware (e.g., high magnetic fields 5T, 7T, etc.).
The high gradient strength and switching rate can cause the magnetic flux density in the scanning cavity to change greatly in a short time, the generated induced electric field can excite peripheral nerves to generate peripheral nerve stimulation (Peripheral Nervous Stimulate, PNS for short), and if the induced electric field reaches a certain degree, people feel uncomfortable or obvious pain, and even life is possibly threatened, so that the magnetic field gradient is monitored. The relationship of PNS threshold to cumulative duration is described in IEC60601-2-332002 and 2010 standards by detecting the induced electric field (also dB/dt) in the subject caused by a varying gradient magnetic field. Before the magnetic resonance clinical scanning, an operator can modify scanning protocol parameters according to actual conditions, and if the parameters are improperly modified, the magnetic field gradient climbing rate in a scanning cavity is out of limit, so that the condition that the primary mode of PNS safety inspection is out of limit and scanning cannot be performed occurs. Currently, after this situation occurs, an operator is usually required to reset the scanning protocol parameters of the PNS overrun slice to be scanned according to experience, and then start PNS security check again until PNS overrun does not occur in all slices to be scanned.
In summary, for high magnetic fields, the magnetic resonance scanning method in the prior art has the problem that the modification of scanning protocol parameters is time-consuming and labor-consuming.

According to the technical scheme of the scanning protocol parameter determining method provided by the embodiment of the invention, if the set scanning protocol parameter enables a target object to have PNS overrun slice to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, the scanning protocol parameter is updated, and the scanning protocol parameter updating method comprises the step of determining the application directions of a slice selection gradient, a phase encoding gradient and a frequency encoding gradient based on a golden ratio algorithm. Because the golden ratio algorithm can give a dense and uniformly distributed normal vector distribution diagram, the normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned, which is determined according to the golden ratio algorithm, can not only solve the problem of PNS overrun, but also make the included angle between the updated normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned and the original normal vector smaller, and the smaller included angle of the normal vector corresponds to shorter gradient field forming time, and the automatic updating of the scanning protocol parameters is helpful for reducing the time spent by an operator for modifying the scanning protocol parameters, so that the magnetic resonance imaging time can be reduced from multiple aspects.

Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described by means of implementation examples with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Example 1
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a magnetic resonance scanning method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The technical scheme of the embodiment is suitable for the condition of quickly and automatically completing the modification of the scanning protocol parameters. The method may be performed by a controller provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
s101, setting scanning protocol parameters, wherein the scanning protocol parameters are used for exciting one or more slices of a target object, and the scanning protocol parameters comprise a slice selection gradient, a phase encoding gradient and a frequency encoding gradient.
Before performing magnetic resonance scanning on a target object, corresponding scanning protocol parameters need to be set at a parameter setting interface. The scan protocol parameters include slice selection gradients (parameters), phase encoding gradients (parameters), and frequency encoding gradients (parameters), and are used to excite one or more slices of the target subject. By way of example, the parameters of the slice selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient can be the direction of application of the gradient field, the field strength of the gradient field, the moment of application of the gradient, the duration of the gradient, etc. The target object may be a tissue, organ or local area of interest in a human or animal body and comprises one or more slices to be scanned.
In some embodiments, the scan protocol parameters further include, but are not limited to, time-dependent parameters such as repetition time, echo time, effective echo time, echo chain length, echo gap, inversion time, excitation times, acquisition time, or spatial resolution-dependent parameters such as layer thickness, layer spacing, matrix, and field of view, or deflection angle is equal to energy-dependent parameters.
S101, updating the scanning protocol parameters when the scanning protocol parameters are detected so that the target object has PNS overrun slices to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, wherein the updating method of the scanning protocol parameters comprises the step of determining the application direction of one or more of a slice selection gradient, a phase encoding gradient and a frequency encoding gradient based on a golden ratio algorithm.
In one embodiment, the scanning protocols may include segmented scanning protocols corresponding to different scanning time periods, scanning protocol parameters of each segmented scanning protocol may be calculated respectively, so that whether a PNS overrun to-be-scanned slice exists in the target object in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, and updating of scanning protocol parameters is performed only on the segmented scanning protocols with PNS overrun to-be-scanned slices, thereby improving online operation efficiency of the sequence.
In one embodiment, the scanning protocols may include segmented scanning protocols corresponding to different scanning time periods, scanning protocol parameters of each segmented scanning protocol may be calculated respectively, so that whether PNS overrun to-be-scanned slices exist in the target object in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process or not is ensured, and the scanning protocol parameters of all segmented scanning protocols are updated to obtain a globally optimized scanning protocol, so that quality of final imaging is ensured.
After setting the scan protocol parameters, PNS security checks are preferably performed on the scan protocol parameters before using the scan protocol parameters to perform magnetic resonance scanning on the target object in order to improve the security of the magnetic resonance scanning. If the scanning protocol parameter is detected during the safety inspection so that the target object has PNS overrun slices to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, the scanning protocol parameter is updated.
Wherein the updating method of the scanning protocol parameters comprises determining the application direction of one or more of the slice selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient based on the golden ratio algorithm. The method comprises the following steps: and generating a normal vector distribution diagram of the PNS overrun slice to be scanned according to a golden ratio algorithm, wherein the normal vector in the normal vector distribution diagram is distributed around the original normal vector of the slice to be scanned. Fig. 2A and fig. 2B show distribution of a large number of normal vectors within a range of 5 degrees around an original normal vector of a slice to be scanned, the center of a target object is equivalent to the origin of coordinates in fig. 2A or fig. 2B, the slice to be scanned of the target object is in a plane determined by XY, a plurality of points in fig. 2A are a plurality of projection points of a plurality of preset vectors on a spherical surface, fig. 2B is a plurality of preset vectors passing through the center of the target object, and the rotation angle of each preset normal vector is different from the original normal vector of the slice to be scanned; determining a target normal vector in the normal vector distribution map; and determining the application direction of one or more of a slice selection gradient, a phase encoding gradient and a frequency encoding gradient corresponding to the slice to be scanned according to the target normal vector.
The method for generating the vector distribution map based on the golden ratio algorithm comprises the following steps: determining golden angles corresponding to a plurality of preset vectors; calculating the coordinates of the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction of a plurality of projection points of each preset vector on the spherical surface and the coordinates of the Z-axis of a plurality of projection points of each preset vector on the spherical surface respectively under the golden ratio through the golden angle corresponding to the preset vector; and obtaining the distance (or the minimum spherical distance) between the projection point and the center of the target object in the golden ratio according to the three coordinates. Wherein:
phi(n)=2×3.14×137.51×n/360
theta(n)=asin(n/N)
x=cos(theta(n))×cos(phi(n))
y=cos(theta(n))×sin(phi(n))
z=sin(theta(n))
wherein n is an index number, phi is an angle, theta (n) is an included angle between a layer normal vector and an XY plane; the angle between the projection of Phi (n) normal vector on the XY plane and X. In some embodiments, the slice direction to be scanned is the XY plane direction, X is the readout gradient direction, Y is the phase encoding direction, and Z is the slice selection gradient direction.
To facilitate a more intuitive understanding of the distribution in the normal vector distribution map, the distribution angle range of the normal vector is set to 180 degrees, i.e., the normal vector is distributed over a hemisphere, see fig. 3A, and the projections of the plurality of pre-vectors are distributed on the spherical surface. In fig. 3A, the relationship of the minimum spherical distance between normal vectors to the corresponding number is seen in fig. 3B. In the embodiment of the invention, the method for generating the vector distribution diagram based on the golden ratio algorithm and determining the target normal vector based on the distribution diagram is not easy to be influenced by the number of the preset normal vectors, when the number of the preset normal vectors changes from 0 to 1000, the distance difference between the target normal vector and the original layer normal vector is small, and the target normal vector fluctuates within the range of 0.05-0.08, so that the method has good robustness. The target normal vector selected by the method can not generate larger errors due to the number of the preset normal vectors, and the calculation accuracy of the target normal vector is high.
Preferably, the scanning protocol parameter updating method comprises the following steps: and setting the number of the normal vector with the smallest included angle with the original normal vector of the slice to be scanned in the normal vector distribution diagram to be 0, calculating whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field corresponding to each normal vector exceeds a threshold value from the normal vector with the number of 0, if so, determining that the normal vector can cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned, and if not, determining that the normal vector can not cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned. And taking the first normal vector which does not cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned during magnetic resonance data acquisition as the target normal vector of the slice to be scanned. It should be noted that, when the number of normal vectors in the normal vector distribution diagram, that is, the number of spherical points in fig. 2A varies from 0 to 1000, PNS corresponding to the gradient field obtained by optimization is basically maintained between 0.05 and 0.08, that is, the method for updating the scanning protocol parameters based on the golden ratio algorithm is not easily affected by the number of normal vectors, and has good stability and high accuracy of updating results.
In an embodiment, the scanning protocols may include segmented scanning protocols corresponding to different scanning time periods, and the PNS value corresponding to each segmented scanning protocol is calculated by the following formula: Wherein SR is the gradient climbing rate, gscale is the maximum dB/dt generated in the conforming volume when the gradient climbs at the climbing rate of 1T/m/s, and Limit is the threshold of the normal mode or the primary controlled operation mode.
In one embodiment, the scanning protocol may include a segmented scanning protocol corresponding to different scanning time periods, and the global PNS value calculation formula corresponding to the scanning protocol is:wherein o represents the equivalent global maximum PNS value after merging gradient units in three directions; w (w) i Weights representing the gradient units in each direction; o (o) i The individual PNS values for each gradient element are represented, i representing the number of gradient elements, 1.ltoreq.i.ltoreq.3, which may form, for example, a layer selection gradient field, a phase encoding gradient field and a frequency encoding gradient field.
When judging whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field exceeds the threshold value, it may be judged only whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field on a certain axis exceeds the threshold value of the axis, or whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field on each axis exceeds the threshold value of each axis, the latter being preferable in this embodiment.
In some embodiments, upon updating of scan protocol parameters, the direction of application of the slice selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, and frequency encoding gradient for the slice to be scanned for which PNS overrun exists is determined based only on the golden ratio algorithm, while preserving the slice selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, and frequency encoding gradient for the slice to be scanned for which PNS overrun does not occur. In other words, when the scan protocol parameters need to be updated, only the partial scan protocol parameters corresponding to the slice to be scanned, in which the PNS overrun exists, may be updated.
In some embodiments, when the scanning protocol parameters are updated, the application directions of the layer selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient of all the layers to be scanned are redetermined according to the golden ratio algorithm and the original normal vector of the layers to be scanned with PNS overrun. In other words, when it is detected that the scan protocol parameters need to be updated, the scan protocol parameters of all the slices to be scanned are updated based on the golden ratio algorithm, so that the PNS overrun problem does not exist in all the slices to be scanned.
In some embodiments, when the scanning protocol parameter is detected so that the target object has a PNS overrun slice to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, PNS overrun prompt information is output, so that a user can know the scannable range of the current scanning protocol parameter in time.
In some embodiments, the update-prompting message is also output before the update of the scan protocol parameters is completed. As shown in fig. 4, the update-promoting information includes recommended values of the protocol parameters, where the recommended values include: one or more of a gradient rotation angle recommended value, a gradient recommended mode, a bandwidth recommended value, a reading resolution recommended value and a phase resolution recommended value can be selected by a user to accept one or more recommended values for updating the scanning protocol parameters.
In some embodiments, the update hint information further includes summary information, such as a recommended value of a protocol parameter displayed for a display interface in fig. 4, and determines that PNS is limited according to the scanned protocol parameter, and the current security mode is a normal mode. The rotation angle corresponding to the slice to be scanned is a column in the recommended parameters, the scanning protocol parameters are that the user adjusts the current cross section (TRA) to be rotated by 3.5 degrees by the coronal plane (COR), and the system recommends that the user adjusts the current cross section (TRA) to be rotated by 5.6 degrees by the coronal plane (COR). In some embodiments, a column of gradient modes in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the gradient mode high for the user, and the system recommends the gradient mode low for the user. In some embodiments, a column of bandwidths in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current bandwidth to 2500 for the user, and the system recommends the current bandwidth to 2450 for the user. In some embodiments, a layer thickness column in the recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current layer thickness to 3mm for the user, and the system recommends the current layer thickness to 3.2mm for the user. The read resolution in the recommended parameters is column, the scan protocol parameters set the current read resolution to 256 for the user, and the system recommends the current read resolution to 240 for the user. In some embodiments, a column of phase resolution in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current phase resolution to 100% for the user, and the system recommends the current phase resolution to 98% for the user. Of course, a protocol details option for querying updated scan protocol parameter specific information, such as "open protocol" in fig. 4, is also included.
In some embodiments, the update hint information further includes a scan protocol parameter selection option, see "O" in fig. 4, where the parameter corresponding to the selected "O" (first "O" in fig. 4) is the scan protocol parameter selected by the user, and the parameter corresponding to the "O" that is not selected is the scan protocol parameter abandoned by the user. It will be appreciated that the scan protocol parameters discarded by the user are scan protocol parameters that are disabled.
Also included in fig. 4 are a "ok" option and a "cancel" option. In some embodiments, if the user clicks the "ok" option, it indicates that the user accepts the current scan protocol parameter update information, and if the user clicks the "cancel" option, it indicates that the user does not accept the current scan protocol parameter update information, at which time a PNS overrun hint is preferably output, and the PNS overrun hint is associated with the update hint information, so that the user refers to the update hint information again.
S103, performing magnetic resonance imaging on the target object according to the updated scanning protocol parameters.
After the updated scanning protocol parameters are obtained, performing magnetic resonance scanning on the target object according to the updated scanning protocol parameters to obtain magnetic resonance data, and then performing magnetic resonance image reconstruction on the magnetic resonance data to obtain a magnetic resonance image of the target object.
According to the technical scheme of the scanning protocol parameter determining method provided by the embodiment of the invention, if the set scanning protocol parameter enables a target object to have PNS overrun slice to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, the scanning protocol parameter is updated, and the scanning protocol parameter updating method comprises the step of determining the application directions of a slice selection gradient, a phase encoding gradient and a frequency encoding gradient based on a golden ratio algorithm. Because the golden ratio algorithm can give a dense and uniformly distributed normal vector distribution diagram, the normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned, which is determined according to the golden ratio algorithm, can not only solve the problem of PNS overrun, but also make the included angle between the updated normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned and the original normal vector smaller, and the smaller included angle of the normal vector corresponds to shorter gradient field forming time, and the automatic updating of the scanning protocol parameters is helpful for reducing the time spent by an operator for modifying the scanning protocol parameters, so that the magnetic resonance imaging time can be reduced from multiple aspects.
Example two
On the basis of the scan protocol parameter determining method, the application also provides a magnetic resonance imaging method, which divides the scan protocol into a plurality of visualized sequence sub-modules: sequence regular sub-modules, sequence basic building blocks, which are present in the tool box in the form of visualization modules. The sequence conventional submodules comprise a fat pressing module, a space saturation band module, a reverse recovery module and the like; the sequence basis building blocks include, for example, RF excitation pulses, refocusing pulses, slice selection gradients, phase encoding gradients, frequency encoding gradients, and the like. The basic constituent units can flexibly carry out parameter configuration so as to meet the design requirement of a target sequence. The parameter settings of the slice selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient, and the frequency encoding gradient may be as described in the foregoing steps S101 and S102.
In one embodiment, the operator can drag modules in the tool box into the target sequence, and optionally adjust the sequence composition modules and timing relationships as desired by the design. Further, the timing relationship may implement an automatic optimization function. Illustratively, when the scanning protocol requires a minimum repetition Time (TR) design, the system can optimize the timing of each RF excitation pulse and gradient layer selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, frequency encoding gradient using an automatic algorithm to achieve the minimum TR design objective.
In one embodiment, the scan protocol is associated with a mannequin that includes one or more of patient height, weight, fat content and distribution, physiological motion state, etc., parameters of the mannequin may be adaptively modified for different patients, while thresholds of the scan protocol associated with the mannequin may be synchronously modified, such as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) values, PNS values, etc. By setting the scanning protocol to be associated with a human body model, the human body model can be conveniently and flexibly adjusted to adapt to different scanning requirements.

Before performing magnetic resonance scanning on a target object, corresponding scanning protocol parameters need to be set at a parameter setting interface. The scan protocol parameters include slice selection gradients, phase encoding gradients, and frequency encoding gradients, and are used to drive gradient coils to apply gradient fields of slice selection directions, phase encoding directions, and frequency encoding directions to a target object.
In some embodiments, the scan protocol parameters also include, but are not limited to, layer thickness, bandwidth, gradient pattern.
After setting the scan protocol parameters, PNS security checks are preferably performed on the scan protocol parameters before using the scan protocol parameters to perform magnetic resonance scanning on the target object in order to improve the security of the magnetic resonance scanning. If the scanning protocol parameter is detected during the safety inspection so that the target object has PNS overrun slices to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, the scanning protocol parameter is updated.
Wherein the method of updating the scan protocol parameters comprises determining the direction of application of one or more of the slice selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient based on a golden ratio algorithm. The method comprises the following steps: and generating a normal vector distribution diagram of the PNS overrun slice to be scanned according to a golden ratio algorithm, wherein the normal vector in the normal vector distribution diagram is distributed around the original normal vector of the slice to be scanned. FIGS. 2A and 2B show the distribution of a large number of normal vectors within 5 degrees around the original normal vector of the sheet to be scanned; determining a target normal vector in the normal vector distribution map; and determining a rotation angle according to an included angle between the target normal vector and the normal vector of the slice to be scanned, and redetermining the application directions of the layer selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient corresponding to the slice to be scanned according to the rotation angle and the normal vector of the slice to be scanned.
The method for generating the vector distribution map based on the golden ratio algorithm comprises the following steps: determining golden angles corresponding to a plurality of preset vectors; calculating the coordinates of the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction of a plurality of projection points of each preset vector on the spherical surface and the coordinates of the Z-axis of a plurality of projection points of each preset vector on the spherical surface respectively under the golden ratio through the golden angle corresponding to the preset vector; and obtaining the distance (or the minimum spherical distance) between the projection point and the center of the target object in the golden ratio according to the three coordinates. Wherein:
phi(n)=2×3.14×137.51×n/360
theta(n)=asin(n/N)
x=cos(theta(n))×cos(phi(n))
y=cos(theta(n))×sin(phi(n))
z=sin(theta(n))
wherein n is an index number, phi is an angle, theta (n) is an included angle between a layer normal vector and an XY plane; the angle between the projection of Phi (n) normal vector on the XY plane and X. In some embodiments, the slice direction to be scanned is the XY plane direction, X is the readout gradient direction, Y is the phase encoding direction, and Z is the slice selection gradient direction.
To facilitate a more intuitive understanding of the distribution in the normal vector distribution map, the distribution angle range of the normal vector is set to 180 degrees, i.e., the normal vector is distributed on a hemisphere, see fig. 3A. In fig. 3A, the relationship of the minimum spherical distance between normal vectors to the corresponding number is seen in fig. 3B.
Preferably, the scanning protocol parameter updating method comprises the following steps: and setting the number of the normal vector with the smallest included angle with the original normal vector of the slice to be scanned in the normal vector distribution diagram to be 0, calculating whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field corresponding to each normal vector exceeds a threshold value from the normal vector with the number of 0, if so, determining that the normal vector can cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned, and if not, determining that the normal vector can not cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned. And taking the first normal vector which does not cause PNS overrun of the slice to be scanned during magnetic resonance data acquisition as the target normal vector of the slice to be scanned. It should be noted that, when the number of normal vectors in the normal vector distribution diagram, that is, the number of spherical points in fig. 2A varies from 0 to 1000, PNS corresponding to the gradient field obtained by optimization is basically maintained between 0.05 and 0.08, that is, the method for updating the scanning protocol parameters based on the golden ratio algorithm is not easily affected by the number of normal vectors, and has good stability and high accuracy of updating results.
When judging whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field exceeds the threshold value, it may be judged only whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field on a certain axis exceeds the threshold value of the axis, or whether the gradient climbing rate of the magnetic field on each axis exceeds the threshold value of each axis, the latter being preferable in this embodiment.
In some embodiments, upon updating of scan protocol parameters, the direction of application of the slice selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, and frequency encoding gradient for the slice to be scanned for which PNS overrun exists is determined based only on the golden ratio algorithm, while preserving the slice selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, and frequency encoding gradient for the slice to be scanned for which PNS overrun does not occur. In other words, when the scan protocol parameters need to be updated, only the partial scan protocol parameters corresponding to the slice to be scanned, in which the PNS overrun exists, may be updated.
In some embodiments, when the scanning protocol parameters are updated, the application directions of the layer selection gradient, the phase encoding gradient and the frequency encoding gradient of all the layers to be scanned are redetermined according to the golden ratio algorithm and the original normal vector of the layers to be scanned with PNS overrun. In other words, when it is detected that the scan protocol parameters need to be updated, the scan protocol parameters of all the slices to be scanned are updated based on the golden ratio algorithm, so that the PNS overrun problem does not exist in all the slices to be scanned.
In some embodiments, when the scanning protocol parameter is detected so that the target object has a PNS overrun slice to be scanned in the magnetic resonance data acquisition process, PNS overrun prompt information is output, so that a user can know the scannable range of the current scanning protocol parameter in time.
In some embodiments, after the update of the scan protocol parameters is completed, an update hint is also output. As shown in fig. 4, the update-promoting information includes cross-section (TRA) rotation angle information and coronal plane (COR) rotation angle information, gradient pattern, bandwidth, resolution, and layer thickness.
In some embodiments, the update hint information further includes summary information, such as a recommended value of a protocol parameter displayed for a display interface in fig. 4, and determines that PNS is limited according to the scanned protocol parameter, and the current security mode is a normal mode. The rotation angle corresponding to the slice to be scanned is a column in the recommended parameters, the scanning protocol parameters are that the user adjusts the current cross section (TRA) to be rotated by 3.5 degrees by the coronal plane (COR), and the system recommends that the user adjusts the current cross section (TRA) to be rotated by 5.6 degrees by the coronal plane (COR). In some embodiments, a column of gradient modes in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the gradient mode high for the user, and the system recommends the gradient mode low for the user. In some embodiments, a column of bandwidths in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current bandwidth to 2500 for the user, and the system recommends the current bandwidth to 2450 for the user. In some embodiments, a layer thickness column in the recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current layer thickness to 3mm for the user, and the system recommends the current layer thickness to 3.2mm for the user. The read resolution in the recommended parameters is column, the scan protocol parameters set the current read resolution to 256 for the user, and the system recommends the current read resolution to 240 for the user. In some embodiments, a column of phase resolution in recommended parameters may also be included, the scan protocol parameters set the current phase resolution to 100% for the user, and the system recommends the current phase resolution to 98% for the user. Of course, a protocol details option for querying updated scan protocol parameter specific information, such as "open protocol" in fig. 4, is also included.
In some embodiments, the update hint information further includes a scan protocol parameter selection option, see "O" in fig. 4, where the parameter corresponding to the selected "O" (first "O" in fig. 4) is the scan protocol parameter selected by the user, and the parameter corresponding to the "O" that is not selected is the scan protocol parameter abandoned by the user. It will be appreciated that the scan protocol parameters discarded by the user are scan protocol parameters that are disabled.
Also included in fig. 4 are a "ok" option and a "cancel" option. In some embodiments, if the user clicks the "ok" option, it indicates that the user accepts the current scan protocol parameter update information, and if the user clicks the "cancel" option, it indicates that the user does not accept the current scan protocol parameter update information, at which time a PNS overrun hint is preferably output, and the PNS overrun hint is associated with the update hint information, so that the user refers to the update hint information again.
After the updated scanning protocol parameters are obtained, performing magnetic resonance scanning on the target object according to the updated scanning protocol parameters to obtain magnetic resonance data, and then performing magnetic resonance image reconstruction on the magnetic resonance data to obtain a magnetic resonance image of the target object.
Because the golden ratio algorithm can give a dense and uniformly distributed normal vector distribution diagram, the normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned, which is determined according to the golden ratio algorithm, can not only solve the problem of PNS overrun, but also make the included angle between the updated normal vector of the gradient field of the slice to be scanned and the original normal vector smaller, and the smaller included angle of the normal vector corresponds to shorter gradient field forming time, and the automatic updating of the scanning protocol parameters is helpful for reducing the time spent by an operator for modifying the scanning protocol parameters, so that the magnetic resonance imaging time can be reduced from multiple aspects.
