In the cycle of 1TR, repeat aforesaid operations, for example 256 times.When each repetitive operation, change phase encoding gradient magnetic field Gp between repeatedly repeating, to form different phase codes.With dashed lines is represented this situation in Fig. 2 (3).
Referring now to Fig. 3,, the figure shows the bidimensional Fourier space that in memorizer, forms, also be referred to as the conceptual diagram in " k-space " sometimes.As shown in Figure 3, said bidimensional Fourier space has mutually orthogonal two coordinate axes kx and ky.The kx axle is represented frequency axis, and the ky axle is represented phase shaft.Bidimensional Fourier space changes along two axles from+100% to-100%.
Bidimensional Fourier space is along the axle of phase shaft direction with respect to ky=0, and perhaps frequency axis kx is divided into 8 zones symmetrically, promptly regional A, A ', B, B ', C, C ', D and D '.Every group of zone A and A ', B and B ', C and C ', D and D ' constitute a pair of zone that is mutually symmetrical.
Zone group A and A ' are right with the most approaching zone of frequency axis kx, and these two zones are called as " middle section " hereinafter.Zone A and A ' represent an example of middle section according to the present invention.Other area B and B ', C and C ', D and D ' be arranged in regular turn regional A and A ' around, they represent an example of neighboring area according to the present invention.
Preferably, bidimensional Fourier space is divided into regional A, A '-D, D ' equably, makes to have impartial interval hereinafter the time phase of a plurality of reconstructed images of detailed description.But, when allowing to have unequal interval time phase, divide with regard to not needing that equalization is carried out in bidimensional Fourier space.In addition, the quantity of division is not limited to 8, and can be to be equal to or greater than any even number of 6.This division is finished by computer 18.
As illustrational hereinafter, computer 18 carries out data acquisition according to certain order for the bidimensional Fourier space of so dividing.Some examples of data acquisition track in Fig. 4-6, have been represented to carry out for bidimensional Fourier space.
At first, gather viewdata (hereafter is " data ") along track shown in Figure 4.At first have+data of 100% phase code amount along track 1 collection.Track 1 belongs to neighboring area D.Then, gather data along track 2 with-100% phase code amount.Track 2 belongs to neighboring area D '.
But track 1 and 2 is arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the same absolute contrary sign.For the time difference between track 1 and 2 data of gathering is 1TR.The time difference of 1TR is the minima by time difference between the data of apparatus of the present invention collection.For example, 1TR equals 20 milliseconds.In other words, collection has for example data of 20 milliseconds of time differences on the position that is mutually symmetrical along phase shaft direction in the bidimensional Fourier space.Can think positively that these data have essentially identical time phase.
Then, gather the data of phase code amount with the little step of ratio+100% along the track 3 that belongs to neighboring area D.Then, gather the data that have than the phase code amount of one 100% a little step along the track 4 that belongs to neighboring area D '.But track 3 and 4 is arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the same absolute contrary sign.Time difference between track 3 and 4 data of gathering is 1TR.
Afterwards, replace image data according to same way as in the symmetric position of neighboring area D and D '.So the time difference in neighboring area D and D ' between the data of symmetric position collection is respectively 1TR.
When finishing at track m during for the data acquisition of neighboring area D and D ', beginning is for the data acquisition of middle section A and A '.In other words, gathers in middle section A along a track m+1 who belongs to middle section A and to have the data of maximum positive phase encoding amount, an edge track m+2 belonging to middle section A ' gathers in middle section A ' and has the data of maximum minus phase encoding amount then.
Then, in middle section A, gather the data that have than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum positive phase encoding amount along a track m+3 who belongs to middle section A, in middle section A ', gather the data that have than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum minus phase encoding amount along a track m+4 who belongs to middle section A ' then.Afterwards, according to same way as symmetric position image data continuously in middle section A and A ', till reaching the track n-1 and n adjacent with the ky=0 axle.Equally, the time difference between the data of symmetric position collection is respectively 1TR in middle section A and A '.
Then, along track image data shown in Figure 5.In other words, gathers in the C of neighboring area along the track 1 ' that belongs to neighboring area C and to have the data of maximum positive phase encoding amount, the edge track 2 ' that belongs to neighboring area C ' is gathered in the C ' of neighboring area and is had the data of maximum minus phase encoding amount then.
But track 1 ' and 2 ' is arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the same absolute contrary sign.Time difference between track 1 ' and the 2 ' data of gathering is 1TR.
Then, in the C of neighboring area, gather the data that have than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum positive phase encoding amount along the track 3 ' that belongs to neighboring area C.Then, in the C ' of neighboring area, gather the data that have than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum minus phase encoding amount along the track 4 that belongs to neighboring area C '.But track 3 ' and 4 ' is arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the maximum value contrary sign.Time difference between track 3 ' and the 4 ' data of gathering is 1TR.
Afterwards, replace image data according to the symmetric position of the same manner in neighboring area C and C '.So the time difference between the data of the symmetric position collection in neighboring area C and C ' is respectively 1TR.
When finishing the data acquisition of the track m ' in neighboring area C and C ', the data acquisition of beginning middle section A and A '.The data acquisition of middle section A and A ' is carried out according to aforementioned the same manner.So the time difference in middle section A and A ' between the data of symmetric position collection is respectively 1TR.But the data of gathering for middle section A and A ' this moment and front are that the data of middle section A and A ' collection are separated and are kept in the memorizer.
Then, edge track image data as shown in Figure 6.In other words, gather the data that have maximum positive phase encoding amount among the B of neighboring area, gather the data that have maximum minus phase encoding amount among the B ' of neighboring area along the track 2y that belongs to neighboring area B ' then along the track 1y that belongs to neighboring area B.
But track 1y and 2y are arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the same absolute contrary sign.Time difference between the data of track 1y and 2y collection is 1TR.
Then, gather the data that have among the B of neighboring area than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum positive phase encoding amount along the track 3y that belongs to neighboring area B.Then, gather the data that have among the B ' of neighboring area than the phase code amount of the little step of maximum minus phase encoding amount along the track 4 ' that belongs to neighboring area B '.But track 3y and 4y are arranged in the position that bidimensional Fourier space phase code measurer has the same absolute contrary sign.Time difference between the data of gathering in track 3y and 4y is 1TR.
Afterwards, replace image data according to the same manner symmetric position in neighboring area B and B '.So the time difference in neighboring area B and B ' between the data of symmetric position collection is respectively 1TR.
When track my finishes the data acquisition of neighboring area B and B ', the data acquisition of beginning middle section A and A '.The same manner carries out the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' as described above.So the time difference in middle section A and A ' between the data of symmetric position collection is respectively 1TR.But the middle section A of middle section A that gather this moment and the data of A ' and collection in the past and the data of A ' are separated and are kept in the memorizer.
Then, program is returned data acquisition as shown in Figure 4, afterwards, carries out data acquisition as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6; And carry out whole procedure repeatedly.The data that repeated acquisition is obtained are kept at corresponding zone in the memorizer.
Fig. 7 represents above-mentioned data acquisition according to chronological order, and wherein vertical axis is represented the phase code amount, the trunnion axis express time.As shown in Figure 7, for t0-t1 hocket data acquisition of neighboring area D and D ' of each TR in the period, for t1-t2 hocket data acquisition of middle section A and A ' of each TR in the period, for t2-t3 hocket data acquisition of neighboring area C and C ' of each TR in the period, for t3-t4 in the period each TR carry out the data acquisition of middle section A and A ', for t4-t5 in the period each TR carry out the data acquisition of neighboring area B and B ', for t5-t6 in the period each TR carry out the data acquisition of middle section A and A '; And repeat whole procedure.
In other words, carry out the data acquisition of a plurality of neighboring area B and B ', C and C ' and D and D ' continuously, insert the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' at every turn in the centre.Therefore, reduced the time difference of data acquisition time between the cycle of middle section A and A '.In addition, in every pair of zone, be 1TR along the time difference between the data of phase shaft direction symmetric position collection.
Although be according to the phase code amount is carried out from the mode that maximum progressively changes to minima for each regional data acquisition as mentioned above, but obviously can carry out data acquisition like this, make the phase code amount progressively change to maximum, as the exemplary expression of Fig. 8 from minima.
The data of neighboring area C and C ' and D and D ' are exactly respectively in the data of during back and formerly period gathering adjacent with period Ti.The data acquisition period of neighboring area B and B ' is not adjacent with period Ti, but the most approaching with it.The data of neighboring area B and B ' can be used before the period Ti or after the period Ti, because they are identical with respect to the time difference of period Ti.
The image that uses these data reconstructions be basically acceptor 8 in period Ti, i.e. the image of the state of period Ti is because the data of middle section A and A ' are gathered in period Ti.
Utilize the data of the middle section A that in period Ti+1, gathers and A ' then and carry out another image reconstruction, shown in Fig. 9 (3) at neighboring area B that gathers with the immediate corresponding period of period Ti+1 and the data of B ', C and C ', D and D '.Obtain to belong to substantially the image of period Ti+1 thus.
Then, utilize at the data of middle section A that period Ti+2 gathers and A ' and the neighboring area B that in corresponding period, gathers and the data of B ', C and C ', D and D ' and carry out image reconstruction again, shown in Fig. 9 (4) near period Ti+2.Obtain to belong to substantially the image of period Ti+2 thus.
Afterwards, utilize the data of the middle section A that gathers in a certain period and A ' and the neighboring area B that gathers in corresponding period of the most approaching a certain period and the data of B ', C and C ', D and D ' to carry out image reconstruction in the same way, thereby generate image time phase of each data acquisition period of middle section A and A '.
Because data acquisition is by carrying out for the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' each the insertion when gathering the data of a plurality of neighboring areas, so reduced time difference between time phase of collection middle section A and A '.Therefore, a plurality of images of continuous reconstruct are with the state that indicates acceptor 8 time phase of minute interval.
In addition, owing to be respectively 1TR for each zone to the time difference between the data of each position of being mutually symmetrical along phase shaft, acceptor 8 any moves for data and produces influence along phase shaft direction equalization.Therefore, in bidimensional Fourier space, keep the symmetry of data, thereby avoided in reconstructed image, occurring interference images.
So apparatus of the present invention of operation can be effectively applied to various uses, obtain when being included in bend elbow or knee elbow joint or knee joint interior tissue image, the contrast agent in the injected into blood vessel is carried out dynamic imagery or to the imaging of puncture needle situation of movement in the diagnosis such as biopsy.
Though the above-mentioned data acquisition for middle section A and A ' and neighboring area B and B ', C and C ', D and D ' is carried out according to regional order, but also can be according to gathering a pair of neighboring area data, and the mode of inserting the data acquisition of a pair of middle section be carried out data acquisition.In other words, as the exemplary expression of Figure 10, data acquisition is carried out according to order, at first the track in neighboring area D and D ' 1 and 2; Then, the track in middle section A and A ' 3 and 4 '; Then, the track 5 and 6 of track 1 and 2 inboards in neighboring area D and D '; Afterwards, the track 3 in middle section A and A ' and the track 7 and 8 of 4 inboards, or the like.In neighboring area D and D ' and middle section A and A ' for each track to such data acquisition that hockets.Data acquisition to neighboring area B and B ' and C and C ' is carried out in the same way.
Figure 11 is according to the above-mentioned operation of temporal representation.As shown in the figure, carry out for the data acquisition of neighboring area D and D ' with for the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' at period t0-t0 with interlace mode, carry out for neighboring area C and C ' with for the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' at period t2-t4 with interlace mode, carry out data acquisition at period t4-t6 for neighboring area B and B ' and middle section A and A ' with interlace mode.Repeat whole procedure afterwards.Obviously, can carry out data acquisition from a point to a point as shown in figure 12 away from frequency axis near frequency axis.
By such data acquisition, obtain as Figure 13 (1) according to the data shown in the time sequencing.As shown in the figure, when carrying out the data acquisition of middle section A and A ' continuously, sequentially carry out the data acquisition of neighboring area B and B ', C and C ' and D and D '.Carry out image reconstruction according to the mode shown in for example Figure 13 (2)-(4) according to the data of so obtaining.
In other words, utilize the middle section A that gathers at period Tj and A ' data and respectively before period Tj, afterwards and the image of the data reconstruction period Tj of the neighboring area B that gathers of eclipsed with it period (shown in Figure 13 (2)) and B ', C and C ', D and D '; Middle section A that utilization is gathered at period Tj+1 and the data of A ' and respectively before period Tj+1, afterwards and the image of the data reconstruction period Tj+1 of the neighboring area B that gathers of eclipsed with it period (shown in Figure 13 (3)) and B ', C and C ', D and D '; Middle section A that utilization is gathered at period Tj+2 and the data of A ' and respectively before period Tj+2, afterwards and the image of the data reconstruction period Tj+2 of the neighboring area B that gathers of eclipsed with it period (shown in Figure 13 (4)) and B ', C and C ', D and D '.Carry out image reconstruction afterwards in the same way.Preferably, so be successive the time phase of a plurality of images of reconstruct.
