We present here a method for analyzing selective excitation in terms of spatial frequency ( k ) space. Using this analysis we show how to design inherently refocused selective excitation pulses in one and two dimensions. The analysis is based on a sm

The invention and development of MRI took place under very desirable circumstances. Dr. Lauterbur, a distinguished NMR chemist, conceived of the basic idea. Once this concept was presented to the medical imaging community, a wonderful synergy develop

Prepolarized MRI (PMRI) with pulsed electromagnets has the potential to produce diagnostic quality 0.5- to 1.0-T images with significantly reduced cost, susceptibility artifacts, specific absorption rate, and gradient noise. In PMRI, the main magneti

A prepolarized MRI (PMRI) scanner was used to image near metal implants in agar gel phantoms and in in vivo human wrists. Comparison images were made on 1.5- and 0.5-T conventional whole-body systems. The PMRI experiments were performed in a smaller

We introduce a technique for designing homogeneous magnets using linear programming, We first show that minimum-power homogeneous magnet design can be cast as a linear programming problem. We also show that the method is applicable to minimum conduct

A graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed which enables interactive feedback and control to the real-time diminishing variance algorithm (DVA). This interactivity allows the user to set scan parameters, view scan statistics, and view image

Phase contrast velocity imaging is a standard method for accurate in vivo flow measurement. One drawback, however, is that it lengthens the scan time (or reduces the achievable temporal resolution) because one has to acquire two or more images with d

A new technique for designing resistive homogeneous multicoil magnets for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is presented. A linearly independent subset of coils is chosen from a user-defined feasible set using an efficient numerical algorithm. The coi
