Capturing magnetic resonance image data
Capturing MR image data of an examination object using an MR apparatus, including: performing a balanced steady-state free precession sequence with phase progress of 180 degrees per repetition time using the MR apparatus; in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, providing a white-marker gradient in order at least partially to balance a dephasing caused by a magnetic-field-changing object in the examination object; capturing image data of the examination object using the MR apparatus at an echo time; and adjusting a phase development between phase magnetization of a first and second materials, which form an interface in the examination object, in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence using the MR apparatus, wherein due to the adjusting of the phase development before an effect of the white-marker gradient, a co-phasal alignment of a magnetization of the first material and of the second material at the interface is effected at the echo time.
1 . A method for capturing magnetic resonance image data of an object under examination using a magnetic resonance apparatus, the method comprising:
performing a balanced steady-state free precession sequence with a phase progress of 180 degrees per repetition time using the magnetic resonance apparatus;
in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, providing a white-marker gradient in order at least partially to balance a dephasing caused by a magnetic-field-changing object in the object under examination;
capturing image data of the object under examination using the magnetic resonance apparatus at an echo time; and
adjusting a phase development between a phase of a magnetization of a first material and a phase of a magnetization of a second material, which form an interface in the object under examination, in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence using the magnetic resonance apparatus, wherein due to the adjusting of the phase development prior to an effect of the white-marker gradient, a co-phasal alignment of a magnetization of the first material and of the second material at the interface is effected at the echo time.
2 . A magnetic resonance apparatus for capturing magnetic resonance image data of an object under examination, wherein the magnetic resonance apparatus is configured to:
provide a balanced steady-state free precession sequence with a phase progress of 180 degrees per repetition time;
in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, provide a white-marker gradient in order at least partially to balance a dephasing caused by a magnetic-field-changing object in the object under examination;
capture image data of the object under examination at an echo time; and
adjust a phase development between a phase of a magnetization of a first material and a phase of a magnetization of a second material, which form an interface in the object under examination, in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, wherein
the adjustment of the phase development prior to an effect of the white-marker gradient effects a co-phasal alignment of a magnetization of the first material and of the second material at the interface at the echo time.
3 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the adjusting of the phase development comprises:
setting a scanner frequency of the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, wherein the scanner frequency lies in a center between a Larmor frequency of the first material and a Larmor frequency of the second material.
4 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the adjusting of the phase development comprises:
providing an additional phase progress per repetition time of the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, wherein the following applies for the additional phase progress of the balanced steady-state free precession sequence:
((fLarmor,m1−fLarmor,m2)/2)*TR*360°.
5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first material is fat and the second material is water.
6 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first material is silicone and the second material is water.
7 . A non-transitory computer program product comprising a computer program, which is loadable directly into a memory of a control facility of a magnetic resonance apparatus having program means to execute the steps of the method as claimed in claim 1 , when the program is executed in the control facility of the magnetic resonance apparatus.
