Synthetic bright-blood and dark-blood PSIR LGE images

A method comprising:

• determining a first map of a first parameter based on first signals acquired by a magnetic resonance scanner, the first map associating each of a plurality of voxels with a respective value of the first parameter, the first parameter quantifying a first physical characteristic of an object represented by the plurality of voxels;
• determining a second map of a second parameter based on the first signals, the second map associating each of the plurality of voxels with a respective value of the second parameter, the second parameter quantifying a second physical characteristic of the object;
• and
• determining a dark-blood phase-sensitive inversion recovery late gadolinium enhancement (DB PSIR LGE) image based on the first map of the first parameter and on the second map of the second parameter.

A computing system comprising:

• a memory storing processor-executable program code;
• and
• one or more processors to execute the program code to:
• determine a first map of a first parameter based on first signals acquired by a magnetic resonance scanner, the first map associating each of a plurality of voxels with a respective value of the first parameter, the first parameter quantifying a first physical characteristic of an object represented by the plurality of voxels;
• determine a second map of a second parameter based on the first signals, the second map associating each of the plurality of voxels with a respective value of the second parameter, the second parameter quantifying a second physical characteristic of the object;
• and
• determine a dark-blood phase-sensitive inversion recovery late gadolinium enhancement (DB PSIR LGE) image based on the first map of the first parameter and on the second map of the second parameter.
