Abstract
Systems and methods for low-field multi-directional diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging process are provided. One or more output images are generated based on multi-directional image reconstructions. Motion may be quantified based on signal variation. Certain data may be rejected based on the quantified motion. Image reconstructions may exclude data based on the quantified motion.
Claims20
A low-field multi-directional diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging method, the method comprising:
- quantifying motion based on signal variation;
- and
- generating one or more output images based on multi-directional image reconstructions that exclude data based on the quantified motion.
A low-field MRI system for multi-directional diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, the MRI system comprising one or more processors configured to:
- quantify motion based on signal variation;
- and
- generate one or more output images based on multi-directional image reconstructions that exclude data based on the quantified motion.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a magnetic resonance imaging system, a computing device, or a computing system in communication with the magnetic resonance imaging system, cause the one or more processors to:
- quantify motion based on signal variation;
- and
- generate one or more output images based on multi-directional image reconstructions that exclude data based on the quantified motion.
