The present disclosure provides a system for MRI. The system may obtain MRI scan data of a subject by directing an MRI scanner to perform an MRI scan on the subject according to a first gradient waveform. The system may also determine a second gradient waveform based on the first gradient waveform and a gradient waveform determination model. The gradient waveform determination model may have been trained according to a machine learning algorithm. The system may further generate a target reconstruction image of the subject based on the second gradient waveform and the MRI scan data.

The present disclosure relates to quantitative magnetic resonance imaging. A time series of magnetic resonance images of an examination region are assigned to different time points following an excitation is acquired by means of a magnetic resonance device, a signal evolution varying with respect to time is determined from the magnetic resonance images for each pixel from the magnetic resonance data of all of the magnetic resonance images and, by comparison of the signal evolution with comparison evolutions stored in a database, at least one quantitative result value on which the comparison evolution exhibiting the greatest agreement is based is assigned to a respective pixel.

An MRI scanner and a method for operation of the MRI scanner are provided. The MRI scanner has a first receiving antenna for receiving a magnetic resonance signal from a patient in a patient tunnel, a second receiving antenna for receiving a signal having the Larmor frequency of the magnetic resonance signal, and a receiver. The second receiving antenna is located outside of the patient tunnel or near an opening thereof. The receiver has a signal connection to the first receiving antenna and the second receiving antenna and is configured to suppress an interference signal by the second receiving antenna in the magnetic resonance signal received by the first receiving antenna.

The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10). It is an object of the invention to enable MR imaging in the presence of motion of the imaged object, wherein full use is made of the acquired MR signal and a high-quality MR image essentially free from motion artefacts is obtained. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: generating MR signals by subjecting the object (10) to an imaging sequence comprising RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients; acquiring the MR signals as signal data over a given period of time (T); subdividing the period of time into a number of successive time segments (SO, S1, S2, . . . Sn); deriving a geometric transformation (DVF1, DVF2, . . . DVFn) in image space for each pair of consecutive time segments (S0, S1, S2, . . . Sn), which geometric transformation (DVF1, DVF2, . . . DVFn) reflects motion occurring between the two time segments of the respective pair; and reconstructing an MR image from the signal data, wherein a motion compensation is applied according to the derived geometric transformations (DVF1, DVF2, . . . DVFn). Moreover, the invention relates to an MR device (1) and to a computer program for an MR device (1).
