titleOfInvention | Zero echo time mr imaging with water/fat separation |
abstract | The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object positioned in an examination volume of a MR device (1), the method comprises the steps of: - subjecting the object (10) to an imaging sequence of RF pulses (20) and switched magnetic field gradients(G), which imaging sequence is a zero echo time sequence comprising: i) setting a readout magnetic field gradient (G) having a readout direction and a readout strength; ii) radiating a RF pulse (20) in the presence of the readout magnetic field gradient (G); iii) acquiring a FID signal in the presence of the readout magnetic field gradient (G), wherein the FID signal represents a radial k-space sample; iv) gradually varying the readout direction; v) sampling a spherical volume in k-space by repeating steps i) through iv) a number of times, with the readout strength being varied between repetitions; - reconstructing a MR image from the acquired FID signals, wherein signal contributions of two or more chemical species to the acquired FID signals are separated. It is an object of the invention to enable silent ZTE imaging in combination with water/fat separation. This is achieved by varying the readout strength such that each position in k-space is sampled at least two times, each time with a different value of the readout strength. Moreover, the invention relates to a MR device and to a computer program for a MR device. |
