  • 摘要: 提出了基于USB 3.0总线结构的数字化多通道核磁共振成像谱仪设计方案,该方案能够极大地提高数据传输效率和通信可靠性,同时满足控制系统进行多通道扩展的需求.使用高速的外部内存芯片存储脉冲序列元素以及采样数据,可以有效提高脉冲序列的执行速度和数据传输效率,从而实现非质子MRI中的快速成像序列.该系统已在Bruker 4.7 T成像系统上完成初步联调,成功获取了高质量的水模自旋回波1H MRI图像和不同浓度NaCl溶液的23Na MRI图像,证明了控制系统设计方案的可行性和可靠性.

     

    Abstract: A digital multi-channel MRI spectrometer based on USB 3.0 bus structure was presented to improve data transmission efficiency and communication reliability. This system is also suitable for multi-channel extension. High-speed external memory chips were used to store pulse sequence binary (PSB) elements and acquisition data. In this way, the execution speed of pulse sequence and transmission efficiency of acquisition data can be greatly improved, thereby implementing the ultra-fast MRI sequences. A preliminary test has been accomplished on a Bruker 4.7 T MRI system, and high quality 1H spin-echo MRI images for a phantom and 23Na MRI images for NaCl solution with different concentrations have been obtained successfully. Results suggest that the design of the control system is feasible and reliable.
