Abstract: In a method for a rapid determination of spatially resolved magnetic resonance relaxation parameters in an area of examination, a preparation pulse is radiated into the area of examination. During the relaxation of the longitudinal magnetization, spatially encoded magnetic resonance signals are acquired at a minimum of two different points in time using a fast magnetic resonance sequence. At each inversion time, an image data record is reconstructed from the magnetic resonance signals, which are elastically registered to each other. From the recorded image data records, values of magnetic resonance relaxation parameters are spatially accurately determined.

Abstract: Magnetic resonance reconstruction includes motion compensation. Inverse-consistent non-rigid registration is used to determine motion between shots. The motion is incorporated into reconstruction. The incorporation compensates for the motion resulting from the period over which the MR data is acquired.

Abstract: A method for clinical parameter derivation and adaptive flow acquisition within a sequence of magnetic resonance images includes commencing an acquisition of a sequence of images. One or more landmarks are automatically detected from within one or more images of the sequence of images. The detected one or more landmarks are propagated across subsequent images of the sequence of images. A plane is fitted to the propagation of landmarks. The positions of landmarks or alternatively the position of the fitted plane within the sequence of images is used for derivation of clinical parameters such as tissue velocities and/or performing adaptive flow acquisitions to measure blood flow properties.

Abstract: A high-resolution Subspace-Least Mean Square (S-LMS) method for harmonic and interharmonic measurement in power systems is provided. The eigenvector corresponding to the smallest eigenvalue is used to calculate the frequencies of the signal, and the least mean square method is used to estimate the amplitude and phase angle of harmonic and interharmonic components based on the computed frequencies and time domain measurements of the signal. Three schemes, namely sparsity, catch-and-pinpoint, and hybrid are presented. The S-LMS method provides accurate phasor, harmonic and interharmonic measurements for power system monitoring. The speed, accuracy, and resilience of the S-LMS method can be further increased by each of the three schemes. The method has a wide range of applications in power quality analyzers, synchronized phasor measurement, situational awareness, dynamic equivalencing, and smart meters.

Abstract: Parallel imaging magnetic resonance reconstruction is performed with temporal sensitivity. Rather than estimate the coil sensitivity once for each coil of an array, the coil sensitivity at different times is estimated. The movement of the patient may result in different sensitivities at different times. By using the time varying sensitivity in iterative, self-consistent, non-linear parallel imaging, real-time imaging may be provided with stable artifacts in view of increasing SNR even with higher reduction factors (e.g., 4-6).
