    摘要: A method is described for the wireless signal transmission of a measurement signal and/or a control signal between two functional components of a MR system. The measurement signal and/or the control signal is encoded into a RF transmit signal with a predefined orbital angular momentum and this RF transmit signal is transmitted between transmit antenna arrangements of the functional components. In addition, the embodiments relate to a local coil and an orbital angular momentum transmit unit with which the method may be carried out, and also a MR system that has a local coil and an orbital angular momentum transmit unit of this type.

    摘要: In a method, a computer-readable storage medium and a magnetic resonance apparatus for processing image data of the magnetic resonance apparatus, a representation of the degree of image blurring in magnetic resonance data that results from the acquisition of the data with view angle tilting is provided as an input to a processor. The processor calculates a convolution kernel from the input that mathematically relates the degree of blurring to the acquired data. The convolution kernel is applied either to the acquired data before reconstruction of an image therefrom or to the reconstructed image data, so that the resulting image is deblurred.

    摘要: A receive apparatus in a strong magnetic alternating field is disposed in a magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) system. The MRT system includes at least one receive apparatus for a magnetic resonance high frequency (MR-HF) signal. The receive apparatus includes a receive coil element for receiving the MR-HF signal, an optical modulator, in which an electrical control input is coupled to the receive coil element, and an optical output for outputting an output signal of the modulator. The optical modulator forms an optical demodulation device for the MR-HF signal. The optical modulator is coupled to a laser light source via an optical input that is configured to generate a laser light. A light intensity of the laser light varies periodically with a predetermined frequency.

    摘要: In a method and a magnetic resonance (MR) system and method to generate MR image data of a predetermined volume segment within an examination subject, multiple slices of the volume segment are simultaneously excited by at least one RF excitation pulse, and during the excitation a slice selection gradient is switched. The measurement signals from the multiple slices are acquired with multiple RF reception antennas, at least some of which are spaced along the propagation direction of the slice selection gradient. During the acquisition of the measurement signals the slice selection gradient is switched in order to achieve a spectral separation of the measurement signals of different slices. The MR image data are generated from the measurement signals.
