Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In an embodiment, a method includes processing magnetic resonance (MR) data according to a process including applying a density filter to blades of k-space data rotated about a section of k-space. Each blade may include a first set of encode lines weighted in a first signal weighting and a second set of encode lines weighted in a second signal weighting. The density filter may be configured to preferentially weight each blade in the first signal weighting to produce blades of weighted k-space data.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: processing magnetic resonance (MR) data according to a process comprising: applying a density filter to blades of k-space data rotated about a section of k-space, each blade comprising a first set of encode lines weighted in a first signal weighting and a second set of encode lines weighted in a second signal weighting; and wherein the density filter is configured to preferentially weight each blade in the first signal weight…
