Title:
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING DEVICE AND MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/138229
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is, when executing a plurality of image capture methods in series with a magnetic resonance imaging device, to resolve discomfort or unease on the part of a subject, which arises from changes in volume or tone when a pulse sequence changes. Provided is a magnetic resonance imaging device, comprising a computation unit which computes estimated values of acoustic pressure levels which occur in an examination space as a result of the execution of each image capture sequence. A control unit compares the estimated values of the acoustic pressure levels of each image capture sequence which the computation unit has computed, and either controls at least one of the image capture sequences among the plurality of image capture sequences according to a preset adjustment condition, or adjusts the order of execution of the plurality of image capture sequences.
