Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PARALLEL DATA ACQUISITION FROM A MRI COIL ARRAY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000072050
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
Magnetic resonance data is acquired in parallel by an array of separate RF coils (2, 4, 6) arranged circumferentially around the imaging subject. The apparatus and method operate on the basis of determining an estimate of the sensitivity profile of each coil in the array.
