Correction of Magnetic Field Inhomogeneity Effects Using Conjugate Phase Reconstruction

Low field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners provide a unique low-cost alternative to conventional MRI scanners. Nevertheless, low-field scanners come with drawbacks such as reduced signal-to-noise ratio and resolution, and also distorted images caused by magnetic field inhomogeneity and non-linear gradient fields. Despite this, it still...

Correction of Field Inhomogeneities in Low-Field MRI During Image Reconstruction: Image Distortion Correction

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners are a crucial diagnostic tool for radiologists. They are able to render two­ and three­dimensional images of the body without exposure to harmful radiation. MRI systems are, however, costly to build and maintain. This adversely impacts access to these scanners in developing regions. In an effort to...
