摘要:
In an MRI apparatus, an imaging that produces almost no sound is implemented without extending an imaging time, not only for three-dimensional imaging, but also for two-dimensional imaging. A gradient pulse in a pulse sequence provided in the MRI apparatus is adjusted by using a basic waveform having a distribution of frequencies where strength dwindles substantially as the frequency increases from zero, and the waveform is convex upward or downward varying smoothly. An application time and strength are adjusted so that almost no sound is produced. Any imaging executable by a conventional pulse sequence can be implemented without producing almost any sound, using the conventional pulse sequence with little change.
