摘要
A method of MR with spatial encoding to generate an image or spectroscopic data of an object of investigation inside an MR apparatus comprises the steps of (a) selecting a volume of interest within the object of investigation, (b) applying an RF pulse to generate a transverse magnetization within the object of investigation, (c) preparing a nonlinear phase distribution within the object of investigation by application of spatially encoding magnetic fields (SEMs), the SEMs comprising of a nonlinear gradient field or a combination of linear and nonlinear gradient fields, (d) effecting primary spatial encoding through application of SEMs, and (e) recording MR signals originating from the object of investigation. Step (c) or (d) thereby comprises applying a sequence of at least two SEMs, at least one of which contains a nonlinear field gradient and at least two of the SEMs having different field geometries. The sequence of SEMs is applied at a point in time from and including the excitation of the object of interest in step (b) up to and including the recording of the MR signals in step (e), to thereby introduce a temporal shift of the signals arising from spatially different locations within the selected volume of interest, that is to thereby introduce a shift of local spatial frequency components. A sampling window for recording of the respective MR signals is set and signals originating from the volume of interest are recorded in step (e) and undesired signals originating from outside the volume of interest are suppressed.
