ABSTRACT:
In Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) imaging systems it is known to excite resonance in a slice of a body and to sample the resonance signals in the presence of a field gradient across the slice. The gradient field is pulsed. Where such systems analyse the signal to be for many sets of strips in the slice, each set in a different direction, for analysis by techniques used in computerized tomography (CT) X-ray systems, it is now proposed that the field gradient pulsed should reach a maximum after not more than one third of its total duration to balance the spatial frequency emphasis (FIG. 1e) in the CT processing.
