ABSTRACT:
A control interface for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system provides extended, improved linker syntax/techniques that maximize reuse of program segments, allow optimal compromise between detailed representation and efficient sequence program design and maintenance, and permit uniform application of the loop syntax to link commands for MRI sequencers with a wide range of hardware implementations. The control interface provides, among other features, generalized loops at the link level; loop symbols representing loop identity can be associated with scope and/or range (with some kind of limited grammar in the link command itself that supports identification of scope and/or range); parameter tables that can be associated with loop symbols (any given table can be associated with N loop symbols in order to provide multidimensional sequences); multiple levels of loop nesting; and directed limited syntax that provides limited grammar, and range and syntax checking and requires the user to explicitly enter information into the interface.
