ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing B0 inhomogeneous effects in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method includes: obtaining a high-resolution volumetric MR image of the patient, such high-resolution volumetric MR image having B0 inhomogeneous effects; calculating distortion within obtained the high-resolution volumetric MR image of the patient; and correcting the B0 inhomogeneous effects in the obtained high-resolution volumetric image using the calculated distortion.
