ABSTRACT:
An MRI system performs a calibration prescan in which NMR projections are produced using either a spiral acquisition pulse sequence (FIG. 3) or a series of pulse sequences at a corresponding series of projection angles. The signal energies of the projections are summed to produce NMR calibration data. The signal energy in a prescribed region of interest may be calculated to provide the optimal RF transmit power when using local coils.
