Image restoration from nonuniform static field influence in modified echo-planar imaging.
Experimental results of images restored from the influence of nonuniform static fields in modified echo-planar imaging are presented. The same restoration technique is used as that proposed for Fourier imaging. Experimental results show that both density variation and geometrical distortion can almost completely be eliminated in the restored image. Image restoration can relax the stringent requirement on the amplitude of the time-modulated gradient needed in modified echo-planar imaging.
