Abstract:
The quality of magnetic resonance imaging systems has improved to the point that motion is a major limitation in many examinations. Translational motion in the imaging plane causes the phase of the data to be corrupted. An algorithm using computer post-processing is proposed to correct the phase of the data, and hence remove the artifact. This algorithm has superior convergence properties to an earlier algorithm, which is achieved by incorporating additional prior information specific to the situation. The algorithm is verified using a Shepp and Logan phantom with simulated motion in the imaging plane. It is shown that the algorithm can correct both periodic and random motion, and that the algorithm is not significantly degraded when noise is present.

As the drone's propellers rotate, an upward force is generated that counteracts the force of gravity, enabling the drone to lift off from the ground. This initial movement of the drone is along a straight path, representing a form of translational motion. In this phase, every point on the drone...
