METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CORRECTING K-SPACE TRAJECTORIES

Various methods and systems are provided for correcting k-space trajectories. In one embodiment, a system comprises a coil configured to generate a magnetic field, a plurality of magnetic field probes positioned at the coil and configured to measure the magnetic field, and a controller communicatively coupled to the plurality of magnetic field probes and including instructions stored in non-transitory memory that when executed cause the controller to: receive measurements of the magnetic field from the plurality of magnetic field probes; calculate corrections to positions of acquired magnetic resonance signals in spatial-frequency space based on the received measurements; apply the corrections to the positions to generate corrected magnetic resonance signals; and reconstruct an image from the corrected magnetic resonance signals. In this way, image artifacts caused by eddy currents can be reduced.
