Method for measuring and adding limb angle indicia to MR images

MRI images are acquired as the patient moves a joint through a range of motion. The angle of joined limbs is measured during the scan, and the measured angles are attached to corresponding images for display therewith. In one embodiment the angles are measured using interleaved navigator acquisition...

Zusammenfassung:MRI images are acquired as the patient moves a joint through a range of motion. The angle of joined limbs is measured during the scan, and the measured angles are attached to corresponding images for display therewith. In one embodiment the angles are measured using interleaved navigator acquisitions from which limb orientation can be determined.
