  • Title: Simple correction method for k-space trajectory deviations in MRI.
    Author: Duyn JH, Yang Y, Frank JA, van der Veen JW.
    Journal: J Magn Reson; 1998 May; 132(1):150-3. PubMed ID: 9615415.
    Abstract:
    A method is presented to correct for the imperfections of spatial encoding gradients in MRI. The approach is simple and fast, can be performed with standard scanner hardware, and does not require separate measurements with reference phantoms. The new method, using the MR signal to accurately measure the k-space trajectory of the imaging sequence, allows for correction of gradient hardware imperfections and eddy-current effects. Initial measurements are presented which demonstrate the efficacy of the method to correct images acquired with spiral and EPI scan techniques.
