Abstract

See full text

An MRI system includes a gradient compensation system which appends magnetization reset gradient waveforms to imaging gradient waveforms produced during a scan. The magnetization compensation gradients maintain the residual magnetization in the MRI system at a constant level which reduces image artifacts.
