论文摘要
目的:描述开源硬件和软件包的当前属性和功能,该软件和软件包正在国际上开发,目的是为低成本MRI提供廉价但灵活的平台。方法:本文在不同的设置中描述了从50到360吨的三个不同的设置,所有设置都使用Marcos控制台获取数据,而不同类型的软件接口(自定义构建的GUI或PulseQ覆盖层)来获取数据。结果:图像均来自健康志愿者的体内和体内,以证明可以从Marcos硬件/软件连接到不同低场磁体的图像质量。结论:此处介绍的结果表明,诊所中常用的许多不同序列可以相对快速,轻松地将其编程到开源系统中,即使在开发的早期阶段,也可以产生高质量的图像。硬件和软件都将继续开发,这是本文鼓励其他团体加入该国际财团的目的。
Purpose: To describe the current properties and capabilities of an open-source hardware and software package that is being developed by many sites internationally with the aim of providing an inexpensive yet flexible platform for low-cost MRI. Methods: This paper describes three different setups from 50 to 360 mT in different settings, all of which used the MaRCoS console for acquiring data, and different types of software interfaces (custom-built GUI or PulSeq overlay) to acquire the data. Results: Images are presented from both phantoms and in vivo from healthy volunteers to demonstrate the image quality that can be obtained from the MaRCoS hardware/software interfaced to different low-field magnets. Conclusions: The results presented here show that a number of different sequences commonly used in the clinic can be programmed into an open-source system relatively quickly and easily, and can produce good quality images even at this early stage of development. Both the hardware and software will continue to develop, and it is an aim of this paper to encourage other groups to join this international consortium.
