A hysteresis effect-based Field Free Point-Magnetic Particle Imaging (FFP-MPI) method includes the following steps: acquiring a hysteresis loop model of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIOs); calculating to obtain a Point Spread Function (PSF) of the SPIOs on the basis of a sinusoidal excitation magnetic field and the hysteresis loop model of the SPIOs; acquiring an original reconstructed image of FFP-MPI on the basis an FFP moving track and a voltage signal; performing deconvolution on the original image with respect to the PSF considering an hysteresis effect, so as to obtain a final reconstructed image; the artifacts and phase errors of image reconstruction caused by the hysteresis effect of the SPIOs with large particle sizes are reduced, the deficiency in reconstruction by the traditional reconstruction method that ignores the hysteresis effect is overcome, the reconstruction speed and the resolution are greatly improved, and the application range of the SPIOs is expanded.

A multi-color quantitative magnetic nanoparticle imaging method and system based on trapezoidal wave excitation solves the problem that the existing technology cannot implement multi-color quantitative magnetic particle imaging. The method includes: constructing, based on hysteresis effect and hysteresis inertial growth differences of n superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIOs) under trapezoidal wave excitation, an equation set of quality of n SPIOs in a to-be-tested sample formed by any composition of n SPIO standard products; solving the equation set to obtain the quality distribution of the to-be-tested sample at position r; and performing rearrangement, color assignment, and image merging on the quality distribution to implement multi-color quantitative imaging of various particles in magnetic particle imaging (MPI). The method broadens the functions of MPI to realize multi-color quantitative imaging, such that MPI has greater potential for application in the medical field.
