Abstract
The invention provides for a magnetic resonance imaging system () for acquiring magnetic resonance data () from an imaging zone (). Execution of the instructions causes a processor () controlling the MRI system to: acquire () imaging magnetic resonance data () with radio frequency excitation of the radio frequency system enabled; acquire () noise radio frequency data () using at least one RF noise detection coil, wherein the noise radio frequency data is acquired simultaneously with the imaging magnetic resonance data; acquire () calibration magnetic resonance data () with radio frequency excitation of the radio frequency system disabled; acquire () reference radio frequency data () using the at least one RF noise detection coil, wherein the reference radio frequency data is acquired simultaneously with the calibration magnetic resonance data; and calculate () a noise calibration () using the reference radio frequency data and the calibration magnetic resonance data.
