Abstract
In a correction method and apparatus for a magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging image, a diffusion weighted imaging image is corrected based on a launch site correction factor and/or a receiving field correction factor. The launch site correction factor is used for correcting inhomogeneity of a launch site, and the receiving field correction factor is used for correcting inhomogeneity of a receiving field. The imaging sequence of the diffusion weighted imaging image is thereby improved and the corresponding image reconstruction of the diffusion weighted imaging image, and the homogeneity of the diffusion weighted imaging image also can be improved, without measuring the intensity of the launch site, which significantly reduces the correction workload and is easy to automate.
