Abstract
A method for measuring a gradient field of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) system based on a diffusion effect uses a non-uniform field magnet, an NMR spectrometer, a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier, an RF coil, and a standard quantitative phantom with known apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and time constant for decay of transverse magnetization after RF-pulse (T2). A plurality of sets of signals are acquired by an NMR sequence with different diffusion-sensitive gradient durations or different echo spacings and the magnitude of the gradient field is calculated by fitting based on the plurality of sets of signals. The method does not require an additional dedicated magnetic field detection device, has a short measurement time, is easy to use with the NMR system, and is convenient to complete gradient field measurement at the installation site, thereby improving the installation and service efficiency of the NMR system.
