Abstract
A fat suppressed diffusion image determination apparatus, a corresponding method and a corresponding computer program determine a diffusion weighted magnetic resonance image (DWI) of an object. The fat suppressed diffusion image determination apparatus includes a diffusion reference image providing unit for providing a diffusion reference MR image of the object, a fat image determination unit for determining a fat image from the diffusion reference MR image, a diffusion weighted image providing unit for providing a diffusion weighted MR image of the object, a fat suppressed image determination unit for determining a fat suppressed diffusion weighted MR image using a combination of the diffusion weighted MR image and the fat image.
