Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging device for measuring cerebral oxygen metabolism includes a memory configured to store computer-readable instructions and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions such that the one or more processors is configured to acquire UTE (ultrashort echo-time)-AUSFIDE (alternating unbalanced SSFP-FID & SSFP-ECHO) image data, VS-VSL (velocity-selective venous spin labeling) image data, and pCASL (pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling) image data, process a plurality of preliminary information data for quantitative model processing and process CBF (cerebral blood flow) information data, acquire variable information (Yv) to derive an oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) and a cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO) in order to acquire a 3-dimensional oxygen metabolic rate map of an entire brain, derive the oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) and the cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO) and generate an oxygen metabolic rate map image as a magnetic resonance image.
