Abstract

Peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) in a subject is reduced during a magnetic resonance imaging scan of the subject using a magnetic resonance system () having three physical gradient axes. The magnetic resonance imaging scan is planned by selecting an imaging protocol and positioning a field-of-view of the scan obliquely through the subject. An estimate of the PNS for the planned magnetic resonance imaging scan is determined. A gradient polarity of at least one logical gradient axis of the scan that is not parallel to any of the physical gradient axes is inverted, and an estimate of the PNS for the magnetic resonance imaging scan with the inverted polarity is determined. The gradient polarity which has the lowest PNS is selected. The magnetic resonance imaging scan is performed on the subject with the selected gradient polarity.
