Abstract
In an method for detecting a closed loop in MRI: 3D coordinates of key characteristic points of an MRI examination subject are acquired; the 3D coordinates of the key characteristic points are adapted to a 3D body standard model, to obtain a 3D virtual body model of the examination subject; 3D surface regions of pre-designated body parts are extracted from the 3D virtual body model; based on pre-defined body parts where skin contact is likely to occur, a distance between 3D surface regions of two body parts in each body part pair are calculated; and in response to the distance between the 3D surface regions of the two body parts in any body part pair being less than a preset first threshold, a risk of a closed loop in the examination subject is determined.
