Abstract

An MRI system performs a calibration prescan in which NMR projection signals are produced using a calibration pulse sequence. The readout gradient employed during the acquisition of each NMR projection signal is rotated during the signal sampling such that the projection angle changes during the acquisition. The center of the field of view is weighted more heavily in the calculation of the optimal RF transmit power to provide a more accurate setting when using local coils.
