Synopsis

Keywords: System Imperfections: Measurement & Correction, ArtifactsRF Interference can severely degrade the performance of an MR system. Several solutions such as RF shielding, waveguides and special filters are used to send and receive data to the MRI scanner. These solutions constitute significant part of MR installation and maintenance cost. RF interference in multi-channel receive MR system is strongly correlated across multiple receive channels. This correlation is exploited in this manuscript to remove/suppress the artifacts in the MR images arising due to RF interference. Initials results are demonstrated on 1.5T commercial MRI scanner with data acquired with open RF cage door.
