Study Notes
K Space Basics
- The unit of K space is cycles per centimeter (cycles/cm).
Data Collection and Storage in K Space
- Data is collected in K space by sampling the magnetic resonance signal in a Cartesian grid.
- The data is stored in a 2D array, with each point representing the spatial frequency-domain information.
Center of the Echo in K Space
- The center of the echo represents the zero-frequency point in the frequency axis of K space.
Filling the Central Lines of K Space
- The central lines of K space are filled with data through the process of encoding, which involves the manipulation of magnetic field gradients.
Purpose of Altering the Phase Encoding Gradient
- Altering the slope of the phase encoding gradient after each TR (repetition time) is done to fill in the rest of the K space, allowing for the creation of a complete image.
