Patent ID: 8896311

Claim:
A measurement device for obtaining images of an object to be measured by virtue of magnetic resonance, the measurement device comprising: an RF coil configured to keep the object therein; a magnetic field generator for generating a static magnetic field to excite magnetic resonance of the object kept in said RF coil; a mover for moving one of the object and said magnetic field generator to thereby move the object in the static magnetic field generated by said magnetic field generator; a measurement unit for applying a gradient magnetic field in at least one of a moving direction “y” in which the object moves relative to said magnetic field generator, and a direction “x” perpendicular to said moving direction “y” to thereby obtain image signals of the object by virtue of at least one of phase-encoding and frequency-encoding without stopping the object or said magnetic field generator while they are being moved by said mover; and a correction unit for eliminating influence on said image signals derived from movement of the object in said moving direction “y” to provide corrected image signals.
