Abstract :
In parallel imaging of MRI, the sensitivity of each coil plays a key role to final results. In this paper, we proposed a robust method based on heat diffusion equation to evaluate the sensitivity of each coil element. By this method we can remove or weaken the effects of noise, artifacts, dividing overflows, or other calculation errors. The experiment demonstrates this method get efficient results.
