Image and k-space

Learning objectives

After reading this chapter, you should be able:

  • To explain the relation between time domain, frequency domain and Fourier transform
  • To define: spatial frequency, phase and magnitude
  • To draw the effects of a point in k-space on the image
  • To state the relations between RF pulses, gradients and navigation in k-space
  • To describe the k-space trajectory with a spin echo sequence
  • To link contrast, spatial resolution and field of view to k-space
