Abstract
A receiver of a magnetic resonance imaging system and a magnetic resonance imaging system are provided. The receiver includes a receiving end for receiving an analog magnetic resonance signal from a local coil of the magnetic resonance imaging system, a sending end for sending a digital magnetic resonance signal to an image reconstruction apparatus of the magnetic resonance imaging system, at least two digital processing channels connected to the sending end for digitizing the analog magnetic resonance signal to the digital magnetic resonance signal, and a channel selection unit connected between the digital processing channels and the receiving end for selecting a corresponding digital processing channel from the digital processing channels according to type information about the local coil. The embodiments may be compatible with many types of local coils without re-designing the local coils, which significantly reduces the cost of the system.
