Abstract

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for frequency drift correction of magnetic resonance CEST imaging, and a medium and an imaging device. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, in the frequency drift correction module, exciting a target slice by using a small flip-angle radio-frequency pulse, and acquiring a single line of free induction decay signals or two lines of non-phase encoding gradient echo signals; secondly, respectively calculating a value of the main magnetic field frequency drift according to phase information and an acquisition time of the single line of free induction decay signals or the two lines of non-phase encoding gradient echo signals; then adjusting the center frequency of the magnetic resonance device in real time according to the calculated value of the main magnetic field frequency drift, and achieving the real-time correction of main magnetic field frequency drift; and finally, performing CEST imaging.
