Abstract
A method for performing a scan of a subject utilizing a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system includes triggering a prescan by an MRI scanner of the MRI system upon the subject being setup on a table of the MRI scanner and the table reaching an iso-center of the MRI scanner. The method includes subsequent to the prescan, triggering a calibration scan of the subject with the MRI scanner, wherein the calibration scan is an acoustic noise suppressed MRI scan. The method includes obtaining calibration data from the calibration scan. The method includes obtaining prescription parameters for subsequent scans of the subject with the MRI scanner from the calibration data. The method includes triggering at least one scan of the subject with the MRI scanner based on the prescription parameters.
