Abstract

See full text

A method of MRI entails recording and storing MR signals from an object to produce an old set of data. A further measurement of the object is then initiated at a later time to record new MR data, whereby k-space is undersampled in the further measurement. The old data are corrected for changes in the new position of the object, for changes in the sensitivity and exact spatial positioning of the receiver coils as well as for changes in the actual field shimming. The old and new data are then combined to create a new, high resolution image of the object.
