ABSTRACT:
In MRI data acquisition according to the GRASE (gradient and spin-echo) sequence, trajectories (562, 563) in k-space are arranged such that different coordinates (k.sub.x, k.sub.y) in that space have monotonic relations with parameters (t, .tau.) that are related to physical effects, such as magnetic field inhomogeneities, T.sub.2 *-effects and motion, that causes artefacts in the image. By doing so, the artefacts are reduced.
