ABSTRACT:
In a method for providing an MR image of a section taken through an object, wherein the section is acquired in the presence of in-plane translational motion of the object, an MR system is operated to acquire a set of imaging data points from the section, the set of imaging data points being contaminated by phase errors resulting from the motion. The MR system is further operated to acquire a plurality of correction data point sets, each correction data point in one of said sets being acquired along an alignment line or other trajectory and at a location coinciding with the location of one of the imaging data points. The imaging data points respectively coinciding with the correction data points comprise, collectively, a subset of the imaging data points. The phase difference between each correction data point set and its corresponding subset of imaging data points is determined, and then used to remove the phase errors from the set of imaging data points.
