ABSTRACT:
A sensitivity encoding method (SENSE) is used to acquire an MR image having a reduced field of view. The number of aliased replicates caused by surrounding object boundaries is calculated for each image pixel location to obtain optimal aliasing artifact suppression without reducing image SNR.
