ABSTRACT:
A method of and system for parallel imaging using a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system is provided. The method comprises acquiring a plurality of magnetic resonance (MR) signals from a receiver coil array placed about a subject in the MRI system, where the receiver coil array has a plurality of receiver elements arranged in rows and, during application of a readout gradient in a frequency encoding direction, shifting receiver frequencies by a selectable amount for each row of the array in order to shift a limited field of view (FOV) in the frequency encoding direction.
