ABSTRACT:
A method for obtaining a time sequence of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tomograms of a certain sectional plane in a measuring volume for observation of variations with time of signal intensities from the sectional plane. The method where k data sets f.sup.'k =f.sub.1.sup.'k . . . f.sub.n.sup.'k are recorded for NMR-tomograms with a low spatial resolution characterized by a parameter n in a time sequence with a waiting time t.sub.w between the acquisition of each data set f.sup.'k. The method where, in terms of time before k data sets f.sup.'k, a data set f=f.sub.1 . . . f.sub.m is recorded for an NMR-tomogram of the same sectional plane with a high spatial resolution characterized by a parameter m (i.e. m>>n). Subsequently, by means of said primarily recorded data set, new data sets f.sup.'k are reconstructed from the successively recorded k data sets f.sup.'k for NMR-tomograms of the sectional plane with a high resolution in space and time. For almost simultaneous observation of transient proceedings, the method can be combined with three-dimensional NMR recordings instead of sectional images.
