ABSTRACT:
A method for removing image artifacts in MRI created when data acquisition is synchronized to a physiological and therefore uneven intervals. The method simultaneously records both image data from the MRI scanner as well as the exact interval between each data acquisition. The image data is then modified according to the timing file to create a image data file free from signal variations and artifacts resulting from the uneven data sampling intervals.
