A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging system equipped with real-time imaging capability and methods of interactively prescribing geometry to excitation profiles of structure of interest, are disclosed herein. The MR imaging system includes a graphical user interface for displaying and receiving prescription commands, a display screen for displaying MR images and the graphical user interface, and an input device for inputting prescription commands. The MR imaging system allows an operator to prescribe the boundary geometry of a subsequent imaging volume and to rapidly view the prescribed boundary imaging sections prior to committing to the subsequent imaging volume acquisition. The MR imaging system also allows the operator to retrieve boundary geometry of a previously prescribed imaging volume and to rapidly view the imaging sections corresponding to the retrieved boundary geometry prior to initiating the image volume acquisition.
