MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING METHOD INVOLVING SUB-SAMPLING

摘要

A magnetic resonance imaging system is provided with a system of emission antennae (13), for example, emission coils, for generating RF excitation pulses. Such RF excitation pulses generate magnetic resonance signals from an object to be examined. The system of emission antennae has a spatially inhomogeneous emission profile. The inhomogeneous emission profile is used for the partial spatial encoding of the magnetic resonance signals in addition to the encoding on the basis of magnetic gradient fields. The magnetic resonance image is reconstructed on the basis of the inhomogeneous emission profile.
