The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10) placed in an examination volume of a MR device (1). The method comprises the steps of: subjecting the object (10) to an imaging sequence comprising multi-slice RF pulses for simultaneously exciting two or more spatially separate image slices, - acquiring MR signals, wherein the MR signals are received in parallel via a set of RF coils (11, 12, 13) having different spatial sensitivity profiles within the examination volume, and reconstructing a MR image for each image slice from the acquired MR signals, wherein MR signal contributions from the different image slices are separated on the basis of the spatial sensitivity profiles of the RF coils (11, 12, 13), and wherein side-band artefacts, namely MR signal contributions from regions excited by one or more side-bands of the multi-slice RF pulses, are suppressed in the reconstructed MR images on the basis of the spatial sensitivity profiles of the RF coils (11, 12, 13). Moreover, the invention relates to a MR device for carrying out this method as well as to a computer program to be run on a MR device. |
