MRI system and method for performing time resolved MR imaging of an object with grouped data acquisition

Abstract:

An MRI system for performing time resolved MR imaging of an object with grouped data acquisition is provided. The MRI system includes an MRI controller in electronic communication with a magnet assembly and operative to sample a group of data points within a first region of a k-space. The first region includes a central sub-region and a first peripheral sub-region. The MRI controller is further operative to sample a group of data points within a second region of the k-space. The second region includes the central sub-region and a second peripheral sub-region different from the first peripheral sub-region.
