Abstract

Motion insensitive magnetic resonance scanning is provided when generating a signal from spins of a selected portion of a subject by acquiring a truncated signal comprising most of the signal's central portion and one wing of the usual two wings. Full image data is obtained by conjugating the truncated signal. The image thus obtained is relatively motion insensitive.
