Abstract
A system for generating magnetic resonance images includes an MRI scanner for obtaining data from a pre-scan and data from a selected scan. A processor determines whether the data from the selected scan includes errors based on the data from the pre-scan, and requests the MRI scanner to reacquire the data from the selected scan if data is found to include errors, or converts the data from the selected scan to an image if no error is found. A display device displays the image converted by the processor.
