Abstract

In a magnetic resonance imaging method an echo train is generated of successive magnetic resonance signals from an object to be examined. The magnetic resonance signals are received with a degree of undersampling and by means of a receiver antennae system having a spatial sensitivity profile and the degree of undersampling is set on the basis of an amount of phase evolution due to a magnetic susceptibility distribution of the object to be examined.
