Abstract
A method for generating dynamic magnetic resonance images is provided. A cyclical magnetic resonance imaging excitation is applied for a plurality of cycles at a cycle rate. A plurality of magnetic resonance image echoes is acquired for each cycle. A plurality of frames of images is generated from the acquired plurality of magnetic resonance echoes at a frame rate that is at least twice the cycle rate, wherein each frame of the plurality of frames is generated from a plurality of echoes and wherein some of the plurality of frames are generated from magnetic resonance image echoes of adjacent cycles.
