Abstract

In one embodiment a method for processing a reconstruction image is disclosed. The method includes recording the reconstruction image by a magnetic resonance device having a gradient coil to generate a gradient field. The method further includes distortion-correcting the reconstruction image. The method further includes back-transforming the distortion-corrected reconstruction image, by an image processing device, into a distortion-uncorrected reconstruction image, the back-transforming uses an algorithm having a first input value describing a real gradient field given at a real measuring point of the signal.
