A sequence description defining the events for traversing k-space during a medical imaging scan is defined through a k-space graphical view, thereby providing an easy programming interface for MR physicists. From the k-space view, data elements can be generated by object-oriented sequence description components in the form of predefined sequences. The data elements generated by the predefined sequences are stored in a table, the lines in the table defining an ordered list of pulse segments associated with each trajectory in k-space, the table can also hold information on time ordering or sequencing of k-space trajectories, desired triggering for each k-space trajectory and similar data objects. The k-space description/configuration of sequences is then translated to a group of downloadable sequence components.
