Abstract
For each k-space line, a time period is defined that starts with the application of the RF pulse directly prior to the acquisition of the respective k-space line, and ends at the time point of the echo during the acquisition of the MR data of the respective k-space line. This time period is set shorter for those k-space lines that lie in a central region of k-space than for k-space lines that lie outside of the central region.
