Abstract

In a method and apparatus for generating a magnetic resonance (MR) image MR data are acquired from a subject as datasets in parallel with multiple RF coils, with first parallel dataset being acquired with a first parameter set and at least one further parallel dataset being acquired with a second parameter set. A first intermediate image dataset and at least one further intermediate image dataset are reconstructed with at least one of (a) the first intermediate image dataset being reconstructed from said first parallel dataset using a calibration data item derived from said at least one further parameter set, and (b) said at least one further intermediate image dataset is reconstructed from said at least one further parallel dataset using a calibration data item derived from said first parameter set. A combination image dataset is generated by combining said first intermediate image dataset and said at least one further intermediate dataset.
