Abstract
A method for correcting one or more artifacts within a multi-spectral magnetic resonance image is provided. The method includes acquiring a plurality of spectral bins each including a plurality of voxels and corresponding to a different frequency of MR signals emitted by an imaged object. The plurality of voxels of each spectral bin correspond to the frequency of the spectral bin so as to define a spatial coverage of the spectral bin. The method further includes expanding each spectral bin by increasing the spatial coverage of the spectral bin, and generating the multi-spectral magnetic resonance image based at least in part on the expanded spectral bins.
