Abstract
Object specific in-homogeneities in an MRI system are corrected. Prescan information available at the MR imaging system is determined. The prescan information includes at least object specific information of an object located in the MR imaging system from which an MR image is to be generated. The prescan information does not include a B1 map of the MRI system with the object being present in the MR imaging system. The prescan information is applied to a trained machine learning module provided at the MRI system. The trained machine learning module determines and generates shimming information as output. The shimming information is applied to a shimming module of the MR imaging system, wherein the shimming module uses the shimming information to generate a corrected magnetic field B0.
