Abstract
A three-dimensional magnetic resonance image dataset of an object is acquired using a multi-shot imaging protocol in which several k-space lines are acquired in one shot. The three-dimensional k-space includes a central region and a periphery, wherein the sampling order of k-space lines differs between the central region and the periphery. At least one k-space line from each shot passes through the central region, whereas the periphery includes regions, which are sampled by k-space lines from a subset of the plurality of shots.
