Abstract

The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object () positioned in an examination volume of a MR device (). It is an object of the invention to enable efficient and high-quality non-Cartesian MR imaging, even in situations of strong Binhomogeneity. In accordance with the invention, the method comprises: —subjecting the object to an imaging sequence comprising at least one RF excitation pulse and modulated magnetic field gradients, —acquiring MR signals along at least one non-Cartesian k-space trajectory, —reconstructing an MR image from the acquired MR signals, and —detecting one or more mal-sampling artefacts caused by Binhomogeneity induced insufficient k-space sampling in the MR image using a deep learning network. Moreover, the invention relates to a MR device () and to a computer program.
