Abstract

For imaging an object subject to a cyclic motion, two or more imaging repetitions are carried out. Each of the imaging repetitions includes a sequence of equally spaced imaging events, wherein each imaging event has an event number, which corresponds to a respective predefined imaging parameter. A cycle duration of the cyclic motion is determined, a number of events per cycle is determined based on the cycle duration and a shift number is determined at least in part randomly. For a first imaging repetition, a starting number is determined depending on the number of events per cycle and the shift number. The first imaging repetition is carried out, wherein the respective sequence is started with an imaging event, whose event number is given by the starting number.
