Abstract
A magnetic resonance (MR) image may be created from MR data by receiving the MR data, applying a transform to the MR data, where a result of the applying is an image space representation of the MR data, determining a wrapped phase map of the image space representation of the MR data, obtaining an unwrapped phase map based on the wrapped phase map, scaling the unwrapped phase map into a B0 field map, reconstructing the MR image based on the MR data, correcting the MR image based on the B0 field map, and outputting the MR image. The scaling may be free of accounting for effects on the MR data by artifact sources secondary to B0 field inhomogeneities.
