Abstract
A method for avoiding artifacts in image data reconstructed from measurement data acquired by means of a TSE (turbo spin echo) sequence with a coil having a plurality of antenna elements associated with one channel respectively. The method includes loading the measurement data, acquired with the coil, of all channels of the coil; loading at least the first three echo signals respectively of an echo train from phase correction measurement data of all channels acquired with the coil in relation to the TSE sequence; determining a step value d for each channel of the coil from the loaded phase correction measurement data, which value describes a signal drop in the three successive echo signals of the phase correction measurement data; channel-by-channel manipulation of the measurement data as a function of the step value of the respective channel; and reconstructing image data by taking into account the manipulated measurement data.
