Abstract
In a method for reconstructing a planar tomogram of an examination subject from magnetic resonance signals in inhomogeneous magnetic fields, original image elements are generated by means of multi-slice excitation, with the original image elements being disposed in the examination subject in several curved slices which are adjacent to one another in succession, the spatial position of the original image elements, are determined and image elements of a planar tomogram are generated from the original image elements which are arranged in an environment of the respective image elements.
