Abstract
A method corrects for a phase error in an MR image, in which MR signals of an examination subject are acquired, complex images of the examination subject are generated, phase differences of the phase values for various image points of the complex images are established with an averaged phase value of image points from a first surrounding region of a respective image point, and a phase correction is executed dependent on how well the phase differences correspond to a predetermined phase value, where the order of the image points in which the phase correction is implemented is dependent on how well the phase values in the image points correspond to the predetermined phase value.
