Abstract
In a method and magnetic resonance system to determine a magnetic resonance (MR) image of an examination subject, wherein multiple coil-specific MR data sets that are acquired by multiple coils are used for the MR image. Each pixel of the MR image is determined from at least two coil-specific MR data sets of different coils (-), and each pixel has a pixel magnitude and a pixel phase. Multiple coil-specific base phases are determined that are respectively associated with one of the multiple coils. For each pixel multiple coil-specific pixel, magnitudes and multiple pixel phases are determined. A coil-specific pixel magnitude and a coil-specific pixel phase are respectively determined from a coil-specific MR data set of one of the multiple coils (-). The coil-specific pixel phases with the corresponding, coil-specific base phase, and the multiple coil-specific pixel magnitudes and the multiple coil-specific pixel phases are combined into the pixel magnitude and the pixel phase of the pixel.
