Abstract

A method for generating a magnetic resonance (MR) image includes acquiring MR data from each of a plurality of RF coils and applying a prospective motion correction method to the MR data for each RF coil including determining a set of motion measurements that include a scan plane orientation associated with each data point in the MR data. The MR data for each RF coil is divided into a plurality of scan plane orientation groups based on motion changes. A set of unaliasing coefficients is generated for each scan plan orientation group and applied to the MR data to synthesize data for each RF coil. The acquired MR data and synthesized data for each RF coil is combined to generate a scan plane orientation data set. Each scan plane orientation data set is combined to generate a complete k-space data set.
