Classification: CPC G  A | IPC A  G

Claim 0:
1. An imaging system comprising:
a magnetic resonance imaging (MM) apparatus configured to:
(i) execute a first multi-echo pulse sequence to excite a target region;
(ii) acquire a plurality of baseline k-space images of the target region, each baseline image being associated with an echo in the first multi-echo pulse sequence;
(iii) execute a second multi-echo pulse sequence to excite the target region; and
(iv) acquire a second plurality of k-space images, each of the second plurality of k-space images being associated with an echo in the second multi-echo pulse sequence and at least one of the second plurality of k-space images being under-sampled so as to be missing information compared to the baseline k-space images; and

a computation unit configured to reconstruct a target image based at least in part on at least one baseline k-space image and at least one of the second plurality of k-space images.
