Classification: CPC A  G | IPC G

Claim 2:
3. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon instructions for performing magnetic resonance (MR) imaging on a subject, which when executed by at least one processor, cause the following method to be performed:
applying a first pulse sequence to a region of interest of the subject using an RF transmission system of an MR imaging apparatus;
in response to applying the first pulse sequence to the object, obtaining initial k-space data D1 using an RF receiving system of the MR imaging apparatus;
constructing a spatial factor Ux and a temporal factor Φ from the initial k-space data D1 using a reconstruction workstation;
determining a transformation T that maps the initial k-space data D1 to the temporal factor Φ using the reconstruction workstation;
applying a second pulse sequence to the object using the RF transmission system;
obtaining real-time k-space data D2 at time t using the RF receiving system; and
constructing a real-time image A, where A=UxTD2, real-time image A showing the region of interest of the subject at time t using the reconstruction workstation.
