Claim:
1. Method of MR imaging of at least a portion of a body of a patient placed in an examination volume of a MR device, the method comprising the steps of: subjecting the portion of the body to a first imaging sequence for acquiring a first signal data set; subjecting the portion of the body to a second imaging sequence for acquiring a second signal data set, wherein the imaging parameters of the second imaging sequence differ from the imaging parameters of the first imaging sequence and wherein the first and/or second signal data sets are undersampled; reconstructing a MR image from the second signal data set by means of compressed sensing and wherein the compressed sensing reconstruction is constrained by a support, which support is derived from the first signal data set and wherein the imaging parameters of the second imaging sequence differ from the imaging parameters of the first imaging sequence in such a manner that the second signal data set is of a different contrast type or of a different resolution than the first signal data set.
