Patent ID: 7616795

Claim:
A method for imaging, comprising: acquiring, via a number of consecutive measurement scans, an object volume of an examination object; obtaining a series of main images by reconstructing each respective main image from measured data of each respective measurement scan and displaying the main images in temporal sequence; and calculating intermediate images to raise an image repetition rate and displaying the intermediate images between the main images, wherein the intermediate images are reconstructed at a prescribed instant within respective current measurement scans directly from a combination of measured data, acquired up to the prescribed instant, of the respective current measurement scan and measured data of a respectively preceding measurement scan that are still lacking for a complete reconstruction; wherein the combination of the already acquired measured data of the current measurement scan and the measured data of the preceding measurement scan is performed by augmenting the measured data of the current measurement scan with the measured data of the preceding measurement scan, wherein the current measurement scan corresponds to a first scanning section of a complete measurement scan and the preceding measurement scan corresponds to a remainder of a scanning section of the complete measurement scan and wherein the already acquired measured data of the current measurement scan and the measured data of the preceding measurement scan are combined in a transitional area of the first scanning section and the remaining scanning section using a cross-fading function such that in the transitional area a weighted mixing between the measured data of the current measurement scan and the measured data of the preceding measurement scan features in the reconstruction.
