Claim One:
1. An MR imaging system for generating a multi-band (MB) image of a region of interest, comprising: a radio frequency (RF) signal generator and a magnetic field gradient generator which are together configured to provide a series of RF pulse and magnetic field gradient sequences for acquisition of MB image data, and an image processing unit configured to generate the MB image of the region of interest based on the MB image data, wherein the series of RF pulse and magnetic field gradient sequences comprises at least one adaptive acquisition parameter, wherein: the series of RF pulse and magnetic field gradient sequences comprises at least one RF pulse and magnetic field gradient sequence configured to simultaneously excite a plurality of slices using a particular slice FOV shift factor; and the adaptive acquisition parameter comprises a further slice FOV shift factor that is different from the particular slice FOV shift factor and is used to simultaneously excite at least one further slice.
