In a magnetic resonance imaging method magnetic resonance signal samples
are received for a predetermined field of view by a receiving antenna
having a spatial sensitivity profile. The sampling in the k space
corresponds to the predetermined field of view in the geometrical space.
Folded-over images having folded-over pixel values are reconstructed from
the sampled magnetic resonance signals. Pixel contributions for spatial
positions within the predetermined field of view are calculated from the
folded-over pixel values and the spatial sensitivity profile of the
receiver antenna. The magnetic resonance image is formed from the pixel
contributions for spatial positions within the predetermined field of
view. Thus, aliasing or fold-over artefacts caused by a field of view
that is too small are avoided.
