A method of performing magnetic resonance imaging is provided. Sampling requirements are used to define a three dimensional cone trajectory differential equation. The equation is solved to obtain a starting point.

A method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is provided. A magnetic resonance excitation is provided.

A method of dynamic resonance imaging is provided. A magnetic resonance imaging excitation is applied.

A method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is provided. A scanning path is specified. Gradient amplitude is determined as a function of arc-length along the scanning path in k-space.

A method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is provided. A magnetic resonance excitation is provided. A magnetic field is read out through k-space using winders, wherein some of the winders overlap for a length of the winders.

A manifestation of the invention provides a method for slice selective excitation for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A B.sub.0 field is applied.

A method for performing spectroscopy using an interleaved readout for at least two species. A B.sub.0 field is applied.

In tensor MRI, a set of k-space MRI data points is acquired that includes one or more k-space subsets of MRI data points. An object orientation (or spatial transformation) corresponding to each of the k-space subsets is determined.

Stanford researchers have further developed a new technique for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The technique called hyperpolarized carbon-13 MRI dramatically increases the sensitivity for molecular processes.

Real-time imaging of a moving object such as the heart uses fast imaging with steady precession (FISP) traversing spirals in k-space.
