Description

Various methods have been used to recover NMR images with non-uniform magnetic fields. We describe a new method which recovers the image, and an exact solution for the spatially dependent magnetic inhomogeneities from data obtained from commonly used direct Fourier transform pulse-gradient sequences, at a negligible cost of extra computation.
