Abstract: A computer-implemented method of reconstructing a motion-compensated magnetic resonance image uses raw k-space data acquired at a first resolution over successive respiratory and/or cardiac cycles of a patient. After binning data based on corresponding motion states derived from these cycles, the resolution of the binned K-space data in each bin is reduced. This is done by selecting a sub-group of binned k-space data. Bin images are reconstructed from the reduced-resolution data, and histogram-equalised versions of the reconstructed reduced-resolution bin image generated for each bin. Motion fields are estimated and interpolated to the first resolution such that motion data can be incorporated into a final reconstruction of a motion compensated image.
