    • The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system comprising an examination volume (9), a main magnet system (17) for generating a main magnetic field (B o ) in the examination volume, a gradient magnet system (25) for generating gradients of the main magnetic field, and a control system (37) for compensating disturbances of the magnetic field caused by mechanical vibrations of the MRI system. According to the invention, the control system is a feed-forward control system which determines a necessary compensation for said disturbances in dependence on an electric current in the gradient magnet system according to a predetermined response relation. Since in most MRI systems the mechanical vibrations are predominantly caused by the altering electric currents in the gradient magnet system and by eddy currents induced thereby, the invention provides an accurate and reliable compensation for said disturbances, so that artifacts and other distortions of the reconstructed image caused by said disturbances are considerably reduced.

    • A magnetic resonance imaging method comprises application of a pulse sequence which includes one or more pulses. The pulse sequence having an intrinsic scan time based on a full sampling rate in k-space for a predetermined full ' field-of-view' and a reference temporal pulse shape of the magnetic gradient pulses. A series of magnetic resonance signals is acquired by means of a receiver antennae system having a spatial sensitivity profile. Undersampled signal acquisition is applied to acquire undersampled magnetic resonance signals at a predetermined reduced sampling rate in k-space, the sampling rate being reduced by a reduction factor relative the full sampling rate. The pulse sequence being is during an actual signal scan time is applied. The actual signal scan time being larger than the intrinsic signal scan time times the reduction factor. The undersampling allows a smaller acquisition rate of the magnetic resonance signals and smaller slew rates and amplitudes of the magnetic gradient pulses and lower peak RF-fields of the refocusing pulses. Hence, lower acoustic noise and lower specific absorption rate are achieved.
