Figure 5

Half (partial) Fourier imaging in the phase-encoding direction (vertical direction), reducing the number of phase-encoding steps necessary to reconstruct the image, and thus reducing the scan time. The non-acquired phase-encodings are filled with complex conjugate data of the other half plane. In the example shown in this figure, 20 additional phase-encodings have been acquired in the center of k-space for phase-coherence.
