By means of NMR probe based magnetic field monitoring, the spatio-temporal magnetic field evolution and hence k-space trajectory can be observed and used to improve image reconstruction. Continuous field monitoring based on time interleaved acquisition of sets of fast relaxing probes enables sequence independent monitoring over arbitrary durations without limitations on k-space range, but suffered so far under accumulated errors in the calculated trajectories due to violations of the assumption that the probes behave like point sources. The presented k-space and time domain calibration method addresses these problems and enables continuous monitoring for image reconstruction.
