Respiration induced resonance offsets cause artifacts
when imaging the breast. These artifacts lead to
erroneous PRF temperature measurements. A phase
correction method is applied to k-Space data to correct
the respiration induced artifacts and improves accuracy
of PRF temperature measurements while allowing free
breathing of the patient, and without the need to have a
multibaseline library. Two FID within-sequence phase
correction navigators are collected and used to estimate
the slope of the phase offset (radians/ms) during each
TR. The phase of the k-Space lines acquired each TR is
adjusted by the slope during that TR times TE.
