Phase imaging is especially important at high to ultra
high fields to both map local field inhomogeneities and
highlight important anatomical structures. Obtaining a
proper coherent phase image from the combination of
multiple receiver coils, however, is challenging. Here,
we introduce a generic referenceless phase combination
approach able to eliminate most artifacts in phase
imaging without the need of a special acquisition
protocol or geometric assumptions for the coils.
