1. A method for improving the image homogeneity of image data from phase-cycled steady state sequences in magnetic resonance tomography, the method comprising: calculating the sum of squares (SOS) and the maximum intensity projection (MIP), pixel-wise, from the image data of the participating sequences; and obtaining a result image, optimized with regard to image homogeneity, by pixel-wise combination of the sum-of-squares image and MIP image.
