Method and arrangement for suppressing coherent interference effects in magnetic resonance signals. IN NMR images which are constructed from, resonance signals for example using Fourier zeugmato-, graphy coherent interference effects resulting for, example, from "Leak-through" of NMR signals from one sequence to a next sequence of resonance signals can, cause artefacts to occur in the images which, depending, upon the kind of interference become manifest in the, image as interference lines ghost images or conspicuouc, dots. A method is proposed for reducing the effect of this interference by smearing the artefacts out over the image as noise. For this purpose, the phase of the reference …
