Although dynamic imaging is presently used for various applications, it is still limited by the temporal resolution. In this paper, we present a new technique that uses a random phase‐encoding strategy to facilitate faster and smoother update of images and to improve the temporal resolution in dynamic studies. The technique was implemented on a conventional clinical scanner and demonstrated with various in vivo studies. Technical details, simulations, and experimental results are described. Images from experimental studies indicate that the new technique is robust in generating dynamic images and can be potentially utilized for clinical applications.
