A method and a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus provide subject/object motion detection and correction during a MRI scan. The method includes generating via a magnetic resonance scanner a magnetic field gradient and a radio-frequency signal for the MRI scan. The radio-frequency signal contains a successive repetition of pulse sequences, each pulse sequence starting with a radio-frequency excitation pulse. A time between two successive radio-frequency excitation pulses are defined as a repetition time. Detecting, from a readout signal emitted in response to the pulse sequence, time-points in which motion has occurred. Interleaves are automatically created. A sampling of the k-space is performed by arranging k-space MRI readout signals acquired over each repetition time of the pulse sequence into several groups of interleaves of uniform k-space sampling reconstructing separately each subset of interleaves for obtaining low resolution MR images.
