[Abstract] Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has been widely used in clinical routine, especially in cardiovascular disease diagnosis, due to its prominent advantage. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) can evaluate the anatomy, function, myocardial perfusion and characterization of heart non-invasively in one-stop. Cardiac and respiratory motion is major problem in CMR imaging. It makes CMR imaging be more challenging than any other imaging modality. As the performance of MR hardware and software system uptakes, especially for the substantial increasing of the strength of magnet, the imaging technique is improved persistently. The authors try their best to describe the fundamental physics and key technological points of MR, especially CMR in four successive articles. In first article, the physics of MR and progress of MR image generating were summarized.
