A magnetic resonance imaging system comprises an RF-excitation module to generate one of several RF-excitations and a gradient module to generate one of several magnetic gradient pulses, a control unit controls the RF-excitation module and the gradient module and performs an acquisition sequence containing a succession of RF-excitations and gradient pulses. The acquisition sequence comprising several acquisition segments in which magnetic resonance signals are generated, in respective segments different contrast types occur. Individual acquisition segments have one or several repetitive acquisition units, magnetic resonance signals in an individual acquisition unit pertaining to the same contrast type. This approach of acquisition of different contrast type per group of acquisition segments allows optimisation of the acquisition of each of the contrast type independently of the contrast type of other groups of acquisition segments.
