The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10) positioned in an examination volume of a MR device (1). It is an object of the invention to enable fast spiral MR imaging with a defined T2 contrast. The method of the invention comprises the following steps: - generating a number of spin echoes by subjecting the object (10) to one or 5 more shots of an imaging sequence, each shot comprising an RF excitation pulse (21) followed by a number of RF refocusing pulses (22), wherein modulated readout magnetic field gradients (23, 24) are applied in each interval between successive RF refocusing pulses (22), - acquiring MR signal data, wherein each spin echo is recorded along a spiral trajectory (31-33, 41-43) in k-space which winds around the k-space origin with varying radial distance, wherein the trajectory (31, 41) of at least one spin echo has a different rate of variation of the radial distance at least in a central k-space region compared to the trajectories (32, 33, 42, 43) of the other spin echoes, and - reconstructing an MR image from the acquired MR signal data. Moreover, the invention relates to an MR device (1) and to a computer program for an MR device (1).
