Method for displaying MRI images including the following steps: displaying a plurality of different images one after the other obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance image acquisition, each of which images is different with respect to at least a part of the other images due to the fact that the plane of the displayed image corresponds to a different section plane through a body or part thereof under examination having a predetermined different position and/or a predetermined different orientation with respect to the body under examination and to a reference system; and the passage from displaying an image to display a further image is achieved by control means which define the position and/or orientation of different section planes of different images.
