The invention relates to a method of MR imaging of an object (10) placed in an examination volume of a MR device (1). It is an object of the invention to enable MR signal acquisition in a single scan providing the necessary information for electric properties imaging (EPT), namely a phase map as well as tissue boundaries. The method of the invention comprises the following steps: —subjecting the object (10) to a multi echo steady state imaging sequence or a fast spectroscopic imaging sequence comprising RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients, wherein two or more echo signals are generated after each RF excitation; —acquiring the echo signals; —deriving a magnitude image and a phase map from the acquired echo signals, which phase map represents the spatial RF field distribution induced by the RF pulses in the object (10); and —reconstructing an electric conductivity map from the magnitude image and from the phase map, wherein tissue boundaries are derived from at least the magnitude image. Moreover, the invention relates to a MR device for carrying out this method as well as to a computer program to be run on a MR device.
