  We present the analysis of radio interferometric 2-s images from a MeerKAT
observation of the repeating fast radio burst FRB121102 on September 2019,
during which 11 distinct pulses have been previously detected using high time
and frequency resolution data cubes. In this work, we detected 6 out of the 11
bursts in the image plane at 1.48 GHz with a minimum peak signal-to-noise ratio
(S/N) of 5 {\sigma} and a fluence detection limit of 0.512 Jy ms. These
constitute the first detections of a fast radio burst (FRB) or a radio
transient using 2-s timescale images with MeerKAT data. Analysis of the fitted
burst properties revealed a weighted average precision of 1 arcsec in the
localization of the bursts. The accurate knowledge of FRB positions is
essential for identifying their host galaxy and understanding their mysterious
nature which is still unresolved to this day. We also produced 2-s images at
1.09 GHz but yielded no detection which we attributed to the spectral structure
of the pulses that are mostly higher in strength in the upper frequencies. We
also explore a new approach to difference imaging analysis (DIA) to search for
transients and find that our technique has the potential to reduce the number
of candidates and could be used to automate the detection of FRBs in the image
plane for future MeerKAT observations.
