Patent ID: 8638097

Claim:
A method for generating magnetic resonance (MR) images or MR spectra of at least one partial area of a moving object having at least one repeating motion sequence that is repeated during consecutive motion states, the method comprising the steps of: a) recording a monitor signal of the repeating motion sequence; b) recording MR test data of the partial area of the object under known measurement conditions; c) associating the MR test data, recorded in step b), with the motion states of the repeating motion sequence; d) comparing the MR test data of the motion states to each other with respect to at least one parameter, the one parameter encompassing a static magnetic field B 0 , a magnetic field gradient of first order and/or a magnetic field gradient of higher order; e) determining a variation of the at least one parameter over the motion sequence; f) recording MR images or MR spectra of the partial area; g) constantly determining, during step f), an instantaneous motion state of the object in the motion sequence via the monitor signal; and h) constantly compensating, during step f), for the variation, determined in step e), of the at least one parameter by corresponding variation of the measurement conditions, wherein, during step f), a control signal is recorded which shows non-compensated disturbances, and MR images or MR spectra of the partial area are entirely or partially discarded or the recordings thereof are repeated when the control signal is outside of a predefined value range during the recording.
