Abstract:
A method is for carrying out an automatic adjustment of an MR system, including a number of receive coils. In such cases, a number of partial spectra in a number of receive coils are measured for an excitation volume of an examination object. The number of partial spectra are evaluated via an algorithm, at least one characteristic value being determined for each partial spectrum and a decision being further made with the aid of the number of characteristic values to determine whether the partial spectra fulfill a quality criterion. Finally, adjustment parameters of the MR system are optimized on the basis of the number of partial spectra.

Claim (Index 13):
An MR system, embodied to carry out an automatic adjustment of the MR system, comprising:\n an MR control unit; a storage unit; and a number of receive coils, the storage unit being embodied to store control information executable by the MR control unit, the MR control unit being embodied, upon execution of the control information, to: set adjustment parameters for an excitation volume of an examination object; measure a number of partial spectra in the receive coils for the excitation volume of the examination object; evaluate the number of partial spectra via an algorithm, at least one respective characteristic value being determined for each respective partial spectrum of the number of partial spectra and a decision being made with aid of the number of the at least one respective characteristic values to determine whether the number of partial spectra fulfill a quality criterion; optimize the adjustment parameters for the excitation volume of the examination object via an algorithm, and repeating the measuring and evaluating with the optimized adjustment parameters, in response to the quality criterion not being fulfilled; and measure MR signals from the excitation volume by applying the adjustment parameters, in response to the quality criterion being fulfilled.
