A computer-implemented method for determining a subset of coil elements for capturing a magnetic resonance tomography recording, comprises: providing a target volume in a scout view, and determining a plurality of subsets of coil elements from among the plurality of coil elements, wherein individual subsets are configured different from one another. The method further comprises: determining at least one quality criterion for each subset of coil elements, wherein the at least one quality criterion of a corresponding subset of coil elements relates to an image quality in the target volume, dependent upon the corresponding subset of coil elements; determining the subset of coil elements from the plurality of subsets, based on the corresponding at least one quality criterion; and providing an information item regarding which of the plurality of coil elements are included by the subset of coil elements.

In a method and a magnetic resonance (MR) system for functional MR imaging of a predetermined volume segment of THE brain of a living examination subject, an RF excitation pulse is radiated into the subject and at least one magnetic field gradient is activated, and MR data of the predetermined volume segment is acquired beginning at a predetermined echo time after the RF excitation pulse. The echo time is in a time period of 10 &#x3bc;s to 1000 &#x3bc;s.
