Abstract
A method is provided for recording, with a magnetic resonance device, magnetic resonance data of a target region of a patient moved by their breathing. An optical camera arranged in a bore of the magnetic resonance device directed onto the patient is used. Image data of the patient recorded by the camera before and/or during the recording of the magnetic resonance data is evaluated to form breathing information describing the breathing state and the breathing information is used for triggering and/or movement correction and/or assessment of a process in which a patient holds their breath.
