Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for processing movement signals detected during a magnetic resonance scan of a patient, and to a corresponding magnetic resonance device and a computer program product. According to the method, RF pulses are generated by a RF transmitting unit of a magnetic resonance device in order to excite nuclear spins in the body of the patient. Magnetic resonance signals are generated by the excited nuclear spins. For spatial encoding of the magnetic resonance signals, gradient pulses are generated by a gradient coil unit of the magnetic resonance device. The magnetic resonance signals are detected by a RF receiving unit of the magnetic resonance device. Furthermore, movement signals of the patient are detected by a movement detection unit during detection of the magnetic resonance signals, and these are processed by a processing unit.
