Abstract

In a method and magnetic resonance (MR) apparatus for performing an adjustment of the MR system, an examination object under is divided into at least one excitation volume. First adjustment parameters for the at least one excitation volume of the object, and second adjustment parameters for the at least one excitation volume of the object, which differ from the first adjustment parameters are determined. First MR signals are acquired from the at least one excitation volume using the first adjustment parameters. Second MR signals are acquired from an excitation volume using the second adjustment parameters. A first MR image of the at least one excitation volume is reconstructed using the first MR signal. A second MR image of the at least one excitation volume is reconstructed using the second MR signal.
