Abstract
A method and system are provided for detecting a position of a periodically moving organ in a MRI examination. MR images of an examining person including a periodically moving organ are provided over a plurality of periodic cycles of the periodically moving organ. Based on the provided MR images, a pixel frequency is associated with each pixel of the MR images. Using the associated pixel frequencies and the positions of the pixels within the MR images, the position and the frequency of the periodically moving organ are determined.
