Abstract

Determining parameter values in image points of an examination object in an MR system by an MRF technique. Comparison signal waveforms, established using predetermined recording parameters, and each assigned to predetermined values of the parameters to be determined, are loaded. An image point time series of the examination object is acquired with an MRF recording method such that the acquired image point time series are comparable with the loaded comparison signal waveforms. A signal comparison of a section of the respective signal waveform of the acquired one image point time series is carried out with a corresponding section of loaded comparison signal waveforms to establish similarity values. The values of the parameters to be determined on the basis of the most similar comparison signal waveforms determined are determined, and then stored or output.
