Abstract
A magnetic resonance examination method comprises acquisition of a set of magnetic resonance signals from magnetic spins in an object by way of a receiver antenna, the magnetic resonance signals' signal levels are related to an independent reference level that is independent of the receiver antenna's sensitivity to form a calibrated signal level of the magnetic resonance signals, the calibrated signal levels are recorded in terms of a relative density of ordered transverse spins (DOTS). The independent reference level may be derived from the signal-to-thermal-noise ratio. The calibrated signal level in terms of DOTS in μM/T reflects predominantly a tissue property (of (a voxel of) the patient to be examined) as well as details or characteristics of the acquisition sequence used.
