Abstract
In a hybrid CSI procedure for a magnetic resonance device, for a predeterminable volume of interest of the hybrid CSI procedure, the magnetic resonance device automatically defines an increased volume that exceeds the volume of interest such that all magnetic resonance signal-emitting substances of interest contained in the volume of interest are excited in order to create the magnetic resonance signals to be evaluated spectroscopically, and a saturation volume directly adjoining the volume of interest is automatically defined and saturated before the excitation by the magnetic resonance device such that no unwanted magnetic resonance signals are created from outside the volume of interest.
