ABSTRACT:
In a method for determination of a diffusion-weighted image of an examination subject in a magnetic resonance system, a diffusion-weighted data set is acquired with magnetic diffusion gradients being activated; a diffusion-weighted image of the examination subject is calculated using this diffusion-weighted data set; dephasing or spoiler gradients are activated in order to reduce artifacts in the diffusion-weighted image due to additional signal echoes and the position and/or amplitude and/or polarity of the dephasing gradients is/are selected dependent on the diffusion gradients.
