ABSTRACT:
In a method for dynamic frequency detection of the resonance frequency in magnetic resonance spectroscopy, by measuring navigator signals at the same point in time in each of a number of successive sequence passes, and by comparing the navigator signals, a frequency shift of the resonance frequency is determined on the basis of which the respective individual spectrum obtained from each sequence repetition is corrected with respect to the measured frequency shift.
