Abstract

A method for adapting activation parameters used to generate a pulse sequence when activating a magnetic resonance system is provided. The method includes determining stimulation values for the pulse sequence based on predefined activation parameters. The stimulation values represent a stimulation exposure of a patient. Test regions that exhibit stimulation maxima are identified in the pulse sequence, and the identified test regions are tested with respect to compliance with a predefined stimulation limit value.
