Abstract

Method for ECG triggering a measuring sequence of a magnetic resonance device, with ECG signals of a patient being detected over two channels, with the triggering of the measuring sequence being carried out when the ECG signal of at least one channel, said ECG signal being subjected to a digital signal processing, exceeds a threshold value, and at the same time the derivation of the ECG signal or the norm of the derivation of the ECG signal lies within a defined interval in both channels.
