Abstract

In a method and arrangement for detection of the position of an examination person on a table in a magnetic resonance system, the examination person on the table is moved relative to the magnetic resonance system, RF pulses are radiated while the examination person is moved through the magnetic resonance system, the resulting magnetic resonance signals caused by the RF pulses are detected and the position of the examination person is determined using the acquired magnetic resonance signals.
