Abstract: Method for controlling image appearance features in MRI systems, image appearance feature control user interface operating according to the method and MRI system including the user interface. There is provided an automatic scan planning module including a memory in which a look up table or a database of examination kind specific settings of the MRI system is stored univocally associating a specific kind of examination with a factory pre-defined experimentally and empirically determined optimum combination of settings of the MRI system, the automatic scan planning module controlling a user interface displaying a list of alternative specific kinds of examinations and providing a selection organ for the user, for selecting one of the specific kinds of examinations. Upon input of the selection of the kind of examination, the automatic scan planning module configures the MRI system automatically with the image acquisition settings corresponding to the selected specific kind of examination.
