Abstract: Capturing MR image data of an examination object using an MR apparatus, including: performing a balanced steady-state free precession sequence with phase progress of 180 degrees per repetition time using the MR apparatus; in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence, providing a white-marker gradient in order at least partially to balance a dephasing caused by a magnetic-field-changing object in the examination object; capturing image data of the examination object using the MR apparatus at an echo time; and adjusting a phase development between phase magnetization of a first and second materials, which form an interface in the examination object, in the balanced steady-state free precession sequence using the MR apparatus, wherein due to the adjusting of the phase development before an effect of the white-marker gradient, a co-phasal alignment of a magnetization of the first material and of the second material at the interface is effected at the echo time.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance tomography unit for localizing metallic objects and an operating method are provided. In one act of the method, an excitation pulse is used to excite nuclear spins in a region surrounding a compact metallic object. Magnetic resonance data is acquired with samplings along a plurality of trajectories, where the samplings take place using a bSSFP sequence, and the nuclear spins are dephased by a gradient. A position of a geometric focal point of the compact metallic object is ascertained based on a position of a visual focal point of acquired artifacts.
