    摘要: A method for detection of a number of pilot tone signals, a magnetic resonance apparatus, and a computer program product are disclosed. The method includes receiving receive signals according to an MR sequence by an RF receive unit of an MR apparatus, wherein the receive signals include an MR signal and the number of PT signals. The number of PT signals each have a different pilot tone frequency. The number of PT signals are received according to the MR sequence in a number of PT receive time segments having a duration of at least tm, interrupted by pauses. The method further includes digitizing the receive signals by sampling with a first sampling frequency f1 and detecting the number of PT signals from the digitized receive signals by sampling the digitized receive signals with a second sampling frequency f2, wherein the second sampling frequency f2≥2/tm.
