A method is disclosed for recording and displaying medical imaging data records of a body part including fatty tissue. In at least one embodiment, the method includes recording an emission-tomographic data record of the body part recording a magnetic-resonance imaging data record of the body part using a recording sequence designed such that fatty tissue can be displayed such that it can be distinguished from other types of tissue identifying regions in the emission-tomographic data record, which regions correspond to fatty tissue, using the magnetic-resonance imaging data record and modifying the emission-tomographic data record in those regions that correspond to fatty tissue. Further, at least one embodiment relates to a correspondingly designed device for evaluating and displaying medical imaging data records of a body part comprising fatty tissue.
