摘要：
A method of employing a central computer database (18) for supporting a characterization of tissue by magnetic resonance fingerprinting measurements, includes: exciting nuclei of a subject of interest by applying (50) a radio frequency excitation field B1 generated according to a magnetic resonance fingerprinting sequence (38), acquiring (52) magnetic resonance imaging signal data from radiation emitted by excited nuclei of the subject of interest, transferring (54) a magnetic resonance fingerprinting data set (42) to the central computer database (18), retrieving (56) a predefined dictionary from the central computer database (18), matching (60) the acquired magnetic resonance imaging signal data to the retrieved dictionary by applying a pattern recognition algorithm to determine a value (40) or a set of values (40) for at least one physical quantity (T1, T2), adding (62) at least the determined value (40) or the determined set of values (40) as a new entry of an associated medical data set (36) to the central computer database (18), and making (64) the new entry of an associated medical data set (36) accessible to users of the central computer database (18). A magnetic resonance fingerprinting data collection and analysis system (10) includes a central computer database, a data receiving unit (20), a data output unit (22) and a data analysis device (26) configured to carry out the method.
