A method is for performing an angiographic measurement of a main measurement region of a patient via a magnetic resonance system. An embodiment of the method includes performing at least one overview measurement to generate overview-measurement data defining, using the overview-measurement data, the main measurement region and a first measurement region, the first measurement region differing from the main measurement region performing a first time-resolved measurement in the first measurement region defined to generate first time-resolved measurement data detecting an injected contrast agent bolus in the first measurement region using the first time-resolved measurement data determining a flow rate of the injected contrast agent bolus detected setting at least one measurement parameter of the angiographic measurement according to the flow rate determined and performing the angiographic measurement of the main measurement region of the patient in the magnetic resonance system using the at least one measurement parameter set.
