1. A method for acquiring image data from a patient with a magnetic resonance imaging system, comprising the steps of: a) predefining a number of scan geometries for acquiring the image data from at least one region of interest relative to the patient, b) performing at least one scan for acquiring the image data in accordance with at least one of the predefined scan geometries, c) analysing in the image data a position of the region of interest to detect a deviation from the at least one predefined scan geometry, d) changing the at least one predefined scan geometry if said deviation exceeds a predetermined threshold value, and e) repeating steps b) to d) until a predetermined number of scans has been performed.
