Method for registering images of a subject with a magnetic resonance system and magnetic resonance system for the implementation of the method

In a system and method for the registration of images of a subject using magnetic resonance, the positions of one or more markings arranged at the subject and movable together therewith are detected with an acquisition system operated independently of and in parallel with the diagnostic image generating and registration operation of the magnetic resonance system. These positions serve as a criterion for identifying the orientation of the subject relative to the diagnostic imaging system, and the tomogram plane of interest is re-adjusted dependent on the positions of the markings.
