Techniques are disclosed for capturing scan data of an examination object via a magnetic resonance system. The techniques include capturing a first set of a diffusion-weighted scan data by excitation and, in an acquisition phase, acquiring a first echo signal, wherein before the acquisition phase in a diffusion preparation phase, diffusion gradients are switched for diffusion encoding of the scan data, The techniques additionally include capturing a second set of non-diffusion-weighted scan data by excitation and, in an acquisition phase, acquiring a second echo signal, wherein before the acquisition phase, in a diffusion preparation phase, the same diffusion gradients are switched as are switched for diffusion encoding of the scan data of the first set of diffusion-weighted scan data, although they have no influence on the second echo signal. Diffusion-weighted and non-diffusion-weighted scan data is thereby captured, having identical disturbances caused by eddy currents induced by switched gradients.
