1. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable by an electronic data processing device to perform a method including: identifying a magnetic resonance imaging sequence defined by an imaging protocol type of tissue to be imaged, and parameter values for a set of parameters of the imaging protocol; computing a contrast signal score for the magnetic resonance imaging sequence respective to a contrast type to be scored using a scoring equation; and determining a contrast type for the magnetic resonance imaging sequence based on the computed contrast signal score.
