DCE MRI time axis

What is the time sample interval in DCE MRI data. That means, I have the signal intensities over time (30 time samples) of one pixel and I want to know what is the sample interval.

Is it the TR or should I read the DICOM information from each dicom image and compute the time? If I should compute it from the DICOM information, is it the "Content Time" tag that gives me the information? I am working in Matlab.

You can combine the image instance number(0020,0013) and slice location(0020,1041) to determine the image time points. For example, go through the images for one slice location, there will be N(time points) images, then you sort those images with instance number, you'll get the ordered image series with time points.
