A magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) unit includes a field magnet, a transmitter, and a transmitting antenna. The MRT unit also has a transmission interference suppression facility with a transmission interference suppression controller, a plurality of sensors, and a transmission interference suppression antenna. The transmission interference suppression facility is configured to pick up, with the sensors, an excitation signal of the transmitter, determine, with the transmission interference suppression controller, a transmission interference suppression signal as a function of the excitation signal of the transmitter, and emit the signal via the transmission interference suppression antenna, so that at a predetermined location outside of the MRT unit, an electromagnetic alternating field of an excitation signal emitted by the transmitter via the transmitting antenna is attenuated. The sensors are arranged in a near field of the transmitting antenna, and the predetermined location of the attenuation is in a far field of the transmitting antenna.
