Abstract:
The embodiments relate to methods and to magnetic resonance tomography systems having a shim system, where the shim system includes at least one global shim coil in an area surrounding the bore of the magnetic resonance tomography system, and where the shim system includes a local shim coil in a local coil of the magnetic resonance tomography system with a shim controller, where the shim controller embodied to define shim currents for the global shim coil and for the local shim coil.
