    摘要: A magnetic resonance apparatus has an RF antenna unit, a gradient coil unit and an RF shield, the conductor structures of which are independent of one another. The RF shield is arranged between the RF antenna unit and the gradient coil unit, a first RF field return volume is arranged between RF the antenna unit (1, 29, 55A, and the gradient coil unit, the RF field return volume closes RF magnetic field lines of the RF antenna unit and is bordered by the RF shield on the side of the gradient coil unit. The conductor structure of the gradient coil unit occupies a first region. A second conductor-free region is within the first region, on the side facing the RF antenna unit, between a primary gradient coil unit and a secondary shim gradient coil unit of the gradient coil unit. The second conductor-free region is at least partially surrounded by the conductor structure of the gradient coil unit and is fashioned as a second RF field return volume in connection with the first RF field return volume. The RF shield proceeds between the RF field return volumes and the conductor structure of the gradient coil unit. The RF antenna unit is closer to the data acquisition region of the magnetic resonance apparatus than the gradient coil unit.

    摘要: A local coil unit for a magnetic resonance apparatus, which radiates a radio-frequency field into an examination subject, has a housing and at least a part of the housing is formed of an insulating dielectric material that passively compensates for an inhomogeneity in the high-frequency field in the subject. The material has a relative dielectric value εr of greater than 50, preferably greater than 100, and a dielectric loss factor tan δ of less than 2.5×10−2, preferably less than 1×10−3. In the dielectric material displacement currents are generated which create an additional magnetic field that compensates for the minima in the B1 field as a result of the eddy currents arising in the patient due to the radio-frequency radiation.

    摘要: An arrangement for radiation of a radio-frequency field into an examination subject has a local coil unit with a housing. An insulating dielectric material is embodied at least at one part of the housing in order to passively compensate an inhomogeneity of the B1 field that occurs in the examination subject. An adjustment arrangement allows for fixed but detachable provision of the insulating dielectric material at the housing part.
