摘要:
A magnetic resonance antenna has longitudinal antenna rods in a birdcage structure, and antenna ferrules connecting the longitudinal antenna rods at their ends in terms of radio-frequency. The magnetic resonance antenna has a number of radio-frequency switching elements that interrupt, in terms of radio-frequency, at least one part of the longitudinal antenna rod to detune the eigen-resonance frequency of the antenna with respect to an operating magnetic resonance frequency. For this purpose, the magnetic resonance antenna is provided with two switching lines, directed to the radio-frequency switching elements from outside of the birdcage structure, the switching lines having a ring line connected thereto running annularly on or in the birdcage structure and transverse to the longitudinal antenna rods.

A sandwich structure which attenuates the PET radiation minimally, is used as a support tube for the transmit antenna. In at least one embodiment, it includes a thin strong inner wall, a likewise thin and strong outer wall and an interior of the support tube which is of the honeycomb type or is made of foam material.

A patient positioning couch includes an illumination apparatus having at least one light source that is arranged in the patient positioning couch. The patient positioning couch is capable of being placed in an examination area of a medical device. Through the arrangement of the at least one light source of the illumination apparatus of the patient positioning couch, it is always ensured that the illumination does not lose its location relative to a patient or another object positioned on the patient positioning couch, even if the position of the patient positioning couch changes, e.g. if the patient positioning couch is moved into or out of the examination area. At the same time an especially space-saving illumination of the examination area can thus be achieved.
