A magnetic resonance apparatus with a safety structure for monitoring a safety-related function is provided. The safety structure includes a control path that is configured to control the safety-related function, and a first protect path and a second protect path. The first protect path and the second protect path are configured to acquire a safety-related parameter of the safety-related function. The first protect path is configured to identify a hazardous situation, independently of the control path and the second protect path, based on the safety-related parameter that the first protect path acquires. The second protect path is configured to identify a hazardous situation, independently of the control path and the first protect path, based on the safety-related parameter that the second protect path acquires. The first protect path and the second protect path are each configured to transfer the magnetic resonance apparatus into a safe state in a hazardous situation.
