Abstract
A magnetic resonance RF field is produced in a magnetic resonance imaging system that includes a main magnetic field apparatus and an object-bearing table movable relative to the main magnetic field apparatus and on which a local coil system is arranged. The local coil system includes a plurality of transmission elements. A current location of the object-bearing table relative to the main magnetic field apparatus is established. The transmission elements are automatically connected based on the current location of the object-bearing table.
